OVERVIEW

The 200-Hour Forrest Yoga® Foundation Teacher Training (FYFTT) will take place at a residential retreat center called Sunburst Sanctuary in California (about 45 minutes west of Santa Barbara)! This is the FIRST modular 200-Hour FYFTT, designed especially for those who cannot take off for a full month. Imagine not having to worry about things like food, transportation, or accommodations so that you can focus on learning, relaxing in your free time, and connecting with your tribe.

This FYFTT comprises of two modules. Each of the two modules is 12 days (plus one check-in day prior). In between modules, you will complete required online training and assignments, including the functional anatomy course taught by Ellen Heed. The second module concludes with a Business Course.

ABOUT SUNBURST SANCTUARY

Their purpose is to create a fertile environment, within and without, that cultivates spiritual growth and nurtures each person’s direct experience of the Divine. This is the journey of Self-realization. In accordance with their mission, Sunburst is also passionate about exploring, implementing and sharing principles of regenerative Earth stewardship through permaculture and organic farming.

FAQs

Sunburst is at 7200 S Highway 1, Lompoc, California. It’s about a 45-minute drive west of the Santa Barbara airport. You could fly into Los Angeles, a bit farther away, from Sunburst. You are responsible for arranging your own transportation to Sunburst. Around February 2018, we will invite you to join a private Facebook group to help you arrange ride shares if you’re interested.

You have 2 options from which to choose: Shared Cabin or Part-Time Camping.

Shared Cabin: 3 people per cabin, 1 bed per person.

Part-Time Camping: Bring your own tent. Camping is only allowed in the 2nd module, not the 1st module. In the 1st module, you stay in a shared cabin. In the 2nd module, you live in your tent every night for all 12 nights. This is the most affordable option and great for those of you who enjoy camping. Camping Part-Time tuition covers your shared room in a cabin in the 1st module and camping in the 2nd module.

Shared bathrooms and showers for everyone.

There are two washers and two dryers available for your use during designated times. Be prepared to donate $1 per wash and $1 per dry. Sunburst will provide detergent. Bring yoga  clothes that can be dried in the machine. There isn’t space on the property for everyone to hang-dry their clothes. You will be wearing about 2 different yoga outfits per day. We recommend that you bring at least 10 different yoga outfits.

We are offering you two different 30-Day Limited Specials that expire on July 30, 2017.

The 1st Special, the SUPER Early Bird rate, is the lowest tuition rate possible. The tuition price is $600 lower than the Regular rate and $100 lower than the Early Bird rate! Expires July 30, 2017.

The 2nd Special, the Early Bird Lock-In, is good for those who want the Early Bird rate but can’t pay it in full now. To qualify for the Early Bird, pay a non-refundable $300 deposit by July 30th. The benefit of taking advantage of this special is that you reserve your spot AND get more time than the standard Early Bird due date to pay off your balance. Your due date to pay off the balance is one month prior to the training (as opposed to two months prior) or when the training sells out, whichever comes first.

Tuition Summary:
Camping Part-Time: Early Bird $5400 / Regular $5999
Shared Cabin: Early Bird $5640 / Regular $6239

Early Bird expires February 19, 2017. However, if you participate in the 2nd Special (Early Bird Lock-In with $300 deposit), then the Early Bird expires March 19, 2017 or when the training sells out, which ever comes first.

Residential tuition covers BOTH modules, all manuals from both modules, all morning ceremony and intensives, all afternoon training sessions, lodging, amenities, all meals.
It doesn’t cover travel costs, laundry, Anatomy Course, an extra night’s stay on the last day of the training (i.e., the night of May 1st and August 28th). The estimated cost for the Anatomy Course is $375. You can choose to take the Anatomy Course online or in-person.

There is cell phone service at Sunburst, but it can be spotty. AT&T works very well. Verizon works ok. Sunburst also has wireless Internet available in one designated outdoors area next to the office. There is no wireless Internet available anywhere else. You are welcome to bring your own personal hotspot device or commit to unplugging throughout the training.

The Forrest Yoga Organization’s policy is no refunds, no credits, no exceptions.

Once you pay, you will receive an email containing a link to the application (check your spam folder). If you cannot fill out the application at that time, then bookmark the page for later. If you aren’t accepted into the training, then you will be refunded in full.

We understand that some of you have friends who are also taking the training and that you’d like to room with them. The answer is – most likely, yes. While we cannot guarantee it, you have a better chance of being able to room with each other, the sooner you register. When you fill out the registration form, answer the roommate preference question to inform us of your preference.
