What should I know and do to prepare for a Yoga Teacher
Training?
You should have a background in Yoga or a related field. If
you do not have access to a local Yoga teacher or an ashram,
you should read Yoga books and magazines, watch and
practice with videos, or get a Yoga home study course for
beginners. With all of the products on the market Yoga
instruction now comes in a variety of different formats.
As you start your own Yoga home study course, you will want
to gently explore getting into and out of postures, learning the
difference between mild discomfort and pain. Pain is where
you are pushing too far and often causes injury instead of
progress.
If you desire to teach, you should also explore pranayama,
meditation, relaxation techniques for a start.
Many of our candidates have been training for a few years
and some are uncertified Yoga teachers. This is not a
requirement, but a general understanding of Yoga will help.
Yoga related or holistic health fields have knowledge of body
mechanics such as: Physical Therapy, Pilates, Martial Arts,
Personal Training, Medical and Alternative Healing Methods.
Experienced practitioners and teachers from these
backgrounds should be familiar with modifications to postures
and contraindications.
