The Pulsation Yoga Teacher Training and Yoga Studies programs begin on October 23, 2021. For this upcoming training, we are spacing out weekends so that trainees have more time to read, absorb and practice between meetings. There are both required readings as well as recommended resources for the 2021-2022 training program. Below is a comprehensive list of books to purchase prior to training. We welcome you to begin reading them if you would like to get a jump start. You can contact us for the weekly reading assignments.
