What is Chromatic Yoga?
Chromatic Yoga is a systematic approach to teaching yoga that values community and authentic self expression at the highest. Chromatic Yoga classes are educational yet integrative, providing students with the oportunity to breakthough mental, physical, and emotional boundaries in order to find more freedom on and off the mat.
Chromatic Trainings provide you with the necessary structure that underlies informative and transformative yoga classes, workshops and trainings. With each level of chromatic yoga you gain new skills that allow you to elevate your community of yogis.
The Certification Process
To become a certified chromatic yoga teacher you must complete the level 1 training which allows you to use the name for public and private classes, giving you the title of “Chromatic Teacher”.
Each training prepares you for different aspects of teaching and holding space for students’ transformation. Level 2 provides you with the skills and techniques to take students on a deeper journey into self awareness through what we call a thematic through-line. Level 2 teahcers have the title of “Chromatic Leader” implying you have the skills to not only teach but lead groups on a journey beyond the physical.
Level 3 “Impact” is the highest level of training in the Chromatic system gruanting the title “Integrated Leader”. Integrated Leaders empower their students to step into their highest potential, making a greater impact on their lives and the world at large.
Note: As Chromatic Yoga builds globaly requirements will change in order to provide the utmost levels of quality to our community.

Level 1: The Elements
This 5 Day training is designed for Yoga Teachers looking to expand their skillsets both as yogis and teachers. The Chromatic Yoga training is a highly structured approach to teaching that seeks to pull out the best in each teacher. My aim as the leader in these 5 days is to pull out the most authentic expression within each of you, and help you become the most powerful manifestation of yourself you can be. Rather than asking you to teach a certain style, Chromatic Yoga embraces the range of stylistic expression but helps each teacher to step into their fullest power!
Along with being open to a variety of stylistic expressions in asana, Chromatic Yoga Philosophy is also inclusive of various lineages. The one defining through-line that permeates the entire approach of Chromatic Yoga is our study and use of the Elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space. We use the elements as a basis for self reflection, personal growth, and transformation. The Elements are used as a guidance system as well as a communication tool which all Chromatic Yoga teachers study in order to strengthen the connection as a community. Community is one of the most highly valued aspects of this training. Each Level 1 Student will have a mentor to help support their individual growth and our collective growth as a community.
In the Level One Teacher Training You will Learn The Following:
- Anatomy – Mastering the ability to see “Joint Relationships” and learning how to decide which “Muscle Engagements” to emphasize in each posture
- Sequencing toward either a “Peak Pose” or “Peak Action”
- The Elements of Voice (level one) – Elements will also be applied to sequencing, practice, adjustments, coaching, and self reflection.
- Adjustment Philosophy, Guidelines, and Techniques
- Advancing Your Personal Practice

Level 2 Testimonials
Level 2 does not only help to refine our teaching techniques, but focusses very strongly on personal development by coaching sessions (pairs and group). In these we were able to learn on both sides: as the teacher / coach as well as the student / mentee. Matt has the ability to hold space for emotional breakthroughs and offers a save and very warm environment to open and grow. Coaching tied our group very strongly together and I have made friends with amazing fellow yoga teachers from all over the world, with whom I am still in contact with today.
I left the Chromatic Training feeling empowered, more skillful as a yoga teacher and open-hearted.
Chromatic Yoga has taken my teaching as well as personal practice really to the next level, by educating undogmatically. The community of Chromatic Yogis offers love and support and I am very grateful for it.
Level 3: Integration
Integration is a term used for taking two or more separate components and bringing them to work together in harmony. In Level 3 you learn how to take the Physical-Throughline (level 1) and the Thematic Throughline (level 2) and weave them through a class, workshop, retreat, or 3 day intensive.
In addition to mastering the through-lines, you will also become masterful at cuing isometric muscle engagements within each posture and being clear and concise in your delivery, in order to leave room for your theme.
Together we will take our coaching skills to the next level, supporting each other and developing the capacity to ask more, listen more, and say less. You will also develop the foundations of mentoring which blends coaching and teaching together, requiring greater skills and awareness.
Through coaching and being coached you will come to discover what your message is, and how to refine the delivery to your students. You will have daily practice giving dharma talks.

Airport and Train
There are several airports you can fly into to get to Connecticut. We highly recommend flying in to JFK, or LGA for ease in getting to one of the Metro North Train stations.
The Train has two locations to depart from: Grand Central Station, or Harlem 125th St. The two destinations closest to Goshen CT via train are Waterbury and Wassaic. (45 min car ride)
The Bus station is located at 42nd Street and 8th Avenue in Manhattan (Port Authority) and you can take the Peter Pan Bus line up to Torrington CT. Buses leave Manhattan twice a day at 9:30am and 5pm and arrive at 11:40am and 7:30pm. Torrington is only 10minutes from Our Little Farm so we highly recommend this option.
Rent a Car: Should you decide to rent a car (not included) you have the option to fly into Hartford CT (BDL) or Albany, Boston, or Westchester. If you use a company such as Enterprise Rent-a-Car or Hertz you will likely be able to return the car in Torrington, and we will pick you up from there. It may come in handy to keep the car for the duration of the training if you want the ease of being on your own.
