This year-long Dharma and Yoga Certificate program integrates Buddhist wisdom teachings and meditation practice with asana, pranayama, and somatic movement. Dharma and yoga are interwoven as one path to awakening that includes silent retreat; community connection; and structured support for deepening your  personal practice as well as teaching of embodied meditation and mindful yoga. The program centers practices that are accessible, trauma-informed, and nourish belonging, while offering a systematic grounding in the essential practices of these two great traditions.

Teachers: Anne Cushman, Rolf Gates, Leslie Booker, and Djuna Devereaux.
