The Study of the Bhagavad Gita

Yoga Alliance-Approved Advanced  Studies and
Continuing-Education Yoga Teacher Training

Dates: Tuesdays, October 1 - 22, 2024
CEC: 8 Hours (6 Contact, 2 Non-Contact)
Location: Virtual

This book-club-style training delves into and digests the sacred text, the Bhagavad Gita. We explore the modern-day application of this masterpiece of awareness and adventure, examine how its lesson apply to our own lives, and discuss how to bring the words to life. Students learn to apply the concepts of the Gita to the study of the 8-limbed path, including asana, and to art of living our yoga. Our virtual book-club approach, using Zoom, allows us to discuss and absorb the lessons of the Gita in “bite-size” chunks of 90 minutes over four evenings. Students form new virtual communities of exploration, making this ancient book of wisdom accessible to people near and far.

Tracy has a background in dance, bodywork, aromatherapy, martial arts, and personal training. After a dance injury led her to yoga for physical healing, she found that her yoga practice not only supported her body, but it also changed her perspective of the world and her connection to it. For her, yoga engenders peace and clarity, both on and off the mat, and gives her a way to balance her energetic anatomy. Inspired to share her perspectives with others, she completed her 200-hour training with Devanadi Yoga, 500-hour training with Green Lotus, and teaches workshops, classes, and trainings for Green Lotus.
