Teacher Trainee Online Portal
Expanding your training with virtual connection & resources
All signed up for teacher training? Congratulations on taking the first big step & welcome to the journey!
With the start of training, you'll be invited to our online portal for community & resources during training. With a hybrid training format, your online portal will be your source for both required & supplemental videos and information.
To make the most of your training experience, your (free!) online portal offers the following:
Online Community
Our training days are wonderfully full of information & personal connection.
And once you are solo, you might have questions pop up that you won't want to forget.
Use the online community to pose questions between training days - both to your peers & to Laura directly. Some might be answered in the online community, while more in-depth questions or thoughts will be placed on the agenda for the next scheduled training day.
All respectful questions & comments welcome: about anatomy, philosophy, the schedule, reflections, sequencing, etc.
Asana Videos
Need a refresher on a particular pose?
Especially as training goes on & you further explore sequencing and cueing, you may look back on your notes and realize that you need a refresher on some asana [pose] breakdowns.
(Of course your note taking ability & memorization skills are impeccable; it simply happens to the best of us...)
As they appear during training, our asana breakdowns will be available (as pre-recorded videos with Laura) for review. The portal will also include a notation of the page for that particular pose in your Asana Workbook & Teaching Yoga textbook.
Online Content
The training schedule includes pre-recorded videos that will be released every Wednesday by 6pm.
These videos hold new information each week; they are in addition to our in-person training days.
While it's not required to watch the recording before our next training day, it is required to watch all recordings before graduation day.
Just keep in mind that training material builds upon itself - so it's beneficial to your learning to stay on top of the recordings as best you can!
Handouts & Resources
You'll be provided a physical copy of the Training Manual, Asana Workbook, and all handouts during in-person training days.
Should you need an additional copy of anything provided, digital copies are available within the portal.
Laura will also do her best to link in the online community any outside resources mentioned during training days, so you may follow up or investigate them when desired.
Keep in mind
The email you provided in your training application will be the one utilized for your portal login.
Access begins with the start of training - not with the date your training application is approved. You will receive login information from Laura via email, including a link to the portal, upon the start of training.
Your access to the online portal, including the community and all content, will expire upon graduation. Take advantage of it while you can!
