Ready to take your practice to the next level?  Or develop your teaching skills to more effectively communicate your passion?  In this two-week, advanced training with celebrated teacher of life Banyan Gallagher, we’ll dive deeper into all things Yoga:

• Enhance your understanding of healthy alignment, for maximum benefit for all levels of student
• Learn to “read bodies”: to use a combination of anatomy and consciousness to peer into the inner workings of the individual yogi’s form, and unravel your understanding layer by layer
• Manipulate the breath for maximum effect in your specific aim
• Develop steadiness in meditation
• Master the building blocks of Tantra (nadi, chakra, bandha, mudra, etc.) to accelerate your evolution
• Cultivate joy, pleasure, and play in practice, through exercises in acceptance, clown, dance, and acroyoga

In order to ensure we can place direct our focus clearly (dharana), this training is only open to students who have completed a 200 hour, Yoga Alliance certified Teacher Training course, or who can demonstrate similar experience.  By beginning with a smaller, more experienced group, we will move faster and further towards advanced asanas, pranayamas, and philosophies.  Warrior 1’s 300 hour program, which leads to YA RYT500 status, is broken into two segments (“Level II” and “Level III”).  Please contact with questions.

Daily schedule will be busy!  We will practice five days on, one day off.  There will be free time, each day, and during days off, for exploring the local beaches and Balinese culture, but this event will be an intensive focused more on our internal, personal work.  Please budget extra time if you want a relaxing vacation. Inquire here about arriving a day or two early, or departing a day or two later.

Who is Banyan Gallagher?

Banyan Gallagher is a playful student of life, who very rarely says the word, “No.”  From a background as a semi-pro athlete, Banyan’s fascination with all things movement-related led him to in-depth studies in martial arts, firedance, circus clown, ballet, motorcycle racing, human dissection, philosophy, mystical poetry, and meditation, the ultimate movement of stillness.

Somehow Banyan manages to synthesize these diverse interests into a lesson for all of us — that happiness and awakening are ours for the taking.  Through the platform of yoga and awareness, Banyan spreads his love of life throughout the world in three to five Yoga Alliance-certified trainings a year at the 200 and 300 hour level, as well as assorted trainings and workshops.  Please visit www.BanyanGallagher.com to discover where in the world you can find him.  And then give him a smile.
