Certificate IV Yoga Teaching mid-year intake at City Yoga Studio
Shanti Yoga
Shanti Yoga is an experiential based yoga methodology that promotes the awakening of the life force (prana) within you. Using classical asanas, pranayama, meditation and relaxation practices, Shanti Yoga increases awareness of the body, breath and mind and encourages natural alignment.

The integrated curriculum offered at City Yoga Studio is taught by teachers with decades of experience under the guidance of Shanti Gowans. Throughout your training, you will gain the knowledge, skills and confidence you will need to become an exceptional and successful yoga teacher as well as human being, able to work in any environment you choose.

Off the mat, this holistic-based approach to life encourages natural alignment and increased awareness of our thoughts, words, feelings and actions, allowing for optimal living. By emphasising the mechanics of yoga (form, flow, fuel) as well as the inner, spiritual dimensions of the yoga practice, students are encouraged to honour the wisdom of their body and work in accordance with their strengths and limitations. The primary objective, is to awaken the natural intelligence within the force of life within each individual, in order to promote thriving in all other aspects of life. Because of its approach, Shanti Yoga is compatible with all other styles and traditions in the practice of yoga.
