OUR VISION
As our own personal practices and teaching evolved, Restorative yoga became an essential part of how we care for ourselves and support our students. Along the way, we began to notice a gap in many 200-hour trainings. While Restorative yoga is often mentioned, there’s rarely enough depth for teachers to feel confident offering this important practice.
​
We created this online continuing education course to fill that gap and provide an in-depth, practical approach to teaching Restorative yoga. You’ll learn the foundational Restorative postures, how to skillfully use props to encourage deep relaxation, and sequencing techniques that support your students’ physical and emotional well-being.
​
The course includes visual presentations, recorded lectures, and guided practice videos for applied learning. It’s designed for newer teachers looking to expand their skills and class offerings, as well as experienced teachers who want to refine, deepen, or feel re-inspired in their Restorative teaching.
MODULE 1
INTRODUCTION TO RESTORATIVE YOGA
Discover the foundations of Restorative yoga: what it is, where it comes from, and why it’s so powerful for modern students. Learn its key characteristics, benefits for the nervous system and overall well-being, and how it differs from more active yoga styles. We also explore its historical roots and the physiology of relaxation to give you a grounded, practical understanding of this deeply supportive practice.
MODULE 2
RESTORATIVE YOGA POSTURES & PROPS
This module focuses on how to skillfully use props to fully support the body and create the conditions for deep relaxation in Restorative yoga. The module also includes a comprehensive posture library and posture clinic, offering category-based breakdowns, sequencing considerations, contraindications, and guided videos to help you confidently set up and teach Restorative postures.
MODULE 3
SEQUENCING
RESTORATIVE YOGA
This module teaches you how to confidently sequence Restorative yoga classes that support deep relaxation and nervous system regulation. You’ll learn how to build a thoughtful energetic arc and structure each phase of a class from centering through rest. This module includes two different types of approaches to sequencing and two full-length practice videos to help you see these sequencing principles applied in real time.
MODULE 4
TEACHING
RESTORATIVE YOGA
This final module brings everything together by focusing on the art of teaching from setting the tone of the space and theming your classes, to skillful cueing, prop management, accessibility, and hands-on assisting. You’ll observe these principles in action through a full master class, gaining practical insight into how to hold space and guide students with clarity, ease, and intention.
