  3. The questions in each part are divided into Alignment Technique, Philosophy, and Anatomy.

The newly revised Empowerment Review and Answer Key have “2021” in the title to distinguish it from earlier editions. Thank you to all who have worked on the Immersion curriculum and the Empowerment Reviews over the years, and a special thanks to those who contributed to this new edition including Experienced Certified Anusara Teachers: Jayendra Hanley, Karen Sprute-Francovich and Rachel Dewan.

INVITATION TO TEACH:

INVITATION TO LEAD AN ANUSARA BRIDGE PROGRAM:

We would like to invite more teacher trainers to lead the Anusara Bridge program. It is a valuable program that gives non-Anusara yoga teachers access to the foundations of Anusara yoga and a path of entry into the 300-hour Anusara teacher training. This program was created for you, so that you can increase the number of students you have in your training without having to slow down the course to revisit the basics with those who did not complete a 200-hour Anusara teacher training.

Although recommended as a prerequisite to the 300-hour program, if you feel that your students are capable of following your 300-hour module or program without falling behind other students, we leave it to your discretion whether or not you keep this as your prerequisite.

That being said, I would still encourage you to lead the program it to help your students complete their 300-hours. Bridge program is a condensed, intensive, version of the 200-hour Anusara teacher training. Credit hours gained, count towards elective hour credit for all students. 

If you’re interested in teaching a Bridge program please contact ory@anusarayoga.com and request a copy of the curriculum to start planning your course!

Thank you for your continued dedication towards helping grow and support our community.
