A 10-hour experiential Training provides first-hand insights into this traditional Japanese healing practice.
 

Reiki is a Japanese energy therapy that taps into the body's natural healing abilities, promoting and accelerating the healing process on all levels - physical, mental, and emotional.

​

Sensei Mikao Usui, the founder of Reiki, taught his students through contemplation of 5 life principles, aiming to cultivate self-awareness and happiness. Reiki has evolved from a spiritual practice to a practical self-healing modality with standardized hand positions, allowing for the even flow of Reiki energy throughout the body.

​

Our unique Reiki Training combines the traditional contemplative approach with hands-on practice. Participants receive a Heart attunement to experience the flow of Reiki energy through their own hands and learn simple self-treatment techniques. The training also includes small group healing sessions, where participants can share Reiki and deepen their understanding of energy flow. It's a wonderful, relaxing experience that offers beginners confidence in their ability to learn Reiki.

RYT 50 Hours Training: Advanced Power Yoga, Pranayama & Meditation

Ideal for certified yoga teachers of all styles, this course serves as continuing education with Yoga Alliance. Not suitable for beginners or uncertified teachers.

The training can be completed over 5 weekends, meeting on Saturdays from 13:00-17:00 & Sundays from 13:30-19:30. Upon completion, you will receive a globally recognized Power Yoga vinyasa certification from Yoga Alliance.

You'll receive 36 hours of Advanced Power Yoga instruction and 14 hours dedicated to Traditional Indian & Balinese Pranayama & Meditation techniques. The specific hours and schedules are flexible, allowing students to choose what works best for them.

What will you learn? We begin with a review of the Yogic breath and its importance in our practice. Emphasizing that yoga is more than just achieving poses, we focus on the physical, energetic, and mental aspects of transitioning in and out of postures. During the 36-hour Power Yoga Vinyasa segment, we deeply explore the body's anatomy. Armed with this knowledge, we learn to teach an advanced 45-minute Power Yoga Flow Sequence (30 minutes of physical sequence and 15 minutes of guided pranayama and meditation).

You'll not only gain expertise in inversions and guiding students toward authentic meditation practices but also learn how to safely lead them towards inner peace and success.

Planning to stay in Florence? As always we offer direct teaching spots in one of your two studios for those who complete our training allowing you to continue learning while teaching!

Now that you have finished your 200-hour yoga teacher training, you may wonder what’s next. You’ve benefited from deepening your own practice and learning a lot about improving physical strength, body awareness, stress reduction, and the business side of being a yoga teacher. But you may find it hard to get a regular teaching position due to the number of other teachers with 200 hours of training in your area. Or you may wish to specialize your classes to focus on a specific population or type of yoga. We offer a 300-hour Teacher Training that will give you a 500RYT Yoga Alliance certification and help you take your practice and teaching to a more advanced level.

​

What is the difference between 200-hour training and 300-hour training?

 

The 300-hour training program is an advanced study following your 200-hour yoga teacher training. It's the second step toward obtaining a 500RYT certification from Yoga Alliance. While some places offer a full 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training as a single course, at The Yoga Connection, we provide the 300-hour program as continuing education after your initial training.

In the initial 200 hours, you learned yoga poses, asanas, pranamaya, and safe teaching methods. In the additional 300 hours, you'll deepen your understanding of working individually with students, modifying poses, and adapting practices to their specific needs. We'll delve into traditions, anatomy, spiritual energy, and the power of the mind while enhancing our meditation practice. You'll also gain knowledge on working with diverse populations like seniors, pregnant women, and individuals with injuries or common medical conditions. By augmenting your practice, education, and training, you'll develop the skills necessary to use yoga as a therapeutic tool and gain confidence in your teaching abilities.

​

This program can be perfect for people living in Florence and who can only commit to a spread out teacher training as we meet only on weekends ( Friday, Saturday & Sunday )

​

We also do this program in 4 weeks made for our travelers who want to come to Florence for a short time to get their training and potentially add up to the 500 hours & continue their travels. 

Next Teacher Training September 28th- October 26th of 2019
