Hridaya School of Yoga
Join us in beautiful Buena Vista, Colorado
Hridaya School of Yoga is devoted to honoring yoga as a living wisdom tradition, one that weaves together breath, movement, philosophy, energetics, Ayurveda, and embodied awareness.
Through foundational teacher trainings, continuing education programs, and immersive studies, we support students and teachers in cultivating a practice that is both deeply rooted and authentically lived.
Blending tradition with meaningful modern application, our offerings invite students into a deeper relationship with yoga, not only as a physical practice, but as a path of study, self-inquiry, and transformation. Whether entering a foundational training or continuing along the teaching path, students are supported in developing an understanding of yoga that extends both on and off the mat.

Reiki I & II
with Amy Hardwick
August 29th & September 12th
Reiki is a Japanese energy healing practice rooted in a simple idea: that the body has an innate capacity to heal, and that we can support that process through intentional touch and energy work.
This certification training is for anyone drawn to that idea, whether you're looking for personal tools, a deeper self-care practice, or a new way to support the people you work with.
No prior experience required.
Level I: Reiki to Heal Yourself
This is where it begins. In Level I, you'll receive your first Reiki attunement and learn to use this practice on yourself… for stress, for balance, for the everyday work of feeling more like yourself.
We'll cover:
-
The history and foundations of Reiki
-
Introduction to the chakra system
-
Your first Reiki symbol
-
Grounding and protection rituals
-
Hands-on practice: on yourself and others
Level II: Reiki to Heal Others
In Level II, you'll deepen your attunement and expand your practice outward. We'll explore distance Reiki, additional symbols, and how to hold space for a full client session. We'll also talk about the practical side and what it looks like to offer Reiki professionally.

-
The science of Reiki
-
Two additional Reiki symbols

Distance healing practice

This training is an invitation to slow
down, to study deeply, and to experience yoga as more than movement alone.

Emphasis is placed on experiential learning, energetic awareness, intelligent sequencing, and developing the confidence to teach from an embodied and authentic place. Students begin practice teaching early in the training and receive ongoing mentorship, feedback, and support throughout the program.

Held in an intimate small-group setting, this mentorship-based training is open to both aspiring teachers and dedicated students looking to deepen their relationship with yoga on and off the mat.
