What People Are Saying
“Completed my course back in 2023, and wow, what an experience! This is a wonderful container with lots of mindfulness around creating a welcoming and loving space for learning growth and connection! Highly recommended!”
Jayson Spallina
200-RYT & Breathwork Facilitator Training Alumni
“I met lifelong friends. One of my favorite workshops was a deep dive into the chakra system- expanding understandings of myself in time & space. I was held in ceremony which encouraged healing, inner-spaciousness & guidance. Yoga asana every day plus an exceptionally peaceful environment offered respite from the fast paced world. This yoga teacher training offered more tools and a framework for applying yoga to my daily life. I would recommend this training to anyone seeking an integrated introduction to Yoga & Ayurveda. The staff is incredibly compassionate & knowledgable.”
Amber Peretz
200HR RYT & Education Professional
“The YTT training in Puerto Rico was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I had only done a few online yoga classes but Ira and the team had made it so friendly for all levels. The patience & grace that’s given, as well as the curiosity that is encouraged all throughout the training is so refreshing. I think what we learned on the mat was just a small percentage of it but the knowledge and wisdom that was given along with it made the experience that much more impactful. I not only came back knowing more about myself but with connections I’ll never be able to forget. I love the person I found myself to be after this training & I’m so grateful for Sacred Movement Academy for it.”

200-RYT & Breathwork Facilitator Training AlumniABOUT OUR PRACTICE & Lineage
We at The Sacred Movement Academy view yoga as a spiritual practice, as a path to self-realization, union, contentment, resilience, sovereignty, conscious connection, deepened awareness and mindful living. We understand Yoga extends beyond the time on the mat, and becomes alive as we embody our spiritual essence in the world for the purpose of creating positive impact in our communities, and beyond.
We strive to share the practice of Yoga with integrity, rooted in the Gauḍīyā Vaiṣṇava lineage, while bringing in the lens of modern science and psychology, to create a one-of-a-kind trauma-informed curriculum designed to support individuals in developing the skills to practice and share Yoga with individuals from all walks of life.
