About

Axis Yoga Trainings is a school dedicated exclusively to teacher trainings, workshops and intensives. Formally the Denver Institute of Yoga, we began our work in 2003 in response to the request of our students who wanted a more in-depth immersion into the practice of yoga.

The school has continued to grow over the years and we now have  nearly a dozen staff members and presenters with over 100 years of combined experience.  Starting in the fall of 2009 we have begun conducting our program on a qualified donation basis to further align ourselves with the teachings and invite more diversity into the program.

The training is marked by it’s in depth presentation of all 8-limbs of Ashtanga Yoga.  Raja Yoga, as it is sometimes called, is an ancient system of practice designed to bring harmony to one’s immediate life and ultimately unit the practitioner with their deepest spiritual essence.

I give credit to my primary teacher Baba Hari Dass for instructing me and and countless others upon this timeless path of yoga.  It is in the spirit of his teaching that this course is offered.    

In the Spirit, Tradition and Service of Yoga,
