300-HOUR SMARTFLOW MODULE
for teachers and dedicated students
November 5th-9th 2025From Concentration to Spaciousness; Inquiry to Bright Clarity.
An 40hr Intensive for Teachers and Experienced students with Annie Carpenter at SARANA.
Join Annie for a powerful exploration of Yoga’s root Continuum: from Kaivalya (the freedom that arises from total isolation from the outer world) to Yuj (to unite or be absorbed in the Whole).
Evolve your practice from the exacting eka-grate (one-pointed focus) to the depth of full integration that Yoga promises. This Retreat-like Workshop is designed for teachers and experienced students who are ready to fully sense the subtlety and specificity that comes from deepening internal awareness, and stay with the process of discerning and unwinding one’s Samskaras (ingrained habits). Experience all the limbs of yoga — breath and movement, skillful direction of attention, action and reaction, and meditation, woven together with the golden thread of classical philosophy.

Meet Annie Carpenter
The Teacher’s Teacher
Annie Carpenter is the creator of SmartFLOW Yoga—a method that blends classical wisdom with modern movement science, rooted in inquiry, discipline, and love. With a background in professional dance and decades of study across yoga traditions, Annie brings unparalleled depth and clarity to her teaching.
Her journey began in her teens, practising at Integral Yoga under Swami Satchidananda while training at the Martha Graham Studio in New York. Inspired by the expressive power of movement, Annie later taught at Butler University, where she developed therapeutic movement for healing. In the 1990s, she studied extensively with Maty Ezraty, Chuck Miller, and Sri Pattabhi Jois, leading YogaWorks teacher trainings for years and mentoring many of today’s senior teachers.
SmartFLOW is the culmination of her lifelong devotion to the body as a path to truth. Grounded in anatomy, enriched by tradition, and elevated through mindfulness, Annie’s classes are known for their precision, warmth, and soul. Now based in the San Francisco Bay Area, she teaches internationally and online via Glo, continuing to inspire students and teachers around the world.
