While a Lead Trainer guides the yoga teacher training, and a trainee participates, every yoga professional knows: this relationship is about more than instruction—it's about transformation.
That’s why our support doesn’t stop at serving Lead Trainers. We intentionally designed the Brain Cradle Training Manuals to be a lasting, interactive resource that nurtures trainees through every phase of their learning journey.
A Manual That Engages the Whole Student
Brain Cradle Yoga Training Manuals are in workbook format. This allows trainees to:
✅ Actively engage with the content
✅ Reflect and take personal notes
✅ Customize their experience through creative expression
✅ Return to key concepts again and again, even after graduation
We built this manual to meet diverse learning preferences, recognizing that not all yoga trainees absorb information the same way.
Promoting Body Neutrality Through Intentional Design
Yoga teacher trainings often include detailed asana breakdowns—but not all visuals are created with care. That’s why all illustrations in the Brain Cradle manual are:
Hand-drawn with intention
Inclusive of all body types
Designed to promote body neutrality, not comparison
Trainees are encouraged to focus on their own internal experience, not how their body looks or performs. This fosters deeper self-awareness and a more authentic connection to the practice of yoga.
Supporting Trainees Beyond the Studio
The manual is meant to be more than a requirement—it becomes a personal reflection journal, study tool, and supportive companion. It empowers trainees to integrate knowledge, build confidence, and feel seen throughout their certification process.
We don’t just support trainers—we create tools that uplift everyone in the room.
