Roberto Amedeo Martocci

As a Anuttara Yoga Shala RYS 700 hr Trained Teacher, I have trained in three extensive 200 hours teacher trainings and one 100 hour training (Anuttara Hatha Yoga (200), Anuttara Raja Yoga (200), Anuttara Vinyasa Yoga (200), and Bhakti (100). It was, by far, the most diverse and extensive teacher training I have been blessed to come across. The focus of the teacher training not only focused on the flows and choreography, they included the anatomical functionality of each pose and each flow and the purposeful progression and reasoning behind each part the sequences. We also trained in the history, the language, the stories and how the philosophy and spiritual aspects behind yoga are integral to the sequencing that is taught. Knowing the purpose and anatomical reasoning and effect also inspires the students to understand the many Physical, Psychological and Spiritual reasons and benefits of this purposeful expression of yoga in this unique yoga training. With this classical foundation, I have learned the true value of a devoted yoga practice and how greatly it benefits the practitioner on many levels. It is what inspired me to earnestly train to become a yoga teacher, so that I may share this valuable, life changing practice that I am so deeply inspired by and devoted to. I am also an NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Trainer, Corrective Exercise, Performance and Nutrition Coach. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist with an a AOS degree in the anatomy, physiology and functional biomechanics of movement. I am also a Certified Sound Healer, Certified Energy Healer and a Shamanic Healing Practitioner. I was also a professional dancer and teacher for many years and have expertise in anatomical alignment, efficiency of movement and injury prevention through proper technique. I hope to expand my experience further as a Yoga teacher, so that I can show up in a more profound way for those who seek to have a strong and diverse yoga practice. Namaste!
