Yes. This online program counts towards your hours for completing yoga teacher certification with Balanced Rock as recognized by Yoga Alliance. Please contact us directly via email: paula@balancedrock.org, so we can assess your eligibility on a case-by-case basis.
This is something we can discuss on a case-by-case basis. Please reach out to us at paula@balancedrock.org, and we can explore what is possible!
Yes! If you are not interested in teaching yoga, you will not have to teach in the program. You are most welcome to participate to any degree that serves you. We have had many people in the past who have joined the program with a desire to deepen their own learning.
A key aspect that differentiates WildYoga is the integration of the natural world with our yoga practice, and a focus on yoga as a powerful form of environmental stewardship. Truly our entire program is informed by the energies and cycles of the natural world. It is our greatest teacher. As such, WildYoga is invitational; we welcome you to feel into and find what works for you, and to share this with humility once you complete the program.
We recognize that life doesn’t stop just because you have decided to embark on this journey! We want to support you in being as successful as possible in the course and beyond. In order to receive a certificate of completion, you do need to participate in a minimum of 100 hours of synchronous learning. Synchronous learning refers to all types of learning in which learner(s) and instructor(s) are in the same place, at the same time (online or in-person), in order for learning to take place. If you miss more than three of the Live Zoom sessions, we will need to have a conversation about how to make up those hours. As Balanced Rock is offering other classes online,, we believe this is possible.
At this time, the program is being offered online to support the health and safety of all involved. If conditions shift, and it becomes possible to gather in-person, we will explore this possibility. We would love to offer an in-person module in Summer, 2021 if conditions allow! This would be an additional cost not included in the course price.
We welcome you to reach out to us and have a conversation. It is not our intention to convince anyone to participate unless it is in alignment with your goals and needs!
