Learn to practice and teach yoga in a supportive exploratory environment that helps you build the skills, confidence, and knowledge to grow.
This 9 day immersive practice and training experience is supported by a condensed online course that serves as the teaching manual for the program. It is a reference not only for what we will work on in the room together, but as a blueprint for when you begin to teach. It can also be a guide for building an intentional home practice.
Our training is certified by Yoga Alliance, upon completion you will be ready to teach classes.

Your Teachers
Lead by Patrick Beach, the co-creator of Awakening Yoga and has been orchestrating teacher training programs all over the world for over 10 years. His playful spirit, immense knowledge of the practice, and encouraging nature will help you deepen your journey wherever you choose to take it.
Supported by Erica Kiely, who has been teaching yoga for 10 years and is known for her warming intuitive sequences that help students feel good in their bodies. She brings a diverse knowledge of yoga and body work to the training to help you learn the best ways to support students in their practice. As the manager of Commune Yoga, she can help guide you on the path to begin teaching.
What is Awakening Yoga?
Awakening Yoga is a modern method for exploring the body, mind and spirit that aims to turn repetition into ritual weaving a sense of play and magic through the yoga practice.
Designed with the student in mind, we create movement patterns and sequences that are available and challenging to help anyone elevate their conscious connection to the present moment.
Our Vinyasa system is based on the Full Solar Practice, a class build around 13 foundational series that can be explored as a set sequence or blended together to create new opportunities for discovery.
These series are at the foundation of all vinyasa classes shared at Commune Yoga.
The Value of an Online component
Consider the online portion of this training to serve as an interactive digital manual for the program. It is filled with videos of pose and series breakdowns, theories of practice, podcasts, and short quizzes to help you retain the knowledge so you feel comfortable sharing.
We designed it to be fun and enjoyable to give you the best learning experience—allowing you to process the material at your own pace.
