Workshops and Events - General Information

We always have wonderful and exciting workshops in store for you at TAYS.

If you are looking to deepen your personal practice then you might consider our Workshops page. With these workshops you can learn mindfulness meditation, learn tips for headstand, discover more in depth knowledge about Yin yoga or Pregnancy Yoga or become a Certified Life Coach. This is a great place to start, deepen or pursue your yoga path. You do not need to be a teacher or a teacher-in-training. These programs are open to everyone.

We also have more in-depth training programs that certify people to teach Yoga. These courses would be found on our YTT training pages. We train people at the 200-hour level (fundamentals - basics requirements as determined by Yoga Alliance) and we also offer a 500-hour (professional level) Yoga Teacher Training.

So if you want to learn to teach Yoga or become more confident in physical assisting or want to delve into Yoga Philosophy…our workshops and our YTT courses offer a wide range of learning for everyone. We host two internationally known teachers on a yearly basis: Philip Urso and Barrie Risman. Each of these teachers, although different from each other, offers the yoga students and teachers of Halifax a variety of incredible opportunities for learning. Have a look at our schedule to determine their next scheduled visit and topic.

If you would like to go away on a warm weather yoga retreat then join some of our senior staff in beautiful Mexico during the first week of March 2014.
