The Yogarise 200-Hour Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training in Mexico and London starts in September and is led by Erin Prichard, supported by a hand-picked selection of talented guest teachers. This outstanding team of Senior Yoga Teachers creates an in-depth, diverse and very special training experience – in our opinion, the best teacher training in London, seriously! Read on to find out more about each teacher and the modules they’ll be leading.
Becky Farbstein : Asana Lab
Becky is a highly experienced teacher, having led many other teacher trainings herself. Her anatomy-focused approach is perfect for the Asana Lab sessions she’ll be leading you through. In these sessions, expect to deep-dive into familiar postures, develop your voice for cueing, and learn how to modify and adjust your students.
Rishin Paonaskar : Asana Lab + Restorative
Rishin will be working alongside Carrianne and Becky for Asana Lab sessions, as well as introducing you to the fundamentals of Restorative Yoga. Rishin is a 500hr qualified teacher with a specialisation in Restorative Practice and Yoga Nidra. He will also be covering cultural appropriation and covering some of your teaching practice hours on the course. If this piques your interest, you may like to go on to take a 50hr CPD and become a Fully Qualified Restorative Teacher after you get back from Mexico!
