Whats Involved?
Return to Yoga is for anyone looking to bring purpose and structure to their Yoga practice. In this modern era of Yoga, it can be hard to find a sense of purpose when most Yoga studios offer classes focusing more on hip-hop music and fast paced flows that pay no attention to alignment. Little if no education is given on the grounding philosophy of Yoga which is an essential part of your Yoga journey.
​
Return to Yoga will help you see with clarity not just the destination of Yoga, but the path you will travel to get there.
​
Let's break down whats included...
​
There are 2 weeks spanning the "live" portion of this course.
​
Each Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday we will begin with a 60-90 minute class. This will be a little bit of pranayama & meditation followed by a flow.
We will then take a short break and return for our 60-90 minute lecture/workshop/discussion on topics such as Yoga history, philosophy, refining your movements, posture clinics, inversion and arm balance workshops etc.
​
Live classes will be streamed via Zoom, or a similar such online platform. You will require stable internet connection and will be provided with access information after you are accepted into the course. If you cannot make any live sessions, they will be recorded and you will be able to view them on your own time.
​
In addition to live classes, Josh will pre-record several classes for you to practice and repeat during the week as part of the course. These may be repeated as many times as you like.
​
If you are also here for YACEP certification:
​
If you are looking to gain a 30 hour YACEP certificate, you will be awarded with your certificate and will be able to register it on Yoga Alliance. More details on this YACEP course will be outlined below.
I hope to see you soon.
​
Cost
The standard rate includes access to all live-online sessions via the streaming platform that will be announced at a later date. Additionally, you will have access to the pre-recorded classes to do at your own pace. Furthermore, if you miss any of the live-online classes, these will be recorded and made available to you to watch at your own pace.
​
The number of live participants will be capped to allow some room for Josh to engage with you and the other students as a group. Please note that this may not be speaking directly on the live stream, but rather you will have opportunities to send in questions for Josh to address.
The private package includes all of the aspects of the standard rate. In addition to this, you will have the opportunity to have 3 one-on-one private sessions with Josh to help you work on your personal practice, to offer personalized feedback and to supplement the course.
​
These sessions will be conducted on a video call at an agreed upon time that works for everyone involved.
​
Please note, the private package is limited to just 3 students.
WE WELCOME ALL
Everyone is welcome on this course. Regardless of your background, your age, or how "advanced" you think you are - you are welcome. We have had students in their teens and others in the 70's. My personal regret would be that you want to join, but decide not to because you think you aren't good enough or won't fit in. If you have any hesitations at all, please contact me directly. All that I ask is you are passionate about Yoga. Come join us!

2011-2014
Yoga Philosophy, Lifestyle & Ethics
You will be introduced to the history of Yoga, and the foundational elements of Yoga philosophy. Practicing and teaching Yoga without an understanding of its roots is possible, but you will miss out on the essence of the practice. This section is intended to give you a foundational introduction to Yoga History and Philosophy, and how you can fuse that understanding to give your practice purpose and meaning.
