embodied dancer - Abby Hoffmann Yoga

Who is this course suitable for? 3
If you are already a dancer, dance educator, physiotherapist, movement practitioner or
dance teacher who wants to incorporate yoga principles into your work then this course is
for you.
If you are already qualified as a yoga teacher at the 200-hour level and wish to delve
deeper into a specialised area such as dance or performance then this course is for you,
as you can gain accreditation at the 500-hour level with Yoga Alliance UK.
Due to the expectation that you will already be a dance or teaching professional, the
course will be held at a higher level than most yoga teacher trainings, since applicants will
already possess a strong understanding of the human body, movement principles and
pedagogical methods from previous dance training and careers.
Pre-requisites: Previous yoga teacher training, experience of teaching movement or
dance, physiotherapy or movement therapy qualifications or similar. All participants are
expected to have an established yoga practice, evidence of which must be supported by
an interview or practice day, or by taking part in one of our tutors’ open classes. Details of
all teachers’ timetables are available on their individual websites. We encourage you to
ask us questions in advance to determine if this course is a fit for you – and us!
Who will you be taught by?
The faculty is comprised of highly experienced teachers, trainers who been practising and
teaching yoga for many years in a variety of traditions. Some of us are also dancers and
performers and so understand the demands and workings of the profession. As course
mentors, our teachers will provide warm, supportive and professional guidance, and you
will have the opportunity to take part in classes with us, as well as observe and assist, the
cornerstone of your development as a teacher
