Aerial Yoga Teacher Training

Learn to teach Aerial Yoga from Jo Stewart the author of Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga: Adapting Practice for Accessibility, Neurodiversity and Physical Support!

Begin your aerial yoga teaching journey in a nurturing and supportive small group setting (maximum of 6 students).

This training will provide you with the foundations to share aerial yoga practice in a welcoming, inclusive and accessible way.

This training is body positive, trauma informed and neurodiversity friendly!

The course consists of 50 in person hours, you will receive lots of individual support to help you find your voice as a teacher. There are many opportunities for practice teaching, class planning and sequencing, adapting practice for pre and post natal students, bigger bodies and older adults.

Skills learned include class programing, small business marketing and professional ethics and boundaries. The emphasis is on building a sustainable yoga business that supports the teacher and students.

Sessions will take place on alternating Sundays, with breaks between to allow for integration, practice and personal energy management. We understand it can be challenging to fit a long training into a professional teaching schedule and the course structure is designed with this in mind.

Prerequisites

This course is designed as continuing education for qualified yoga teachers and will be registered with Yoga Australia for CPD.

If you already hold a 200+ hour yoga teacher training certification prior to completing our 50 hour Aerial Yoga Teacher training, you will become a certified Aerial Yoga Teacher upon completion of this course.

This 50 hour course alone, does not qualify you to teach aerial yoga classes.

We welcome those who are not yoga teachers but qualified in other complementary fields (eg Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy or Pilates) to take this training to enhance their offerings within the scope of practice of their current qualifications.

While this training follows trauma informed principles, we also recommend you take additional trauma informed training if you plan to work with this population.

You are also welcome to take this training purely for your personal development but please note it is designed as continuing education for qualified yoga teachers and is structured as such.
