The Yamas & Niyamas

Continuing Education + Mentorship Course

The Yamas and Niyamas are often called the “ethical backbone” of yoga—timeless teachings that offer a compassionate, grounded roadmap for living with greater harmony, purpose, and joy. More than rules, they are living practices that guide us toward alignment in both our inner and outer worlds.

Whether you are a yoga teacher seeking to deepen your understanding of these ancient principles or someone brand new to yoga who feels called to explore the heart of the practice, you are warmly invited to join. Together, we’ll engage with these teachings in a way that feels accessible, practical, and deeply personal.

Drawing upon the wisdom of Sri Swami Satchidananda and Nischala Joy Devi, you will be encouraged to reflect on each principle through your own unique lens—discovering how these teachings can illuminate, inspire, and support your life today.

This 8-Week Journey Includes:

  • Independent Study — Pre-recorded video teachings delivered weekly, allowing you to explore at your own pace.

  • Personal Mentorship — A 30-minute live session each week (via Zoom or in-person) with CW to process, integrate, and reflect on your experience.

How It Works:

Each week, you’ll receive video teachings along with reflection questions designed to help you apply the Yamas and Niyamas in real and meaningful ways. After spending time practicing and observing, you’ll meet with CW for personalized support and shared reflection.

Meeting days and times will be arranged prior to registration.
(An in-person option is available for an additional fee.)

✨ All reading materials are provided.

Yoga teachers registered with Yoga Alliance are eligible for continuing education hours.
