Introduction to Yoga Therapy Weekend

Learn the foundations of Yoga Therapy in this introductory weekend workshop

All Yoga has the potential to be therapeutic, but Yoga Therapy differs from general yoga classes and sessions. This informative, engaging weekend workshop will clarify what Yoga Therapy is, how it differs from Yoga generally, and how it uses the tools of yoga – comprehensively and specifically – to provide highly individualised, specific Yoga practices to help people through whatever concerns they are facing.

This weekend workshop is for everyone interested in deepening their understanding of Yoga – it provides 9hrs CPD for existing Yoga Teachers.
