Unnata® Teacher Training Program

The Unnata Aerial Yoga Teacher Training program is available only to students who are already Certified Yoga Instructors.

Introduction

Use of the Yoga hammock prop helps students and teachers alike find a different relationship to gravity, deepening your understanding of alignment and Prana flow.

The course is structured as both an Aerial Yoga Teacher Training program, and for use as Yoga teacher continuing education. You need never teach an Unnata Aerial Yoga class to benefit from participating in the Unnata Aerial Yoga Teacher Training course.

Aerial Yoga may be a new concept, but the science of Yoga is not. Michelle Dortignac can teach you how to use the Aerial Yoga hammock as a prop for your Yoga classes, how to avoid gimmickry, and how to maintain that juicy relaxed and rejuvenated feeling you’ve come to expect from truly great Yoga classes.

The reason we chose the Unnata program is because it remains a yoga course, designed around the hammock, not a number of tricks under the guise of yoga. The after-course support from both Michelle, and the other Unnata teachers has been amazing. We are proud to be a part of the Unnata family.
- – Carly Michelle Bowden and Julie Swart; Aerial Yoga South Africa; Johannesburg, South Africa

Value of the Course

Unnata Aerial Yoga has already been established as the leader for quality in this new field of “suspension training.” We invite you to join our pioneering community of innovative, fun, and sincere Yoga instructors.

This course teaches you not only what to do on the hammock, but also explains why you are doing it. 

When you understand the reasoning behind why to use the hammock, your curiosity will be ignited and you can become your own guide for further inventions, even when unsupervised.  Your Unnata Aerial Yoga class sequences will always be creative while helping your students continue to unfold on the path of self-discovery we lovingly call “Yoga”.

Michelle Dortignac shares valuable knowledge she has discovered over 20 years of practicing, and 14 years of teaching Yoga, in addition to creativity from years of being an aerial acrobatic performer.

Michelle’s teacher training is experiential, creative and thoughtful. Her wealth of knowledge and professionalism gave me the confidence I needed to teach aerial yoga.
