Yoga of Energy Flow is a style of flow yoga in which breath, movement and asana are combined with physical and energetic alignments to create a transformational practice. Integrating strength training (physical body), energy cultivation (subtle body), and open awareness (causal body), Yoga of Energy Flow draws from Kundalini Yoga, Meridian Yoga, Kali Ray TriYoga, and Qigong with simple but powerful practices that increase and balance the flow of pranic energy through our body, mind, and spirit.

    I throughly enjoyed my experience with Yoga of Energy Flow 200 hour training that was held at Boston University FitRec. The class itself was held 2x/week from 6-9pm Mondays and Wednesdays which did take some adapting to get used to the schedule. The constancy of meeting twice a week for 6 hours allowed us to get to know each other on a deep level throughout the year. We gradually learned how to teach poses, then shorter sequences and eventually full classes to each other which was daunting at first but eventually very enjoyable. Since we became so close we were able to offer each other helpful and constructive feedback after each experience teaching. I deeply valued the time that we spent together and think that this structure was beneficial for all levels as we did so much yoga alongside learning how to teach yoga. Both Daniel and Andrea were wonderful and lively instructors with so much genuine love for the practice. They each had distinctive teaching styles and interests so it was very nice to switch off between the two for instruction. In addition there were also several guest lectures for topics such as philosophy, prenatal, anatomy and myofascial release. I found all of the subjects comprehensive and helpful. I am so grateful for my experience with Yoga of Energy Flow, since taking the course I have taught yoga and grown immensely in my own personal practice. I know my experience with yoga with be a lifelong development and I am very happy with the foundation that this class provided me.

    I learned so much from my trainers and gained a community of like minded people with a passion for wellness. My certification training was a life changing experience and I am excited to get started teaching and seeing where this journey takes me.

    Daniel and Andrea are the most amazing caring knowledgeable teachers ever. I am beyond grateful to have experienced my 200 hr training with them. They are the perfect combination that integrates all aspects of practice, from alignment to pranayama to philosophy and so much more. I would recommend them to anyone and the yoga of energy flow to anyone and everyone.

    The Yoga of Energy Flow program led by Daniel offers a highly organized and enriching experience for aspiring yoga teachers. Daniel's extensive expertise and guidance create an atmosphere conducive to growth and connection. The inclusion of various experts throughout the program allows for a comprehensive exploration of different yoga practices, enhancing the learning experience. One of the standout aspects of the program is its supportive and uplifting culture, which fosters a sense of safety and encourages vulnerability among participants. This supportive environment enables practitioners to delve deeply into their personal yoga journey and allows for meaningful resonance with the practices. Participants not only gain a solid foundation in teaching yoga but also discover nuances in their teaching voice and methods to effectively support students beyond the basics. I highly recommend the Yoga of Energy Flow program for individuals seeking a well-rounded and cohesive in-person training experience that enhances both their teaching skills and personal yoga journey!
