YOUR  FAMILY  ACROYOGA TRAINING  JOURNEY

This course is a special offering for AcroYoga practitioners but is open to those who have completed three modules of our Kids Yoga Training already and are stoked to focus on Family AcroYoga. We encourage you to connect with Deven prior to applying to prepare you and make your training the best it can be for where you are at.

​

Begin with our online course, Introduction to Kids Yoga Philosophy. Continue in-person for 2 modules offered multiple times per year that will hone your understanding, practice teaching, and integration. These can be taken ala carte for continuing education units (CEU), or in sequence to prepare for the full certification.

 

The full certification allows for one of two focuses: To become a Certified Kids Yoga Teacher, or to become a Certified Family AcroYoga Teacher. These foci are specialized and will allow you to share these practices formally as an extension of your teaching practice. If you are already an AcroYoga Teacher, you get a discount. Please choose that option when you register. 

 

Again, if you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to

contact our team directly.
