Yoga Alliance Continuing Education (YACEP)
With lead trainers Sarah Emilie Boas & Cédric Gorinas
This 50-hour training invites you to slow down, turn inward, and explore the powerful practices of meditation and pranayama. The focus of the program is seated meditation, supported by breathwork and theory from ancient yoga philosophy and modern science, so you can cultivate both a deeper personal practice and the tools to share it with others.
It is open to everyone — yoga teachers and dedicated practitioners alike. While no prior teaching experience is required, we warmly recommend that you already have some experience with meditation, as we will go beyond the very basics.
What You’ll Learn:
- Build and sustain a regular home practice
- Understand the impact of meditation
- Overcome common challenges to focus and consistency
- Explore the connection between breath, awareness, personal growth, and spirituality
- Gain confidence in teaching meditation and pranayama with clarity and confidence
- Dive into key yogic wisdom and philosophy from, for example:
Classical Yoga and the Yoga Sutras (wisdom of the mind),
Nondual Tantra and scriptures on the heart as a center of awareness,
Bhagavad Gita and other sources
- Discover the science of meditation and breat hwork, including:
How meditation affects the brain and focus,
The effects of mindfulness and pranayama on stress and emotional regulation,
Research-based insights that connect ancient practice with modern understanding.
Training Format
The training blends immersive weekends, weekly online sessions, and guided home practice. Together, this creates a balance between community learning and personal exploration.
