| Master's Path Training
We represent integrity and unity. This is experienced through many different schools of yoga. The faculty at Yoga Rasa are not selected based on which school of yoga they come from but rather on their level of devotion to personal practice; commitment to personal growth through study, enthusiasm, living yoga (particularly the first two limbs); and the needs of the studio.
"There must come a new renaissance reaching much deeper than the one which led us out of the middle ages, a great renaissance when humanity will find that ethical values are the highest truth and the most useful value. This will liberate the human race from the senseless reality in which it is now vegetating." - Albert Schweitzer
Yoga Rasa is one of the most comprehensive programs available.

To empower students to be successful, well-rounded yoga teachers, the Yoga Rasa Master’s Path Certification Program offers a solid foundation in each of the following aspects of yoga:
PHILOSOPHY OF YOGA
Introduction to ancient philosophical and psychological texts in a non-dogmatic approach creates a foundation for the yoga student evolving into yoga teacher. He or she can draw upon this to further develop the expanded world view necessary to empathize with the variety of needs that will be presented from future students.
SCIENCE OF YOGA
Asana, alignment, biomechanics, modifications, uses of props, breath, vinyasa krama, Ayurveda, therapeutics and science of thought.
ART OF YOGA
Ultimately the joy of teaching yoga will rise from teaching yoga as an art: drawing upon all teaching skills learned in Yoga Rasa training, the student's life experience, and developing the ability to clearly and divinely articulate and disseminate the technique, fluidity, power and beauty of yoga.
Yoga Rasa Programs
We have 4 programs at Yoga Rasa, all of which exceed the standards of the national Yoga Alliance registry as a Registered Yoga School (RYS), qualifying you to be a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) upon successful completion. Our programs are summarized below.
Each level is considered a Krama, or sacred stage.
All programs are designed for serious students of yoga and teach you to apply yoga to your own life, as well as how to share yoga with others.
