Anusara (a-nu-sar-a), means "flowing with Grace,"

 "going with the flow," "following your heart."

Anusara Yoga Curriculum

Anusara Yoga is a highly esteemed and professional yoga system in which teachers are rigorously trained over several years in a broad and in-depth curriculum that encompasses studies in eastern philosophy and yoga history, biomechanics, anatomy, detailed postural alignment, therapeutics, and the art of teaching yoga.

All Anusara Yoga teachers are extensively trained in the key areas of yoga teaching such as interweaving heart-oriented themes and Tantric philosophy with postural alignment instruction in order to inspire students to embody the highest purposes of the yoga practice. Other key areas of teaching in which Anusara Yoga instructors are trained include the principles of the breath, meditation, postural sequencing, observation, verbal and physical adjustments, postural demonstration, use of voice, and organization of course curriculum.

In it's overall curriculum, Anusara Yoga includes a wide range of classes that accommodates students of all physical ability and level of yoga experience. Beginning students, children and seniors, expectant mothers, students with therapeutic limitations, and world-class advanced yoga teachers can all find Anusara Yoga classes to appropriately suit them.

Within the Anusara Yoga curriculum, there are two classifications of teacher: certified Anusara Yoga teacher and Anusara-inspired yoga teacherTM. Please click on the following links for a complete description and definition of each of these levels of teacher within the Anusara Yoga method.

The harmony of the Anusara Yoga community is maintained by adhering to a set of Ethical Guidelines. All Anusara Yoga teachers are required to follow these Ethical Guidelines in order to maintain their teaching license as an Anusara Yoga teacher. Please see Ethical Guidelines and Ethical Grievance Procedure.
