RYT 300 Holistic Yoga   Teacher Training

Overview

Are you ready to take your yoga teaching  to a deeper, more meaningful level to spread the wonderful benefits of yoga?

We are committed to offering a training programme that will not only add more on your existing knowledge but  prepare you to teach yoga comfortably at deeper level, we also aim to help you on your spiritual journey to inspire your future students.

​

Hatha is the mother of all asana practices and with that the most important and fundamental philosophy. Hatha is a general category that may include most yoga styles known in the West. It is an ancient system that includes the practice of asanas (yoga postures) and pranayama (yoga breathing exercises) which help to bring peace to the mind and body, preparing the body for deeper spiritual practices such as meditation. Being a qualified Hatha Yoga Teacher means you have a very broad skillset that allows you to teach many different Vinyasa, Hatha & Yin based classes. Your classes will be creative and varied, always aiming to bring peace of mind to your students.

Our 300 Hrs Teacher training is a unique, profoundly transforming and personal experience holistically that is based on the ancient Gurukula Teaching System which integrates the student's daily life into the yoga training. For twenty-six intense days of community living, students strengthen their own yoga practice through self-discipline and awareness of the nature of mind, body and spirit. They also develop further  on foundation from which they are able to teach others confidently & deeply.

Our teacher training provides a fantastic opportunity to awaken or deepen your yoga and spiritual knowledge, meet old and new friends and be a part of the global yoga community which is growing each day. The best part of all is learning that everything we need is already within us and how the practice can lead us into accessing our gifts and beauty from the inside out. The experience provides a great way to find happiness, peace and the ability to share the yogic philosophies with others.

Successful graduates of the course receive an internationally recognised certification by the Yoga Alliance for the 300 hours standard for Registered Yoga Schools (RYS).

The goal of this training programme is to add solid knowledge in inspiring yoga teachers who are able to draw on their own practice and personal discipline in imparting the yoga experience to others.
