DESCRIPTIONS OF FOUR LEVELS/MODULES:

Level 1: 25-hour Restorative Basics

This Introduction to Restorative Yoga Training teaches students a basic sequence covering all the reclining positions of the spine, and addressing the needs of the seven chakras. The basic sequence lends itself to modifications for shorter or longer sequences (10 minutes to 3 hours), for individual or group practice, for sequencing based on energetic or physical themes/goals, and for pose and propping options for individual differences in needs and in comfort. Teaching philosophy and inspiration, Chakras and their application to Restorative Yoga, including chakra sequencing, is explored in Level 1. You will also FEEL what we give to Restorative students, so you know what to aim for.

Level 2: 25-hour Restorative Intermediate

Restorative Intermediate offers a second level of more challenging, intermediate

Restorative poses, at least quadrupling the variety of poses and props we can use. These variations offer more challenge for the teacher, and more variety for the students. These will add postures to choose from for a greater range in what you can offer, and a deeper understanding of how the postures reach into and affect the body, physically and energetically. This level builds on Level 1 and more than quadruples the Restorative vocabulary / repertoire from Level 1. Individual Doshas (Ayurveda) and theming variations are explored in Level 2.

Level 3: 25-hour Restorative + Reiki + Nidra

Mother Mary Restorative Trance Yoga (MMRTY) emphasizes use of all five senses + the 6th: Imagination, in our Restorative poses, to deeply access the powerful realm between the conscious and unconscious layers of being. In Level 3, we also teach and attune the Restorative Teacher to Level I Reiki as a tool for further opening the teacher’s receptivity and awareness of themselves as a channel of the student’s self-healing, in the safe space that we set for them. Reiki I gives the teacher tools for daily self Reiki, something that benefits their own spiritual growth, mind-body health, and role as a channel for wellness for everyone in their lives. Continued body mechanics and practice teaching include: sequencing, themes, conditions, scent, teacher voice.

Level 4: 25-hour Restorative + Reiki II + Integration

Mother Mary Restorative Trance Meditation (MMRTM) uses all five senses + the 6th: Imagination, to access the powerful realm between conscious and unconscious, where healing can be accessed at a deeper mind-body level. In Level 4, we build on Reiki I by learning and attuning Reiki II (power, distance, and mental focus elements). We also integrate our 4 levels of our Restorative teacher skills by polishing our own unique Restorative teacher voice, an ongoing path of discovery we learn to creatively relish the rest of our teaching lives.
