This 300 hour Yoga teacher training is designed for instructors (with a 200hr YTTC certificate) who want to boost their creativity when it comes to preparing classes and refine their teaching skills.

This 4 week intensive offers you the opportunity to feel comfortable and confident correcting, aligning and adjusting the students in class and knowing about injuries and how to address them in a group class.

4 weeks to dedicate to yourself, to your practice, to your body, to your mind. Challenging you to dig deeper on what yoga means to you, and creating moments where YOU are present within yourself, while growing your community of peers and sharing experience.

Adjustments

We know it might sound weird, but we will start at the end. You might ask, why do we learn adjustments straight away, right from the beginning of the course. It’s because it is one of the main focuses of the training. We want you to know how and when to adjust properly, and to master this you need a lot of practice. So, we will start by learning the adjustments in Week 1 which will give us the opportunity to keep working on and refining them for the remainder of the 5 weeks.

Inspire the teacher within

In Teaching Methodology we will spend a lot of time creating sequences, and extracting the juice out of it. We will use games and creative activities to bring together the knowledge of all the assistants on course (all need to have a previous 200hr training course).

Go deeper in anatomy

We will revise the basics of our anatomy knowledge and then spend time to explore the body joint by joint, discussing the main injuries that can happen, analysing why, and how to avoid them. We want you to be able to support and encourage everyone that comes to your classes.

Practice

Probably, one of the reasons that you want to take a YTTC again is that you’ve noticed that since your 200hrs it’s hard to find the time to have a 3 hour practice every day. This course offers you a place where you can reconnect to Asana as well as your Pranayama, Meditation and Kriyas practices so you can come back to yourself. This is also an opportunity to enjoy being led by others and focussing on bringing your personal practice to the next level.

Philosophy

This module explores self-reflection and how Yoga ethics relate to practice and teaching. You will develop your awareness of the Yoga Sutras as well as the relationship between Asana, Pranayama, and Meditation per our school’s approach. You will gain a sense of familiarity with major Yogic texts such as Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, and Hatha Yoga Pradipika.
