WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING
Each time I study with you, Jason, I come away feeling excited that I have learned so much that I can’t wait to share with my students.
This course has been the most informative and valuable training I have ever undertaken.
Your guidance around sequencing and the master sequence template are invaluable. The last few lectures on sequencing have shed so much light on a subject that has always seemed so mysterious and unfathomable to me – once again I thank you for this.
I am so grateful that this module was virtual, as I was able to pause videos to write things down, and repeat them when I felt like I didn’t catch something! That is SUPER helpful for someone with a learning style like mine.
I truly feel like things which previously felt like they didn’t “stick” have now been internalized in my mind and body, and I am stoked about that!
It’s like finally things clicked!

JACKIE DOMINAS
HEY, I'M JASON.
I’ve been teaching yoga for over 20 years, teaching everywhere from local studios around the globe to providing trainings at the world’s most prestigious yoga conferences and events.
More importantly for this particular training, I’ve been a pioneer in online teaching and training for nearly a decade and I've learned to incorporate best practices for online learning from online educational specialists.
I’m not rushing from behind to get my trainings online like so many others -- I’ve been honing this process for years.
Over the decades, I’ve continued to refine and improve the way I train, guide, and support teachers in my advanced trainings.
I prioritize critical thinking skills, the integration of modern sports science with ancient understanding in asana technique, and creating a lasting community of peers.
In addition to teaching layers and layers of sequencing, I focus on helping teachers develop compelling and comprehensive curriculums for their students. My bachelor’s in Philosophy and years of studying yoga philosophy helps me communicate the essence of the yoga tradition in a clear, honest, and accessible way.
Most importantly, I work to ensure that you are seen, supported, and educated in a comprehensive way -- helping you develop your career as a teacher and make a positive impact on YOUR students.
SUPPORT FACULTY
CHELSEY ADAMS
I completed my 500-hour teacher training with Jason in 2017 and have assisted 10 training modules with Jason — both in-person and online. The time I’ve spent in those training modules has not only helped me refine my teaching skills and evolve as a teacher; it’s also connected me to an exceptional community of extraordinary teachers from around the world. Assisting and supporting students through their training has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my yoga career.

I'm the host of Yogaland Podcast and the former executive editor of Yoga Journal. (In case you don't know me, I'm also Jason's wife!) I've been practicing yoga and meditation for 20 years and find that the benefits of yoga support me in every aspect of my life. I play a role in these trainings, guiding you through morning mindfulness meditations and offering my content creation knowledge through the live calls.

refined and everything that I bring

THE BENEFITS OF ONLINE LEARNING
-
Visual Learning
Your manual and lectures include graphics and images that convey concepts visually.
-
Pause, Rewind, Replay
If you're too saturated to absorb a lecture, you can pause the video, take a moment, and return at your own pace.
-
Six Months of Access
Rather than two weeks of access that you get in a live module, we provide six months of access to all content for each online module.
-
Higher Level of Organization
As far as yoga teachers go, I'm extremely organized--especially in my trainings. This Online Course provides even greater tools for organization from planning to execution.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE:
1. Daily 3-Part Morning Yoga Practice
Your mornings will begin with a 15-30 minute guided meditation, allowing you to settle into your body, calm your mind, and set the tone for the rest of your training day.
From there, you'll move into a strong, comprehensive vinyasa practice lasting between 90-120 minutes. Your practice will conclude with a 20-30 minute seated meditation, guided Savasana, yoga nidra, or pranayama.
Note that these practice sessions are pre-recorded to allow you to do them according to your own timezone.
2. Focused, In-Depth Lectures
Each day, you'll receive 2-3 hours of lectures covering teaching methodology as it relates to that module. Topics include: sequencing, creating a curriculum, functional anatomy, injury management, yoga philosophy, and business development.
Lectures are pre-recorded to allow you to watch them according to your timezone.
3. 12 Group Live Calls with Jason
Each day we will have an average of 2 hours a day of live call connection. This will give our community time to practice, share, and inquire together.
Replays will be made available if you cannot attend a live call.
4. Access to a Private Facebook Group
The Facebook group is a place for you to connect with other students, share wins, and ask questions.
5. A Comprehensive Manual
Each module has its own downloadable and printable PDF manual to reinforce the teachings in the course and keep you organized. As a bonus, I'm also providing all participants with the foundational teacher training manual that I use in 200-hour trainings.
