_____________________________________________________________

A training so nice, we're doing it twice! Lighthouse Yoga School is excited to offer another opportunity to join us in 2023 for our 300hr Teacher Training in Danena, Sicily! Learn to practice and teach our signature yoga class, JM Vinyasa, with clarity and precision. This training continues to be our most immersive and in-depth training to date, as we live on-site together for 3 weeks at the beautiful retreat center, Danena Sicily, with Jared McCann (E-RYT500) and Rebecca Causey (E-RYT500, FRCms), who share over 36 years of teaching experience. Our time together will be an immersion in yoga asana, anatomy, philosophy and practice-teaching. We will cultivate a daily asana and sadhana practice and study each posture in-depth from the perspective of student and teacher.  


Our 300hr Advanced JM Vinyasa Teacher Training is designed to help students enhance and refine their teaching skills and personal movement + meditation practice. Trainees will learn to effectively teach and safely practice more advanced asana and inversions, cultivate a daily Sadhana practice that includes mantra, kriya, pranayama and meditation, as well as take a deeper look into yoga history and philosophy, yoga anatomy, physiology and functional movement. 


Students who complete all the elements of this training will be eligible to receive a 300hr certification from Yoga Alliance, or add it to a previous 200hr certification to meet the 500-RYT requirement. Students who satisfactorily complete this program will also receive a 300hr certificate from Jared McCann and their contact information and teaching credentials will be added to our list of certified JMY teachers around the world.

  6. Develop + maintain a Sadhana practice (meditation, advanced mantra, pranayama, kriya)
  7. Build strength, improve flexibility, and refine technique through the inclusion of drills and other movement practices.
  8. Understand anatomy + physiology as applied to yoga asana, including how to guide students with limitations and injuries
  9. Utilize and cue advanced bandhas to increase stability, strength and energetic awareness
  10. Learn to teach excellent private yoga lessons
  11. How to succeed in the business of Yoga

Jared and Rebecca's 200-hour training was an experience of a lifetime. I couldn't be more thankful for their expertise, compassion, and commitment to their students' learning. They are both incredible teachers and genuinely amazing individuals who put so much love into what they do. I found their approach to teaching to be highly efficient, effective, supportive, personable, grounded, and impactful. Everything was so well thought out, and I really appreciated that it was all rooted in their self-practice. I went into the training not knowing anyone or what to expect and returned home with newfound clarity and excitement for my practices. I loved the community that came together. I miss them already, can't wait to attend Jared & Rebecca's next event! 🥰💖❤️‍🔥

Jared’s meditation intensives have been incredibly transformative, providing exactly what I needed. He combines humor, wisdom, and a down-to-earth approach, and I am grateful to have him as a teacher.

Thank you so much for guiding us thru sadhana ! Jarred is an amazing compassionate human that facilitates the process of healing tru meditation and yoga. I’ve never found another teacher that has so much knowledge from so many different modalities and shares it in such a sweet non judgmental way. The community that has grown form this group is something that keeps me coming back. Highly recommend it !

As a teacher, this is where I come to be a student again and continue my Psychic Education. Highly recommend Jarred and the LH community, It is great for Post YTT re-integration, continuing ed and a support system.

Absolutely loved this series!! Such a joy to practice with Jared again, and to get back into more advanced postures and techniques. Nothing quite like a JMY complete practice on my body/mind. Looking forward to the next one!!
