Yoga Teacher Training Michigan: Licensed by the state of Michigan & approved by national Yoga Alliance
Sangha Yoga Teacher Training & In-Depth Study
Complete ParaYoga® RYT 200 Program
Sangha Yoga’s Teacher Training (SYTT) program is approved by the Yoga Alliance and is licensed by the State of Michigan. Our program is hosted by Senior Para Yoga® Teacher, Karina Ayn Mirsky. This teacher training is open to all who are seeking a deeper understanding of yoga: dedicated practitioners, experienced yoga teachers, and those aspiring to teach.
ParaYoga is rooted in the ancient spiritual tradition of yogic science. It is developed to support and positively impact every aspect of modern life. Classical Yoga, Ayurveda and Tantra all inform this holistic and personalized approach to yoga practice. ParaYoga as a system of yoga practice is widely known and respected for intelligently sequencing postures to yield desired energetic effects. It is also honored as one of the few American styles of yoga emphasizing meditation.
One goal of this program is to train yoga students to become exceptional yoga teachers with an ability to lead people (of all kinds) into practicing an authentic tradition of yoga. Participants will learn how to safely and systematically practice and teach a wide range of yoga postures, breathing, relaxation and meditation techniques from ParaYoga's comprehensive catalog. They will learn how to teach a variety of levels of yoga practitioners while integrating ParaYoga philosophies and practices into teaching basic yoga classes. Since beginning students, stiff bodies, large and/or limited bodies need the most coaching, modifications and adaptations for these kinds of students will be shared.
This program is an opportunity for dedicated yoga practitioners to delve deeply into their own practice and study. It is also a self transformation process. These 24 life changing days provide opportunities for self-inquiry, personal growth and expression. Through intensive study and working closely in a closed group, the SYTT participants support one another as they become more self aware and face personal challenges. During this personal empowerment process, trainees form a tight bond with each other. Together they learn how to become a positive force in their own lives and in their communities.

A Note from Devidas Karina Ayn:
I hope that you'll join me in this is a co-learning and shared healing process. It's the unique individuals within these groups who create some of the most valuable opportunities for us to learn and grow. Each participant's personal experiences, interests, and limitations are honored here. You are invited to come as you are, into a sacred space to awaken and "become"... Become more that just a "yoga instructor" going through the motions - become a guide - a light to yourself and to others. - Become a true teacher, become a Yoga Teacher.
