New Yoga Therapist Training Program

Yoga Therapy is increasingly being recognized as an integrative healing modality, with a rapidly growing body of research being done that is documenting the effectiveness of yoga (asana, pranayama, meditation, yogic lifestyle, etc.) in relieving symptoms in a wide variety of health conditions.

At Ananda, we view physical, psychological, and spiritual wellness as inseparable. We therefore train you to apply therapeutic tools that work on all three levels.
