Therapeutic Applications of Sound & Mantra
Course Description: In this course, we will take a deeper dive into the history of sound as a therapeutic model and follow its trajectory into modern methods of healing in both the Western and Eastern models. Blending ancient wisdom with modern science, we will explore how everything is vibration and has the potential to be healed through vibration. Along with gaining an understanding of how sound and vibration can change our blueprint, we will explore practical applications of utilizing instruments and mantra in group and private client settings to stimulate healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Upon completion of the initial Level 1 training, trainees are required to teach 8 hours of community service classes to a group of people that are not currently being served by the Yoga community; i.e. seniors, children, people with disabilities, cancer patients, those living in homeless shelters, corporate executives, etc.
Trainees then need to complete the Certificate Request Form online and upload two letters:
1) a verification letter from a participant or the organization where the 8 hours of community service were completed verifying the dates/times that the classes took place and
2) a personal letter detailing the community service experience.
Yes! The discount code is: yogafit
We don’t provide AFAA CEC’s. Those who would like to receive AFAA credits for our trainings will need to petition with AFAA.
After you attend the Level 1 training and complete the community service requirement you will receive a certificate of completion. You can then say that you are Level 1 -trained by YogaFit. There really is no such thing as “certification” for yoga teachers. However, there is a “registration” option that provides proof of a minimum standard (RYT designation provided by Yoga Alliance).
You have 12 months to complete the 8 hours and provide proof. In the meantime you are welcome to register and participate in the next level of training.
