Bio:
Trishka Lemos holds an Iyengar Yoga Intermediate Junior II level of certification, and comes with over 30 years of experience.
The Iyengar Yoga certification process is considered the "gold standard" of Yoga teaching credentials. It is very rigorous, ensuring a well-trained instructor in the art, science, and philosophy of yoga. Future teachers confirm their dedication through years of study: at least 3 years as students + an additional 3 years of a Teacher Training Program.
Teacher training includes the study of anatomy, physiology, philosophy, and practical teaching methods. Candidates for certification undergo an assessment process that includes introducing a mentor teacher and a three-part exam. Prospective teachers must demonstrate proficiency in asana performance, pranayama, teaching, and take a written exam in philosophy and anatomy. The evaluation is held by an external commission composed of senior level teachers.
In addition to completing the rigorous process of becoming a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher in 2006, Trishka has undergone a 4-year Iyengar Yoga Therapy Program. This program included an in-depth study of the appendicular skeleton system, the axial skeleton system, the organic body, and the nervous system.
Trishka was born in Aspen, Colorado and began practicing yoga in 1989. She has been to Pune, India more than once to study directly under the guidance of the Iyengar family, including Geetaji and Prashantji. While in Pune she also assisted in the medical classes.
Her on-going studies include:
Annual advanced intensives with senior Iyengar teacher, Patricia Walden.
Teacher Trainings, classes, and Yoga Therapy Intensives with Gloria Goldberg
Teacher Trainings, classes, and Yoga Therapy Intensives with Lois Steinberg
