Our month in Bali starts with the e84 Intermediate training. We will practice the e84 Intermediate class two times per day, as we learn sequencing and leadership skills. We use the e84 Intermediate class to prepare the body and learn the different skills and postures found in the 84 Asana sequence. The e84 Intermediate class is not a fixed sequence. During any given class we practice different parts of the 84 Asanas class. We take our time to learn steps and modifications. The second two weeks are dedicated to the traditional 84 Asana sequence, know by many as the “advanced” class. We prefer not to use the label “advanced” because we believe this sequence is safe, and more accessible than the label suggests.
This is a higher level hot yoga practice – we build on the foundation of 26&2 and our approach is focused on technique, self-awareness, and self-control. We will practice a 2-3 hour hot class daily. Our asana practice will be accompanied by a 10-hour anatomy course, and an inquiry into non-physical yoga. We will explore Jnana yoga, Kriya yoga, meditation, mantra, and a survey of yoga history and influential yoga texts. Each two week segment is a stand-alone course. The full month comprises a 200-hour Yoga Alliance certification. It is also the first step towards earning a 500-hour e84 Teacher Diploma which requires two additional courses and takes a minimum of two years to complete.
If you are interested in becoming an expert in traditional hot yoga, this course is a must. If you are interested in deepening your practice, you should learn the e84 intermediate practice and then segue into 84 Asanas. If you are interested in developing your understanding of yoga and of yourself, then come play with us in Bali.
