Special appearance by Dave Stringer
“Attending the yoga teacher training in Maya Tulum, Mexico with Amazing Yoga was very exciting for me as I was achieving an ambition to train as a yoga teacher. Spending a week in Paradise at the same time with three inspirational instructors and a wonderful group of like-minded people made it wonderful. The yoga teacher training lives up to it’s name and was truly Amazing! The standard of teaching was so polished and the course was brilliantly put together. The resort was exquisite, the food divine! I left Mexico with confidence in my ability, a stronger body, new friends from across the globe and some precious memories!”

The Training
The Amazing Yoga Teacher Training Program is one of the most comprehensive and proven training systems in the country. This training will allow you to dive right into teaching yoga. We have seen countless students go on to teach immediately after completing this training. Many have gone on to open their own yoga studios.
The course will focus on: exploring the postures in depth, sequencing, assisting, practice teaching, preparing your classes, and working with different body types. Also, we will discuss anatomy/physiology and how it relates to postures and alignment. It is a system of yoga that has such a strong foundation, that no matter what else you may go on to study or teach, you will have a solid blueprint from which to work.
It is a program that will empower you not just in your teaching, but also in how you choose to live. It is an opportunity to learn how to mold the perfect blend of technical knowledge and radiant spirituality into your teaching style. The focus will be on all aspects of teaching and living the principles of yoga within a contemporary context and language. It is an exclusive opportunity to grow, connect, and contribute to your overall growth as a teacher and/or as a person.
Teaching is simply sharing the knowledge of experience. Our goal as teachers is to cultivate an understanding of yoga and attempt to live that understanding. Let the teaching be our life. Teaching yoga goes beyond the yoga classroom. This training is not about simply parroting information. This training does not support a rigid or dogmatic expression of yoga. This teacher training will transform your life and the lives of others. You will develop the skills to successfully lead a dynamic power vinyasa class. We will cover the fundamental postures and how to sequence the asanas in a fluid manner. This training is for aspiring and experienced teachers or students who want to deepen their practice.
The Amazing Yoga Style
Amazing Yoga is an evolving and dynamic style of yoga that has changed over the years to meet the needs of students. Karen and Sean have trained extensively with Baron Baptiste over the past 10 years. Baron Baptiste’s style is influenced by the hatha yoga teachings of Krishnamacharya and his students Iyengar and Desikachar. We have also trained with many other talented vinyasa yoga teachers throughout the country. Additionally, we incorporate our own teachings and personal style. The end result is a power vinyasa yoga style that is accessible to almost everyone.
Ultimate Course Goal
Whatever the direction our journey may be, our goal is to create masters by facilitating a well-rounded understanding of yoga and yoga practice through the knowledge of experience. Another goal is to create excitement about and support for our yoga practice which spills out of each one of us to all that we touch, as well as cultivating the art of sharing, teaching, instructing, and giving. Many graduates have gone on to teach immediately. Some have opened their own studios or quickly found a teaching job in their community. We look forward to meeting you. Please keep in mind, that class size is limited. Trainings do sell out. Feel free to contact Sean or Karen anytime, email: programs@amazingyoga.net, or call the Shadyside studio at 412-661-1525.
"The Amazing Yoga Teacher Training Program transformed my dream of becoming a yoga teacher into reality. The yoga training’s accessible curriculum provided me with skills necessary to be both confident and effective in the classroom, as well as enriched my personal practice. Whether your goal is to share your love of Power Vinyasa Yoga with others or simply deepen your own understanding of asana, this yoga teacher training course is the next logical step on your yogic journey."
