Pranayama Teacher Training

Study the breath with care and context.

Pranayama is the study and practice of yogic breath regulation. A useful training connects techniques with preparation, anatomy, traditional context and the judgment needed to choose an appropriate practice.

Choose by experience and purpose

Choose your pranayama pathway

Explore breathing methods alongside supporting asana, meditation, bandha, mudra and teaching skills. The pathway offers different depths of study, from a short foundation to extended training.

Breathing practices require individual judgment. The course does not qualify a graduate to diagnose or treat respiratory, cardiovascular or mental-health conditions.
