Bhava is rooted in therapeutic approaches to yoga and supporting our community.  In the past, we partnered with Inner Peace Yoga Therapy to bring the Albuquerque Yoga Community this cutting-edge 300-Hour Yoga Therapy Level 1 Foundations in Yoga Therapy Course.  Now, Inner Peace is offering this training independently and online.  We recommend this training for anyone who is looking to become a yoga therapist. 

This training is designed to introduce you to the vast field of yoga therapy, overview the yoga tradition’s teachings and philosophies and their relevance and application to yoga therapy. You will be introduced to modalities of yoga therapy as applied to various health conditions, which will provide you with a solid foundation to build your knowledge on your path to become a yoga therapist. This training is more specific than other 300-hour training. You will gain information on how to work with special populations, making you more knowledgeable and marketable to work with health care organizations, the aging population of ABQ, and a better teacher to your current students.
