attendance at local classes. Each student will have to<br />

proficient standard and level of teaching.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>elbowroom</strong> has been successfully running teacher<br />

training courses since the beginning of 2005. We<br />

have great staff, a wonderful studio and a facility to<br />

allow our graduates to continue their education<br />

through ongoing workshops, seminars and classes.<br />

We do insist that each student has at least two years<br />

yoga practice and will require referees to acknowledge<br />

this practice.<br />
