What is Therapy Yoga?

Therapy Yoga is a unique form of yoga as it works with the body’s natural energy systems – the Qi meridians. Therapy Yoga works the bodies meridians in much the same way that acupuncture works (however without the needles). Through adapting traditional postures, the way we breathe and the way we move, we can either tone or sedate areas of energy to improve general health levels. In this way Therapy Yoga brings balance to the body & mind.

Therapy Yoga is great for back and neck problems, injury recovery, digestive issues, conception and fertility, natal care, hormonal imblances and, of course, great general health.

Our Yoga has taken its origins from Japanese Yoga such as Oki, Ki & Ryoho, and has been enriched with Traditional Chinese Medicine and oriental diagnostic techniques forming a scientific based therapeutic yoga. Yet our yoga is surprisingly easy going and no classes are ever the same.

Come along and experience this unique form of yoga, blending oriental yoga with modern science. We offer a full timetable with all classes run by accredited yoga teachers and therapists.

Small intimate classes for more personalised attention. No bookings required for timetabled
classes. Wear something comfortable & bring along a towel or sarong.

All Classes $17.00 – 10 Session Passes $150.00 – Credit Card and Eftpos facilities are available.

Come along and meet your teachers, fellow students and graduates of our College from 10am.

What is Japanese Therapy Yoga?                                                                 

Japanese Therapy Yoga uses the body’s natural energy systems or meridians to help bring balance to the body and mind.  Taking its origins from other Japanese yoga’s such as Oki, Ki and Ryoho, our yoga has been enriched with Traditional Chinese Medicine and other oriental therapies to become a complete and accredited form of therapeutic yoga.  Yet our yoga is surprisingly easy going yet allows you to teach at an individual level within a class room setting.   Your clients will then be able to enjoy yoga at their own level to bring appropriate focus on self-healing, body and mind balance and true health.

What sets our yoga teacher training apart?

The first thing we ask of you is to make yourself well – this is not a gauge on how fit you are, we are talking about how well and balanced you are.  Once you can identify your own health you will better understand others.

Then you will study our extensive diagnostic based teaching style techniques that will allow you to work with a wide range of clients in all specialty areas such as injury recovery, back and neck problems, digestive issues, conception and fertility, natal.  All our anatomy and physiology courses are based on the asanas, which brings relevance to the study, not just rote learning techniques or set routines.  It is with this understanding of the human
body you will become more than just a yoga teacher; you will be able to help people as a Yoga Therapist.

Our courses are rich with insights into Yoga, Eastern Medical Philosophies and Zen Shiatsu massage.  The Yoga House has further developed the therapeutic aspect of other Japanese yoga and helped develop the careers of many yoga teachers through apprenticeship style programs and diploma
courses.

Courses Starting April 2012  Become a  nationally recognised Therapy Yoga Teacher through supportive mentoring style programs
