**200 hr students that complete the program will be considered 500 hour Yoga Educators
If you have a calling to take your practice deeper and share the joy of your yoga experiences with others, join Chris Loebsack, Corinne Farrell, along with guest teachers**. It is our goal to help you deepen your understanding of anatomy, meditation, asana, help you develop leadership qualities, and find your authentic voice and practice within. Our mission is to offer a well-rounded yoga teacher training program that provides teachers the knowledge, guidance, and capacity to instruct with true wisdom and integrity.
The art of teaching yoga requires sensitivity, compassion, and practice. A teacher must encourage, inspire, and address the needs of each individual student while balancing the dynamic flow of the group. The Boundless Yoga Teacher Training program approaches the art of teaching yoga with a practical and modern sensibility. This program is designed to give the participants a comprehensive and intensive study of the broad base of yoga, culminating in a journey of self-study and personal transformation. Along the way, trainees will be encouraged to expand and challenge what they define “yoga” to be. Through exposure to multiple modalities, trainees are encouraged to create their own signature style that expresses their unique spirit.

“We can begin by doing small things at the local level, like planting community gardens or looking
out for our neighbors. That is how change takes place in living systems, not from above but from
within, from many local actions occurring simultaneously.” Grace Lee Boggs
A yoga community is more than just a gathering of yogis for the purpose of practicing asana. The
practice of yoga as a way of life can shift our relationship to ourselves and further move our
relationship to the world around us. Develop authentic relationships between people as we explore
avenues of trust building, clear communication, and group dynamics. This weekend workshop will
look at our roles in our individual partnerships and greater community. Working to strengthen our
larger community (the Sangha) we help others to develop their own advocacy.
Seva (selfless service) along with Karma (the yoga of action) are the pulse of the kula (the
community that shares the heart). We will work together through a variety of trust building exercises,
lectures, partner work, group games, journaling, coaching techniques and more to lift one another in
to a place of high union.
We will review special populations that may need more support in the practice.

Chandrasana? How can I tell if one pose is more effective than another for strengthening a muscle
group? Holy hip flexors batman, how do I release the tension?”

Yoga came into Priya’s life at an early age. Priya’s mother, having practiced under B.K.S. Iyengar for 3 years, taught her growing up. In 2008 she began a dedicated physical practice, originally seeking only that; however, what unveiled was a mindful practice that provided tools to improve overall well-being. In 2010 she combined her love of travel and yoga and went to Bali for an immersive 200HR Hatha Yoga certification. Since, she’s received certifications in Vinyasa Yoga (100HR) from Balance Yoga & Wellness, Bhakti Flow Yoga (120HR) from Rusty Wells of Urban Flow. Priya has also been trained in The Art of Physical Adjustments, Reiki Level 1, Prenatal, Restorative, Yin, Aerial, and Trauma Informed Yoga.
