training offered on fearlessYOGA.fearlessYOGA is Yoga Built for Justice"Developed and instructed in a social justice framework that relates how we engage on the mat to how we behave in the world, the practice is returned to its rightful place as a personal practice for inner-life development, liberated from the mainstream, thus ownable by agents of social change."-- angel Kyodo williams, Founder, Center for Transformative ChangeUnique highlights and perspectives of the fYTT curriculum: * Technique: fearlessMeditation: practice of the body * Teaching Methodology: Social Justice "From Oppression to Liberation" & "Paradigms of Freedom" * Philosophy: Introduction to Sanskrit * Teaching Methodology: "Language of Freedom" Communication * Philosophy: "Returning to Source: Yoga Sutras of Patañjali Study" * Anatomy & Physiology: "Every Body DIfferent Body: The Structure of Limits" * Lifestyle: Eating & WellnessfearlessYOGA has been developed as a yoga practice specifically oriented towards activists. The precise language and approach of the "Effort & Release" teaching framework directly corresponds with the seminal yogic text, the Yoga-Sutras. The method illuminates the habit-patterns of aggression and over-doing by introducing postures in incremental levels of engagement. Alternatively, it encourages activists to learn to "back off" of over-reaching in exchange for

discovering one's own internal pace and alignment.The fearlessYOGA Teacher Training is a certification program that empowers the student-practitioner with both certification as a fearlessYoga Teacher (C-fYT) while also meeting the minimum requirements to become a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher at the 200-hour level (RYT200).We welcome you to live, learn, and transform here, while immersing yourself in a residential, yogic lifestyle. fYTT has been designed in ways that will cultivate your ability to thrive in your personal and professional life and graduate as a unique fearlessYoga teacher, with a well-developed connection to a deep source of inspiration--and the
