ANUSARA YOGA IN CHINA MARCH 2012: Tour details TBA soon!

Yes, I am Anusara’s premier ambassador to the People’s Republic of China! I have traveled throughout the country half a dozen times already, with more visits planned for fall 2010 and winter 2011. My programs include public classes, introductory intensives, immersions, therapeutics workshops, retreats, and teacher trainings.

CHINA TOUR—EXPLORE THE LAND OF THE FUTURE!
My China courses (taught in English with live translation into Mandarin) offer Westerners an economical and exciting way to combine exotic travel with outstanding yoga. Housing can be arranged, and the lower cost of programs and inexpensive flights put this adventure within the reach of everyone!

Allow Lois Nesbitt, one of Anusara yoga’s most experienced teacher trainers, to bring out the teacher within you!  Anusara teachers are among the world’s most highly trained and skilled. This hands-on course will give you all of the tools to grow into a truly outstanding teacher.

You will learn:

  • how to use your voice and your verbal instructions to inspire students to make shifts that can change their lives

This training occurs as a series of  seven weekend mini-retreats set amid the splendor of East Hampton’s exquisite natural beauty.

Our private chef provides spectacular healthy meals drawing on local and seasonal produce and destined to delight your senses. Out-of-towners are comfortably housed in private homes.

The course is spread out over 9 months to give you time to absorb our teaching techniques and put them into practice.
