A 200-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING + MINDFULNESS-BASED LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
ENROLLMENT WILL OPEN IN MAY OF 2022…
WE BEGIN IN THE FALL OF 2022
(2022 dates will be fully updated by mid-April)
Structured over 4 months, this in-depth yoga teacher training + mindfulness-based leadership experience will include four sections, broken down into eight modules.
The philosophy of this teacher training is based upon the understanding that we learn best through our personal and shared experiences. Therefore, each module will be experiential and exploratory so that trainees can develop a felt understanding (somatic) knowledge of yoga, mindfulness, and leadership as well as the principles underlying them.
This approach will be integrated with practical teaching methodologies so that trainees can effectively share this knowledge and emerge as embodied yoga teachers and leaders.

“Four years of therapy couldn’t teach me what Amber did in four months - that embodiment is the key, and you can’t think your way into it (or out of it). I have deepened not only my asana practice, but also my self-trust and worth, my spiritual devotion, and even my personal relationships.
This is a holistic program that provides holistic results. I had no idea how far outside of my comfort zone a Yoga Teacher Training would take me, or how far-reaching the results would be. Amber is a healer. She’s a bodyworker, an energy mover, a poet whose words will stop you in your tracks. Each of the modalities that Amber has woven through Boundless contributed, bit by bit, to my full surrender to the beauty of the universe. So, yeah, it’s about a lot more than perfecting downward-facing dog.”
“My experience participating in Amber’s YTT was life-changing! Someone once told me to make sure you trust, respect and enjoy the teaching style of the person that will be leading your training, so as soon as Amber announced the Boundless YTT, I knew it would be the perfect fit. She is incredibly knowledgeable and created a safe space for us to learn and grow together in community. We covered so much more than just the physical yoga postures, including public speaking, leadership, and finding our voice as a teacher. All of these things contributed to building my confidence to audition and land my first teaching gig within a week of graduating! I’m so grateful for this experience and can’t wait to share everything I’ve learned with my students!”
“Amber’s Boundless YTT will bring you deeper into the practice of yoga and deeper into your whole self. Amber incorporates rituals and experiences throughout the teacher training that allows her students to dive deep into themselves to emerge and grow as authentic, heart-centered leaders. Personally, this YTT brought about such insight and development, pushing me to pursue the aligned life I desire as a leader, yoga teacher, and human. This experience has given me the courage to move forward on my journey and pursue grad school. This teacher training has brought so much depth and meaning to my life. I am so grateful to Amber for curating this tremendous experience for her students.”

“Amber Campion is a phenomenal yoga teacher, and her Boundless Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) is far and away the most meaningful course I’ve ever taken for myself. Amber weaves together the holistic elements of yoga to formulate a comprehensive and engaging framework for her YTT. It is equal parts organized and profound. I can not recommend this experience highly enough, and to date, I haven’t found a better value for my money and time spent.”
“I can’t recommend Amber’s 200 hour YTT enough. She facilitated and created such a beautiful sense of community within the group of students that I truly felt at home during each gathering. We were given the space to show up as our most authentic, beautiful, vulnerable, messy selves. I was able to deepen my yoga and mindfulness practices in profound ways that I will continue to use on a daily basis. I did not intend on teaching yoga going into this training but I gained the confidence through the various leadership training sessions that I now plan to go out and teach in the community. I look forward to this new lifelong journey and can’t thank Amber enough!”
“Taking the YTT path with Amber was amazing medicine for my soul and my body. This course took me on a journey of listening to parts of my body, energy, and mind that take silence, community, and embodiment to hear, process, and grow from. Amber’s unique approach to the healing journey through yoga is such a blessing to witness, receive, and step into. I’ve been doing yoga for 15 years and have seen my body go through ebbs and flows, but this step into TRUE embodiment has been a life-changing experience.”
Meet Your Teacher:
Amber Campion is a trauma-informed yoga teacher/teacher trainer, breathwork facilitator, & mindfulness-based life + leadership coach. She is also the founder of Dynamic Release Flow {Method}™.
Amber has been practicing and teaching yoga + mindfulness for 15 years. She is an E-RYT500 (experienced registered yoga teacher) along with hundreds of hours of additional training focused on somatics and the subtle body. At age 25, she became certified in New York City as a Holistic Health Counselor and Yoga Teacher, first and foremost, to help herself with personal physical and mental health issues. At age 28, she did Vipassana (a 10-day silent meditation retreat) in the jungle of Brazil, experiencing a profound awakening. Since, she has received in-depth coach training (Master Transformational Coach) and yoga training (E-500 RYT), has been attuned in reiki, became a practitioner of neurolinguistics programming, and continues to bring depth to her work through training in martial arts, improv, shadow work, breathwork, energy work, and somatic therapy.
Her teaching style has been deeply informed and influenced by her six years teaching mindfulness to at-risk and incarcerated youth in New York City, as well as training martial arts for eight years. Since, she has led yoga teacher trainings, retreats, master workshops, and virtual experiences supporting ‘devotees to depth’ to build a resourced life at the crossroads of inner self-discovery and inner self-mastery.
Her yoga lineage stems from the breath-focused tradition of Swami Kripalu, though she practices and teaches a style she organically developed called Dynamic Release {Flow} Method. She has been privileged to study with many of the pioneers in bringing yoga (specifically yoga therapy) to the West, such as Leslie Kaminoff, Richard Miller, Peter Sterios, Amy Weintraub, Nischala Joy Devi, and Durga Leela. She studied Thai bodywork in Thailand, receiving her certification through the Sunshine School of Traditional Thai Massage in Chiang Mai, and has continued to study both the physical and energetic body in the U.S.A extensively with renowned teachers of yoga and the martial arts.
Her presentation style has been described as “motivating, inspiring, creative, funny and authentically, REAL.”
A beloved student of behavioral psychology, neuroscience, poetry, and storytelling brings a unique flavor and magic to her body of work and overall message that we are in fact…larger, better than we know.
Her work has been featured in Positively Positive, Thrive Global, Thought Catalog, YourTango, and The Yogipreneur. As well, she has collaborated with brands such as Specialized & has led workshops, retreats, and trainings throughout the world in Nicaragua, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica, Canada, Peru, Bali, and all over the United States.
“I would travel far and wide to take class with you again. I’ve never met a teacher who has come close to the magnificence, presence, skill, and art of your classes.”
NOTE: your primary trainer will be Amber. In addition (on occasion), she will be bringing in guest expert trainers from around the world. These will be some of her teachers, healers, and colleagues from Reno, New York City, and Europe. This will allow you to not only deepen your understanding of certain aspects of learning topics, such as fascia, functional anatomy, bandhas, and the subtle body, but also learn from other experienced teachers and healers.
This program is certified as a Yoga Alliance accredited 200-hr yoga teacher training.
You will be trained to teach a vinyasa (or flow) style class, as well as learn the fundamentals of a Dynamic Release Flow to enhance and inspire your own personal teaching approach.
Dynamic Release Method (aka Dynamic Release Flow)
Dynamic: a force that stimulates change or progress within a system or process.
Intelligent | Innovative | Inspiring
Dynamic Release Flow {Method}, is a one-of-kind yoga practice, created by Amber Campion. This practice is vinyasa (or flow) style yoga, integrating the presence of breath and sensation, along with deep self-myofascial release. Classes are inventive and thoughtful and the flow is both silky and strong with a mix of sun salutations, standing & seated postures, back bending, and inversions —guided by a steady breath and mindfulness. In the last 15 minutes of class, we go deeper into balancing the nervous system by doing self-myofascial release using tennis balls. The result is a heart-centering, body-opening, soul-expanding release. D.R.M will challenge you, illuminate you, and create an incredibly strong and resilient body and mind.
“Amber’s Boundless YTT Course was…well, I honestly find it challenging to put into words!! This was literally a life-shifting experience for me, shared with some of the most delightful souls on Earth. I signed up for Boundless because Amber was teaching it, she is such an amazingly unique facilitator. I knew she would offer her students WAY more than asana poses and she absolutely did just that! Amber is deeply caring and beautifully raw at the same time, a true blessing. Taking all that I have divinely received, I am making my way into my community and far beyond, I am deeply grateful. I initially signed up for Boundless to help enhance myself and my life’s journey; however, with my acquired skills I have decided to teach the gift of playful yoga, an idea that unfolded during my YTT journey, leading me to create POP (Power Of Play) Yoga. My YTT experience with Amber has been, and continues to be Pure Magick (that’s right with a “k,” it was magic and SO much more)!”

“Boundless was truly a life-changing experience for me. Each and every module held a unique opportunity for personal expansion and growth—introducing me to new concepts and deepening existing areas of interest. Amber is exquisitely skilled at creating a sacred container for group sharing and it was evident that each person in the class experienced a profound transformation during the months of training. Amber’s unique and poetic style of instruction & leadership serves as powerful inspiration, inviting her students to step into their potential and to trust the process. Boundless far exceeds the content of the manual—it’s a journey of self-discovery.”
“Amber is a beautiful soul that knows how to synthesize and share the wealth of wisdom she has, in a way that is easy to learn. Boundless taught us how to find our voice, break through our barriers and show up as leaders in our community. This experience also taught us how to help students feel safe in the classes we teach and how to facilitate a class that helps students tap into their body’s natural abilities to heal. Amber brought in top-notch guest speakers and provided us with experiences that helped us become confident yoga teachers. Several members of our group had teaching jobs as soon as we graduated! Taking Amber’s yoga teacher training will help you tap into your potential as a person and provide you with the necessary tools to become a leader, on and off the mat. Not only will you learn the tenants of yoga, you will grow as a person and create deep connections with the other students in the training. Amber’s Yoga Teacher Training is a life-changing opportunity you don’t want to miss! ”
“Boundless is a magical and transformational yoga leadership program. In 200 hours, Amber Campion guides her students through a life-changing experience that awakens the heart, spirit, and a deep understanding of embodiment and the subtle body. I will always be amazed by Amber’s grace, love and her attention to detail. She weaves heart, body, mind. and spirit-centered activities throughout the program to give each student the tools to embody what it means to be boundless. I walked away with a wealth of knowledge beyond what a traditional 200-hour YTT offers on the market. Completing this program has been one of the best investments I’ve made in 2021. I have the tools to embody both presence and grace in my daily life, all thanks to Amber... and I AM here! ”
