Life changing teacher trainings in the most awe-inspiring locations around the globe.

Total Transformation

The Sacred Fig 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training is a highly-intensive program designed to educate &amp; inspire the next generation of world-class yoga leaders. &nbsp;We firmly believe that the strongest attribute any yoga teacher possesses is themselves. &nbsp;And so we emphasize things like personal development, confidence, and speech (and we’ll bust some myths about alignment, too).&nbsp; Our rigorous program is approved by the Yoga Alliance, but it’s so much more than that. &nbsp;In fact, it’s one of the most comprehensive available today. &nbsp;Our teacher trainings attract students of all levels, from literally all around the globe. The Sacred Fig Yoga Teacher Trainings produce confident, knowledgeable, articulate, and empowered yoga teachers. &nbsp;Period.&nbsp;At the core of the The Sacred Fig philosophy is a profound sense of connection. &nbsp;Not only do our thoughts affect us in tangible ways, but we also have the extraordinary capacity to affect those around us, and the environment we live in. &nbsp;And so as yoga practitioners and teachers, we strive for the extraordinary, so that we may serve as a beacon of possibility for those around us. &nbsp;We see the divine in everything around us, but we also know that it lies within us. &nbsp;So before trying to shape &amp; control everything outside of us, we first look deep within, and do the work ourselves.We don’t provide answers (and we’re&nbsp;wary of any teacher or school who claims that they do).&nbsp; Instead, we welcome &amp; provide different viewpoints, we stir lively discourse. &nbsp;We set the circumstances to challenge notions&nbsp;about what yoga is, what it might feel like or look like, and why we practice. &nbsp;We create an&nbsp;accelerated learning environment, where trainees gain the confidence to discover their own “truths” about yoga, about their bodies and their practice. &nbsp;There’s no memorization, no mimicry, and no script. &nbsp;From this place, trainees find their authentic voice… sharing their knowledge &amp; their practice naturally.

200 hour Yoga Teacher Training

The Sacred Fig 50 hour Trainings are intensive, modular programs designed to elevate + inform the next generation of leaders in the wellness space.&nbsp; Our 50 hour programming is divided into shorter modules, each with a unique focus + theme. Each module has a unique focus, led by world-renowned experts in their respective fields.The focus of this 50 hour module is Meridian Yoga Therapy. For this training we're thrilled to welcome Rose Erin Vaughan, founder of The Science of Self. This AADP (American Association of Drugless Practitioners) accredited course is a deep &amp; practical immersion into the human energetic &amp; physical anatomy leading to development of powerful skills and techniques for genuinely helping others.What is Meridian Yoga Therapy (MYT)? In modern times, much of our physical pain comes from problems in the mind and emotions. The ancient philosophies like Yoga and Chinese medicine are sophisticated systems that offer maps of the body, mind and soul, a different kind of anatomy that acknowledges the physical as well as the emotional. Even in modern culture, the heart is known not only as an organ that pumps the blood, but also as the source of love and compassion, connection to divine and other. The techniques of these two systems were designed as both physical medicine and tools for spiritual development. MYT is a modern synthesis of these two ancient systems. MYT techniques work in the same way that Yoga asana works - relying on the connection between the physical, emotional and spiritual. Like Yoga asana, MYT uses physical methods to Ease the flow of energy through the subtle channels and release muscle tension, joint pain, headaches, digestive issues, anxiety, depression, etc. Meridian Yoga Therapy is a healing modality that can be applied to self or others. This system is based on the 8-limbed Yogic principles and informed by the traditional Chinese Medicine meridian system of points and pathways. MYT techniques can be used within Yoga classes. It is our belief that in serving others, we can heal ourselves also. Graduates qualify for membership in American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP). This program is not registered with the The Yoga Alliance.The MYT certification allows graduates to use the title Certified MYT Practitioner. These techniques can be used to inform the Yoga Practice for yourself and for your students. The MYT certification program does not provide graduates with a legal license to practice massage, bodywork, or acupressure.<a href="https://youtu.be/DjK2lZqQYLs">Watch this video</a> from a past Meridian Yoga Therapy Training to learn more!
