Our 200 hour Yoga Program is the perfect launching pad for
teaching as well as a fantastic way to deepen your own personal
practice. Dubbed ‘love school’, we are here to support
you on your incredible journey in cultivating a personal spiritual
practice, Sadhana, that connects you directly with the Source
of your being, the true Teacher or Guru within. Through this
sacred connection, you become the true mystic, sharing what
you discover and offering yourself as a powerful and healing
presence in the world.
Yoga School at Laughing Lotus is an incredibly rich and
intensive program that fully brings to life the depth
and joy of Yoga as a creative process and as a Divine path to
Awakening.
As a registered Yoga Alliance School, our curriculum
fulfills all of the necessary requirements,
and yet goes even deeper by focusing on the greater aspects
of teaching right from the start. From the very first weekend,
students are teaching and discovering their own voices and soulful
expression.
Jasmine Tarkeshi and Dana Flynn, the co-creators
and co-directors of Laughing Lotus and
the Lotus College of Yoga, have developed a program that thoroughly
explores the art of teaching and sequencing
a Vinyasa class. Vinyasa means step by step and our sequencing
is an ecstatic celebration where the asanas are woven together
like a garland, honoring the body’s own intelligence and
guided by the powerful rhythm of the breath. The movement as
medicine and prayer; pranayama, mantra, mudra, and timeless
yogic teachings lift the veil of the mind and liberates the
Spirit to Freedom and Cosmic Oneness.
Our philosophy focus is on the Yoga Sutras
of Patanjali, the ‘road map’ to Liberation. Through self-inquiry,
group discussion and chanting of the Sutras, we uncover and
experience the meaning of Yoga and how this rich philosophy
relates to our daily lives.
