Pre-requisites

This course is reserved for youth between 18 and 30 years old and has 3 weeks of training on site.

To take this course, I understand that I need to:
• Have the time to practice and follow the online program as described below

• Have been practicing consistently yoga for 1 year and be able to demonstrate all the poses
• Be 18 years of age or older
