This training offers a comprehensive introduction to the Rocket system, including Rocket 1, Rocket 2, and Rocket 3 sequencing, while providing the tools and confidence to incorporate Rocket methodology into your classes and personal practice.
During this immersive long weekend, you’ll dive into the rich history and lineage behind the Rocket system, tracing its roots through Patanjali, Krishnamacharya, Pattabhi Jois, Larry Schultz, and David Kyle. Gain insight into how Rocket Yoga evolved and why it continues to inspire practitioners worldwide.
