We have designed this training with the best teachers available in their fields in order to impart to the students the passion they feel for their subject. The course focuses on providing a safe space and a nurturing atmosphere for an in depth study of the practice of yoga. This enables the student to deepen their personal practice and find their unique voice as a skilled yoga teacher.
During our teacher training program we will explore the essence of each pose, with the goal of enabling our students to have all the tools possible to teach inspirational yoga classes.
We are also looking for students with a genuine desire for yoga, willing to immerse themselves into the intensive weekends. The course will be challenging, but incredibly rewarding too, both in terms of your development as a Yogi and your new found skills as a teacher. Whilst your own practise will certainly develop throughout the year, the primary purpose of the course is to teach you how to teach – a very different skill. The best practitioners do not always make the best teachers! With many thousands of hours of teaching between them, our teachers will show you how to tailor a class to the students in the room. This is only possible with a solid grounding in your subject matter, giving you the flexibility and confidence to see what your students need and to give it to them.
On completion, the student will be able to teach a strong yoga class grounded in a competent knowledge of human anatomy, the psychology of practice, the teaching & learning cycle, and yogic tradition.
