This continuing education training is for teachers and practitioners looking to deepen their practice and understanding of the Rocket Yoga system. Dive into the history, gain a solid understanding of the sequences, and strengthen or begin your inversion practice.
The Rocket is a dynamic, energetic practice developed by Larry Schultz in the 80s while touring as the yoga teacher for The Grateful Dead. It is a remix of Ashtanga Yoga that removes the hierarchy of postures, giving students control over their own creative process. The sequences invigorate and strengthen students with advanced postures while still staying accessible through variations and practicing acceptance of where you are.
