Contact Hours
- You will begin your +300 hours with 288 onsite/contact hours training over the year from March 2019 to March 2020. Please note that when you compare 300 hour courses it is wise to ask what are the contact hours.

- Teaching: It is a requirement that you teach your own classes and workshops. Noeleen will support you with any issues or questions as they arise. This can be done by email or by phone.

Guest Teachers
JAYENDRA HANLEY E-RYT500
Jayendra began practicing hatha yoga and meditation a long time ago, and is amazed at how we continue to learn and grow in our practice, teaching, and in all of life. He is from the U.S., and has lived in Europe the last 12 years, where he has taught approximately twenty Immersions and Teacher Trainings in the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Spain, France, and England. He lives in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, where he teaches at Bindi Yoga Studio. Since ASHY got started he has been assisting European teachers through the certification process, and for the last two years, he has served as co-coordinator of the Anusara Curriculum team. The group created an amazing curriculum for new 300-Hour Advanced Teacher Training. Since Anusara began in 1997, he has been studying the core elements of Anusara methodology, and it’s a pleasure to take that knowledge to the next level through the ATT. Also, as a student of Paul Mueller-Ortega’s Shaiva Tantra and Neelakantha Meditation, he really enjoy sharing the practice of meditation and the whole spectrum of yoga philosophy.
Jayendra will be joining us at Ard Nahoo for the second Module in March, 27th-31st.
JEANNINE PLAICHE, E-RYT500
Bill works internationally with the yoga community in leading workshops and retreats on the cultivation and refinement of the spiritual life. He is known for his warm, lively and compassionate teaching style that is accessible to contemporary yoga students at all levels.
In these workshops and retreats, Bill integrates his knowledge of Indian philosophy gained through his discerning and informed scholarly study with insights refined through over four decades of his own yogic practice. He shares with participants what he himself experiences to be expansive and transforming wisdom held in texts he studies, and he guides participants in ways they can fruitfully apply these perspectives in their own lives. Bill’s teaching style is oriented toward sustained group discussion and includes periods of meditation.
Bill Will be joining us at Ard Nahoo for Module 4, at The Secret Heart Anusara Yoga Festival From the7th – 9th of June 2019.
