Rocket Immersion and

Teacher Training

Rocket Training: May 31–June 2, 2024

Rocket Yoga is a vigorous yet playful vinyasa yoga practice created by Larry Schultz for the Grateful Dead. Bob Weir named this rebellious remix of the rigid Ashtanga series “rocket” because “it gets you there faster.” The Rocket is a physically challenging yet playful practice that allows plenty of freedom and creativity. We are excited to host a long time student of Larry Schulz, Amber Jean, a.k.a. “Rocket Girl,” here in Louisville, KY for a 20-hour Rocket Immersion and Teacher Training.

Who is this training for?

This training is designed for 200-hour certified yoga teachers or individuals currently enrolled in yoga teacher training, but anyone who wants to deepen their practice and learn more about the Rocket practice from a seasoned instructor is welcome to attend.

What to Expect

In this 20-hour Immersion, we will do an in-depth study of the Rocket System as designed by Larry Schulz. We will practice Rocket 1, 2, and 3, learn the philosophy behind the Rocket system, cross train for handstand and forearm stand, study advanced arm balance and headstand transitions, and practice hands-on-assists. You will leave this training ready to teach Bottle Rocket 1, a shortened version of the Rocket 1 sequence.
