Yoga Teacher Training by Noah Mckenna

My journey into Yoga began in with regular Iyengar Yoga classes in my hometown of Adelaide. Right away I dropped all competitive sports having found the form of physicality which made me feel just right. During the first trip to India in 1995 began a traditional practice of Ashtanga Vinyasa in an old monastery in Mysore. Though it was when I started a regular daily meditation and pranayama routine in 2003 that I became grounded in Yoga, able to reliably produce a balanced state of mind. From 1989 it took me 10 years of Asana practice before I felt comfortable to start teaching classes I considered worthwhile for students, I was fortunate to have many talented teachers. Parallel to my personal enquiry into Yoga Ive deeply involved in complementary medicine. I completed a degree in Medical Science and a Postgraduate qualification in Chiropractic. Studied Acupuncture in China and many forms of physical therapy. Taken a post graduate course in Clinical Nutrition and explored Breath-work and Transpersonal Psychology. Reading list devoted to Neuroscience the last 5 years. Based in India since 2003 and annually travelling as a guest teacher to many schools internationally. Certified Teacher Trainer at the E-RYT 500 level with Yoga Alliance since its inception in 2003. Certified as a Yoga Therapist with IAYT and will be an IAYT approved Therapist Trainer faculty member in 2018. Maintained a private practice as a multi-modal Yoga Therapist for many years specialising in yoga related injuries and rehabilitation.
