Once a student has completed their training and become fully certified with the Yoga Pilates Training Academy Australia P/L they are recognised as full members of the Yogalates Teachers' Association. Association members are then able to join our annual update workshops which extend over a period 4 days. At each update workshop we aim to include the latest developments in the industry as well as giving a focus on developing and honing teaching skills. Previous workshops have included working with weights for bone density, teaching on the fitball and foam roller, pre-natal Yoga/Yogalates, postural evaluation, Orthobionomy (a gentle yet effective bodywork with self care exercises to prescribe to clients), chanting and chakras, pranayama (breathing techniques) and more....

The workshops have been a great success and have given us the encouragement to continue to make them even more informative, interesting and fun filled. The stories shared about individual teaching experiences and how much the general public have gained through the Yogalates method is very rewarding. It has made us realise how invaluable the workshop is as a forum for sharing, refining and developing the work further.

The enthusiasm of the particpants is very contagious and it is sensational to see the buzz on their faces as they integrate and assimilate the new work. The feedback received has been invaluable confirmation that we’re on the right track and that the many long hours the Academy spends on developing this method is all worthwhile. The workshops are a fabulous opportunity for learning new techniques, refreshing teaching skills and making new friends within the Yogalates community, as well as a catch up with old friends from your training.
