About the Trainer
Nithya Priyan
Lead Trainer and Founder of the Nithya Priyan School of Yoga
Priyan describes his classes as poses teaching poses. His sequences are peak pose based structured progressions that intelligently and succinctly prepare a person's body for the requirements of the peak pose while developing muscle memory and proprioception,
He is a compassionate teacher that creates a space of safety and acceptance around the students who come seeking the calm and peace he radiates.
He inspires by example, himself grounded in a strong and consistent practice. His students are not pushed towards unsafe and unreachable goals but are pulled towards the Joy of exploring their boundaries and possibilities.
His boundless energy led him to pursue an intense full-time teaching career. He developed a structured approach to Yoga Asana's learning that benefits his students in establishing a long-term comprehensive understanding of the practice.
Noting the absence of such an approach in the current yoga environment, he founded the Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, where a chosen team of teachers are now taking this structured approach a step further as the School's 27-week curriculum.
Priyan sees the 300 Hour Teacher Training as a continuation of the initial 200 Hour offering. He will provide the same quality guidance to provide a continuing education towards the path towards Mastery & proficiency in his students.
