30 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification Course

In Person with Dr. Trish Corley
The Best Online Yoga Anatomy Course
You’re ready to take your yoga practice and teaching to the next level, but you’re struggling to connect the dots between anatomy, biomechanics, and teaching effective classes.
I created The Yoga Anatomy Certification course to help!
This program is for you if you want to:
Confidently sequence anatomy-informed yoga classes with ease and efficiency.
Empower every student with safe, effective, and personalized yoga experiences.
Whether you're a new yoga teacher feeling lost with anatomy or an experienced teacher wanting to deepen your skills, this program will transform your teaching and elevate your confidence. This is also great for practitioners who want to better understand how to best move their body in asana.
Learning anatomy and biomechanics for yoga does NOT have to be overwhelming.
With my proven, step-by-step framework, you’ll learn to build impactful sequences and adapt any posture to suit the unique needs of your students.
“I enjoyed Trish’s anatomy class so much, not only for the content as for the energy and passion she puts in every class!
Her classes are so dynamic and practical, that you will integrate the learnings so easily at the end of her teachings!
Trish is the type of teacher you always dreamed of: she keeps you engaged, provides digestible content and makes you want to know more about human anatomy!
Whether you are a beginner yoga teacher or an advanced one, her classes can go as in depth as you need 💙🧘🏻
- Adina, Yoga Teacher from Romania
Go From.......
❌ Struggling to adapt postures for different bodies and abilities.
❌ Feeling like anatomy is over your head and that you can't really learn it.
To.......
✅ Adapting sequences and the postures in them with with ease.
✅ Being a sought-after teacher who empowers every student.
Most 200 hour yoga teacher trainings do not provide the tools you need to understand anatomy so that it is a source of creating your sequences and offering modifications.
In fact, many yoga teachers are not even aware that they can learn the science of body movements and use it to create highly impactive and intelligent sequences. It can be done with ease with a systematic approach, especially when you learn from a skilled and passionate teacher.
Learning anatomy, creating sequences, and offering modifications with confidence is not limited to teachers with years of experience or a special talent.
If you want to teach yoga in a way that empowers students while ensuring they feel safe, you are in the right place!

About Your Teacher
Hello there!

Hello there! I am Dr. Trish Corley.
Experienced yoga teacher/trainer, doctor of physical therapy (physiotherapy), and anatomy professor having taught yoga anatomy all over the world since 2012.
I’ve developed this yoga anatomy certification program to help yoga teachers like you confidently integrate anatomy and biomechanics into your teaching, so you can build sequences, adapt postures, and empower every student you teach.
Through years of experience, I’ve spoken to hundreds of yoga teachers struggling to learn anatomy. Most feel they did not learn enough in their 200 hour training or that what they did learn was not applicable. Many try to learn on their own, but give up quickly because they don’t have a structure to follow. Many teachers feel like an imposter because they don't really understand how bodies move, how to really build intelligent sequences, or how to adapt postures for students in ways that are based on body mechanics.
Drawing on my talent to make complex things simple and my experiences as a physical therapist (physiotherapist), anatomy professor, and yoga teacher trainer, I’ve developed systems of learning anatomy for yoga teachers. My systematic approach is simple, fun, and impactful!
Whether you are a new yoga teacher unsure where to start with anatomy or a seasoned yoga teacher wanting to better understand anatomy, The Yoga Anatomy Certification YTT provides you with practical tools to use right away.

Welcome to Mandira Retreats
Our rustic retreat house is set in a tiny Portuguese village called Eira Velha. A 7 min drive from the township of Vila de Rei, known for the Geodesic Centre of Portugal (where North, South, East and West meet in the country). We call it rustic as its made from the noble materials of stone and wood, however it was newly renovated from a ruin between 2017-2020. This charming 6 bedroom village house has 5 living spaces, 4 bathrooms and two terraces which give you a sense of a mini medieval castle as you walk through the front door. We welcome our home into its new era of a place to practice yoga.

I love how the anatomy workshop is really accessible and easily understandable.
During my YTT days, I struggled the most with the anatomy portion, and hence this is why I am here at the workshop to continue my training beyond YTT.
This will definitely aid my teaching and being better equipped with anatomical knowledge will allow me to cater my classes for different bodies.
