Join us for this one of a kind Yoga Alliance registered 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training program. A solid foundation in alignment and anatomy coupled with practical strategies to help students of all levels feel confident, and an in depth exploration of the 8 limbs of yoga give you the confidence you need to find your own voice as a teacher.
Our weekend only format allows you to reach your goals without a significant impact to your family and/or job. The full year format provides ample time to integrate, practice, study, receive support and grow both as a person and a teacher. (We meet one weekend a month for a full year.)
From a former graduate:
"I have been practicing yoga for many years and knew that a YTT would deepen my understanding and commitment but I did not know how completely transforming this program would be. I am amazed how quickly and how deeply this transformation has been. I have discovered so many aspects of Yoga that I did not know about through this program. I truly feel that I am so much more well rounded and well versed. This program presents many styles and options, so that I am learning what is best for me to focus on. One of my favorite aspects of this program is that is supports the development of the individual and allows each student to find and develop their strengths. Who I am and my interests are honored and I am encouraged to delve more deeply into what is resonating with me. I love not feeling like I am expected to be like anyone else. Mandy creates a supportive environment that allows each student to feel safe in exploring and developing. Her ability to lead with gentleness and positivity is truly amazing to experience. She brings her seasoned teaching, supportive nature, and open heart to every session, further inspiring the students to go even further." ~Elisha

The foundation of vinyasa is linking breath to movement. In this invigorating class, you will create heat and energy in the body as you flow through a sequence of postures linked by breath. In addition to physical postures that build balance, strength, and flexibility, this class integrates pranayama breathwork and meditation to instill a sense of calm and relaxation. An extended savasana at the end of practice provides an opportunity to soak in these mind-body benefits. Whether you are newer to yoga or an advanced practitioner, different pose variations are given so you may practice at your own comfort level.
Exhibits
To survive and thrive, we must all consume food everyday: eating is therefore one of the few universal human experiences. Beginning with this basic fact, a new exhibit featuring appetizing books, award-winning cookbooks, manuscripts and archival materials from the Penn State’s University Libraries’ Eberly Family Special Collections and the Libraries’ circulating collection of culinary art is on display through Jan. 13. The exhibit is located in the Special Collections Library, 104 Paterno Library, and in Sidewater Commons, located on the first floor of Pattee Library on the University Park campus.
Penn State University Libraries presents a new exhibit that explores the eastern U.S. forest, its wildlife, and botanical wealth, and gives special tribute to early women naturalists and conservationists. Featuring nature-related materials from the University Libraries’ life sciences, maps and archival collections, the exhibit runs until February 11, 2019 in the Diversity Studies Room, 203 Pattee Library, on the University Park campus.
A student-led exhibition, featuring the breadth and depth of artworks created by current members and recent graduates of the Penn State Painting Club. Founded in 2011, Painting Club provides creative community and collective-generated opportunities to its members, such as studio visits, lectures, field trips, peer critiques, pop-up shows, and faculty mentorship outside the classroom. Art Alley is located on the first floor of the HUB-Robeson Center. The HUB-Robeson Galleries are open from 12-6pm Monday through Thursday and 12-4pm Friday through Sunday. Hours may differ during University breaks and holidays.
Park's functional wood works elevate and celebrate the meaningful spaces in the home. In this selection of works made between 2012 and 2017, Park takes inspiration from the beauty of creature and human forms, emphasizing the important roles that functional objects, such as furniture or musical instruments, play in our lives. The HUB Gallery is located on the first floor of the HUB-Robeson Center. The HUB-Robeson Galleries are open from 12-6pm Monday through Thursday and 12-4pm Friday through Sunday.
