Find YOUR Power

Turn the ordinary into the extraordinary in this yoga lifestyle + teacher training, specially tailored to empower you (and your students) to live a bold life with confidence, courage, and the ability to inspire. We delve into the history and philosophy of yoga that have taught people to live fearlessly and without self-imposed limitations for centuries. We explore the anatomy of yoga, so you will become a well qualified and skilled teacher, able to support your student’s journey towards physical freedom, on and off the mat. Special attention will be paid to yoga for athletes, targeting common injuries, and supplemental strategies to build strength, flexibility, and endurance. At the same time, we honor the full life-cycle of each individual, and the need for even the most active among us to honor their body with nurturing practices. To this end we incorporate the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, Yin yoga, and restorative practices to help the body heal. We take time to understand the needs of children, prenatal people, and seniors so you will be able to support the optimal health of yourself and all of your students at any stage. Our goal is to inspire seekers to cherish and celebrate the powerful gift of simply living in our highest potential each and every day.

Testimonials

“I highly recommend Wilmington Yoga Center’s Empowered Vinyasa program to anyone interested in becoming an instructor or deepening their practice. I had been practicing yoga for 11 years when I decided to pursue my certification, and I’m so glad I chose WYC to guide me on my journey. Jess and Heather have created a comprehensive, informative, enriching program that covers everything from anatomy, to sequencing, to adapting classes for specific populations (e.g., seniors and individuals with trauma). All of the instructors are knowledgeable, helpful, and professional, and I learned so much from them. The program provides lots of hands-on experience and imbued me with the confidence to guide students through their practice. In fact, I am so impressed that I have already begun my 300 hour training with WYC. With so many programs to choose from, it can be challenging to find one that delivers on its promises. Rest assured, WYC does just that—and then some!” – 2024 Graduate
