Yoga Teacher Training and Wellness Immersion in Miramar, Florida

The heart of this training is the curriculum. You'll spend the 15 days working through the six branches of yoga that make up Sampoorna Yoga: Hatha, Raja, Karma, Bhakti, Jnana, and Nada. Each day is a blend of practice and study. You'll start with asana practice to build your physical understanding and teaching technique, then move into pranayama and meditation. Lectures cover Vedanta philosophy, anatomy and physiology, the Bhagavad Gita, and the principles of Ayurveda. This isn't just a physical bootcamp; it's an education in the whole system of yoga.

The lead instructor is Shri Yogi Hari, a self-realized master who studied under Swami Vishnudevananda and Swami Nadabrahmananda. He brings 60 years of practice and teaching experience to the program, and his presence is a large part of what makes this course unique. He is joined by his daughter, Sangita, who has been teaching since she was a child, and Kalima, who handles the cooking and brings her own expertise as an E-RYT 500 teacher and spiritual counselor. The teaching is personal and direct, and you'll have access to these instructors throughout the day, not just in class.

The residential aspect is a key part of the design. By living at Yogi Hari's Ashram, you remove yourself from the demands of normal life and can put your full energy into the training. The expectation is that you'll study outside of class time, and group excursions like the trip to Fort Lauderdale Beach offer a chance to relax and reflect. The training is intensive, but the schedule includes time for rest and personal study, helping you absorb the material. The goal is to leave with not just the certification, but a real working knowledge of how to teach and live yoga.
