 Welcome to the Birmingham Yoga Teacher Training Program presented by Magic City Yoga and Dragonfly Yoga Studies.  This extensive 500 hour certification program is specifically designed to provide a rich environment for learning.  Within this training you will discover a strong foundation of acquiring knowledge, utilizing teaching methods, experiencing asana, and consistently applying the principles of the eight-limb path.  You will meet the opportunity to deepen both your asana practice, and the practice of yoga in your daily life.  This program prepares you to instruct Level 1 and Level 2 classes and successful completion will qualify you as an applicant for RYT 200 status with Yoga Allianceā„¢.  The following technical summary will give you an idea of the content your year will cover.
