40 hr Restorative Yoga Teacher Training
October 22–25 + November 22
Rooted Heart Yoga & Art Studio
40-Hour Training (including practicum)
Eligible for Yoga Alliance Continuing Education (CE) hours
This training is an invitation to return to the foundations of care, through a nervous-system-first approach to restorative yoga.
While restorative yoga is often described as calming or relaxing, the truth is that slowing down is not always easy. For many, it can feel unfamiliar, vulnerable, or even activating.
This is what makes restorative yoga both powerful and complex to teach.
In this training, we’ll explore how to work with that reality, learning how to meet students where they are, rather than where we think they should be.
Together, we’ll move beyond simply setting up poses and into the deeper practice of supporting regulation, safety, and genuine rest.
Inside this training, we’ll spend time exploring:
• how restorative yoga differs from yin and yoga nidra, and when each is supportive
• what it actually means to work with the nervous system in a real room, with real people
• the role of props as support, not performance
• pacing that allows trust to build, rather than forcing stillness
• language that invites choice instead of compliance
• what to do when rest doesn’t feel accessible
• how to stay present as a teacher without over-giving or over-correcting
• your own relationship to rest, stillness, and being held
This training also recognizes the reality many teachers are living inside of, holding space for others while feeling depleted themselves.
You’ll be supported in building capacity without burnout, and in redefining what it means to teach from a place of steadiness rather than self-sacrifice.

**Please note:**
This training is open to anyone interested in deepening their understanding of restorative yoga and nervous system support.
To teach restorative yoga classes, participants must hold a 200-hour yoga teacher training certification or be actively working toward one.
This is not about doing less for the sake of it.
It’s about learning how to support rest in a way that is honest, skillful, and sustainable.
A space to explore.
A space to practice.
A space to come back to what actually supports you.
