Study in the practice of yoga, and it’s teachings...
Our extensive 200 hour Yoga teacher training and comprehensive studies program includes Vinyasa Yoga and Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, combined for a thorough and practical understanding of Yoga and it’s teachings. We will study the classical and contemporary techniques from the best major systems of yoga such as Ashtanga, Iyengar, modern techniques such as yoga conditioning, movement modalities, restorative practices, pranayama and more. These studies will assist you in cultivating a deeper understanding and connection to your personal practice as well as build confidence and gaining the preparation needed to be a well-rounded teacher.
MYS’s Teacher Training course will concentrate on Vinyasa yoga sequencing thru the classical foundations, teaching a yoga class effectively & safely, understanding the student and creating your own style of teaching. Techniques that will be used to accomplish this are a study of the body, anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and movement. We will learn about meditation, pranayama and the science of breathing, how we use the breath to cultivate energy while quieting the heart mind relationship. History, philosophy and ethics will be discussed as we delve into the Yoga Sutras. Safe assisting instruction, either physical or verbal descriptions will be reviewed as well as the importance of props and modifications to be able to assist others safely through their practice. We will discuss teaching philosophy, ethics, proper sequencing, marketing and building your foundation as a teacher. All of this will take your Yoga and your self to the next level. By the end of the course, upon completion you will not only receive your 200 Teacher Certification approved by Yoga Alliance but a wealth of information, wisdom and insight to continue on your yogic journey with.
