Online Courses
Michael had created and filmed several online courses in his life. The courses were crafted for students who wish to learn more about topics that may not be covered at their local yoga studios or meditation centres, or in the books they’re reading. They allow you to delve into techniques, philosophy, and practice from your own home, on your own schedule.
Generally speaking, all of our online courses include:
- on-demand videos;
- transcripts of most videos; and
- beautiful support materials.
