Online Buti® 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training

This dynamic yoga methodology focuses on the interconnectedness between the physical body (anatomy + physiology), emotional body (socio-emotional development through the lens of Chakra Diagnostics) and energetic body (Chakra system, Nadis, Koshas + their connection to the endocrine system).
Throughout the program, we teach concepts + tools via visual, auditory and kinesthetic means to ensure proper assimilation of knowledge for all students.
We consistently relate our yogic knowledge back to Chakra diagnostics to emphasize the interconnectedness of physical, psychological and energetic structures involved in the practice.
We empower students to break down self-destructive patterns that may affect their day-to-day lives as well as inevitably impact their leadership skills as yoga practitioners.

This 200 HR training takes place online and requires (14) 12-hour days, live + online, to complete "face to face" coursework. All participants are required to be actively participating with cameras on for all hours of the training. Expect to build your knowledge at home between units.

Unit 1 includes the Practice + History of Yoga—students understand and discuss yoga lineages and the unique qualities that define each style. We then move to Yoga-The Effects on the Systems of the Human Body, including an overview of how each bodily system is affected by the practice of Yoga. In Breathing + Beyond, we explore pranayama and the basic principles of physical + energetic anatomy. Unit 1 concludes with Buti Certification.

Unit 2 explores each Yoga Pose + Sanskrit. The Foundations of Hatha Yoga are reviewed pose by pose, including Standing, Seated and Twisting Poses. Students will be tested on both energetic + physical anatomy in this unit. We then dive deeper into the Chakra system, including Chakras, Koshas and Nadis and their relationship with the nervous & endocrine systems. Unit 2 focuses on static anatomy + physiology; identification methods tested are physical touch and visual through fill-in-the-blank. Common misalignments and how to correct form for each pose in our Foundations of Hatha section will be taught + practiced building the foundation for proper cueing.

Unit 3 delves deeper into movement anatomy + physiology. We begin to understand how physical structures interact with energetic structures in the application and practice of dynamic asana. Students will also complete a body pathology segment which helps students learn how to scan posture + alignment to determine muscle weakness, injury or postural abnormality. Unit 3 will finish with pose prescription, sequencing and hands-on adjustments demos.

Unit 4 begins with student volunteers for the Chakra Diagnostics work with Directed Storytelling®. Upon completion and Socratic-method discussion, the course moves on to Leadership Styles + Application. This unit empowers students to determine what type of teacher they wish to become and which leadership style best suits their goals. We compare and contrast yoga teachers from past to present to gain a deeper understanding of the spectrum of yoga instruction. Finally, we focus on savasana adjustments and etiquette.

Unit 5 is a Fascia + Anatomy review. We dive deeper and learn how to apply our knowledge as Yoga instructors.

Unit 6 is your final exam that takes place over 3 days. The exam includes a cumulative written exam and a cueing + adjustment assessment.
