register Part I | register Part II

Part 1 – Step Into the Flow - 36 hours

(jump to Part II)

Anusara Immersion is intended for dedicated students who wish to go deeper into their understanding of Anusara Yoga® principles and the Tantric philosophy that supports the practice. It is a transformational opportunity to "immerse," not only into Anusara Yoga, but through this innovative and elegant method, to dive into the presence and joy of your own being.

The complete Immersion is 108 hours in 3 parts, with a curriculum created by John Friend, Anusara Yoga’s founder. Immersion is meant to be a course all of its own, for students who wish to go further down the path. It is also the prerequisite for Anusara Yoga Teacher Training. You will need the full course of Immersion, at least 100 hours, to attend a Teacher Training with John Friend or another certified Anusara Yoga teacher.
