Most injury trainings are geared to the one-on-one private class setting, but today's busy yoga studios are attracting more and more people with injures, and teachers need to have the tools and confidence to support those students effectively.

Universal Principles

We are proud to announce that we have developed one of the first in-depth certifications - based on scientifically proven findings - for certified yoga teachers to increase their knowledge of how teach tried and tested exercises to help the students with lower back, disc, sacroiliac, hamstring, psoas and knee problems, as well as how to modify yoga poses for injury in a class setting.


On this 40-hour course, you will:

  • Receive personal instruction from Fierce Grace founder Michele Pernetta and Leo Sharma, osteopath and anatomy expert

  • Work with common injuries including slipped disc, sacro-iliac problems, hamstring injuries, psoas and hip issues and the three main types of knee injury

  • Use the latest sports medicine research on rehabilitation for specific injuries and conditions translated back into yoga postures
  • How to suggest modifications for the above as well as unspecified pain with no apparent "cause", arthritis and generalised joint pain
  • Learn modifications for over 40 yoga asanas that span all yoga systems and principles for modifying all poses
  • Learn which common asana alignment errors can cause injury or wear and tear
  • Teach less widely known practices that are helpful for injured students, including yoga nidra, pranayama and meditation
  • Work with older students and athletes with injuries
  • Approach students dealing with grief or trauma.


The course is open to certified teachers from an array of yoga, pilates and fitness backgrounds and runs over 2 weekends.

Dates: Aug 3rd, 4th, 5th and Aug 10th and 11th.
