Restorative Training
The true art of nervous system regulation
ONLINE FLEXIBLE LEARNING (30hrs)
For yoga teachers, body workers & coaches
Hi I’m Amy!
I’ve been in education and training all of my working life, and teaching yoga since 2008 – eek! In my 20s, I was a vinyasa queen, and then after the birth of my children, as I entered my late 30s, I discovered Yin yoga and fell in love with this slower practice.
This story may sound clichéd, but it’s true! As I approach my late 40s, I still love a sun salutation and I still need the stretching offered by Yin yoga, but I also need something much deeper.
And that is restorative yoga. I believe, regardless of age or stage of life, modern life as we find it, our nervous systems all need the reset and recharge offered by restorative yoga.
My hope is that people don’t wait until they’re in their mid-40s like me before utilising this magical practice. Through this course we can all share the healing that restorative yoga offers.
If energy is everything, every person that you help through this practice will add to the collective healing. That’s a mission I think we can all get behind.

WHY PICK ME?
I have been involved in education and training in one way or another for over 25 years, and offering yoga teacher training since 2016.
I understand what it is to be a good teacher of any subject, and how to successfully craft engaging and inspiring course curriculums.
In a yoga world of many options for training my years of experience make me home to trusted yoga teacher training courses.
My years in education have taught me there is no one perfect way to train. With children, a busy work life and a deep love for surfing, I know how important it is that for me that training is flexible and accessible, and I make my online courses for those who need this too!
However, deciding who to train with is an important decision, if you have any questions for me about this training course do feel free to email me at info@amy-yoga.com.
