It is especially good for students that really want to go deep into their desire to fully live a yogic lifestyle and enhance themselves.

What you will study
200 hour level Anatomy and Physiology:
A full and comprehensive course covering everything from connective tissue and muscular system to the anatomy of energetics with the breath and bandha, and how to bring this knowledge into your teaching. This in depth module will set you apart from many Yoga Teachers as we bring this knowledge out of the Anatomy book into your teaching. We also cover the vitally important concept of the students individual skeletal differences, understanding when they are feeling tension and when they are feeling compression, and how we can adapt the posture to suit their individual bodies.
The History of Yoga and The Role of the Yoga Teacher in the West:
Here we cover the theories behind the roots of Yoga and Patanjali, how Yoga come to the West and what brings people to Yoga. We also look at the concept of working spiritually as part of a cooperative group and our ego driving modern society. We also discuss the impact of the Yoga Sutras on Yoga and its development and the connection with Yoga and religion. We will also look at the individual demands of teaching yoga in the West, such as the physical stresses on the body from a predominantly sedentary society due to hours spent seated.
Different Styles of Yoga and their impact on Modern Postural Yoga
This course is based on Hatha Yoga, but you will also learn how to offer both Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga. Healing Yoga is a whole body awareness Yoga Teacher Training and offers you the opportunity to work on the whole body, the connective tissue as well as the muscles. Yang style yoga works on strength whilst the Yin style yoga works on the connective tissue and fascia.....to bring health and harmony back to the body we have to know how to connect with the whole body.....not just the muscles.
We also look deeper at the differences between the different styles available to us now and ask such questions as....
How would you explain to your students why there are so many different styles of yoga available?
Many students are confused by the different styles. Is it important that they understand the differences?
Vedic and Tantric Traditions
Vedic and Tantric traditions are one, though with different orientations. The Vedic tradition is earlier and Tantra is one of its developments, mainly through the Puranas. Tantric teachings abound in the use of Vedic mantras and the mysticism of the Sanskrit alphabet. They use Vedic fire altars and practices and honor Vedic deities at an inner level. Inner Tantric Yoga reflects the four main Vedic deities of Agni, Soma, Vayu and Surya (the forces of fire, moon, wind and sun). In this module we will look at how these two traditions are one.
The Spiritual Teaching of the Eightfold path
In this section we start looking deeper at what the true meaning of Yoga is and the 'Journey' of Yoga. We look at our individual relationship with the practice of Yoga and how that has developed and how it can develop. We discover that the art of yoga is to re-connect the mind body and spirit, and learn how to teach this to our students, and how we show this in our practice. We dive into the concept of Enlightenment and the journey towards this.
The Yamas:
Looking at how we can bring these teachings into our own practice and also how we can offer these teachings to our students in the class setting.
The Niyamas:
Looking at our own commitment to our practice and how, as yoga teachers we show up to the the world. How we interact, how we react and how we want to live our lifes. Then once we have really and fully understood that our lives can reflect the deeper teachings of yoga, then we learn how to offer this to our students.
Asanas : Sequencing for Flow and Restorative Practices:
Throughout this intensive course we look in great detail at the art of sequencing and how we target postures, themes or energy through the sequence. With Healing Yoga we need to ensure that we appropriately sequence for the correct level of the student, and to enhance an healing environment.
We learn how to create mindful sequences that seamlessly flow from posture to posture, supporting the concept of complete body awareness. We need to be mindful of language and expectations. We also need to offer variations to be all inclusive.
Healing yoga is about creating an environment, physically, emotionally and spiritually, to enable the student to become more self aware of patterns and self sabotaging thought process.
This is an deep but extremely rewarding module that really gives you the tools to help students heal and grow.
Students start teaching from day one, building their confidence and skills in a safe supportive environment. Throughout this process you are given a lot of support, feedback and encouragement to give you the tools to become a great teacher.
Ayurvedic view of asana practice
Yoga views asanas not merely as static poses but as conditions of energy, which in turn are manifestations of consciousness. The energy and attention that we put into the pose is as important as the pose itself. We can see this in ordinary life in which how we feel on a psychological level determines how we move on a physical level. Long term patterns of feeling and energy determine the form and rhythm of the body.
Alignment and Adjustments:Working with Chronic Pain
Safe alignment is vital for the well being of our students, so we look in detail at each individual asana and how we can adjust the asana for different levels of student. Looking at contra indications to create safe teaching practices. The reality of teaching yoga is that the majority of your students will have some degree of past or present injury history. Therefore part of your training is designated to helping you understand how injuries leading to chronic pain develops and how you can help your students both physically and mentally to deal with their chronic pain whilst still enjoying the benefits of Yoga. It is estimated that up to 80 percent of the population will at some stage in their lives suffer from some form of chronic pain. These students need your help to bring back strength and flexibility. As the author of Breaking the Attachment to Pain, I will help you feel confident to deal with all students levels. We also look in detail at the importance of props in our practice. And how and when to safely use hands on adjustments.
Pranayama
Here we cover different types of Pranayama that are suitable to include in a class setting. The science behind the practice and the benefits of developing breath awareness and control. We also give you the tools and confidence to teach it to your students.
Meditation:
Here we learn how to teach people to concentrate and then bring that concentration into the various types of meditation. You will learn how to teach meditation as part of a class or as separate workshops. We practice meditation daily to also develop our own practice and fully understand the science and benefits behind the role of regular meditation.
Pregnancy and Contra Indications:
Yoga is for everyone, and illness, chronic pain and pregnancy should not exclude people from gaining the enormous benefits from the practice. Many Yoga Teacher Training courses do not cover this area and therefore leave new Yoga Teacher Teachers unprepared for the vastness of students demands and levels. As an experienced and qualified Yoga Elder and Author of Breaking the Attachment to Pain I am passionate about this subject, and have spent many years helping people feel confident in the healing practices of Yoga. This module will give you the skills to create a safe yoga teaching environment for all levels of students.
Psychology of Teaching and the Role of the Yoga Teacher:
The structure of this module is aimed to help you understand how to actually reach our students. Using vocabulary that is appropriate in each situation, and encourages growth and self awareness.
We also look deeply at how the ego of the teacher can affect our teaching and class environment.
Developing a home practice
We all know that a regular consistent yoga home practice is where we see growth and results. But how do we stay committed and motivated and how to we encourages our students to develop a regular home practice.
We look at ways and techniques to keep our students focused to help them develop their individual practice.
Professional Development and Marketing:
The structure of this final module will depend on the goals of the student and therefore tailored to them. It consists of 6 monthly skype mentoring calls to help the new student develop their yoga teaching goals.
