What does the Yoga Teacher Training Programme cover?
The Active Balance yoga teacher training programme covers in detail, specific theoretical knowledge and practical skills:
Practical skills include:
• An extensive range of yoga poses (asanas)
• Specific breathing techniques (pranayama)
• Mudras (a posture that channels energy into particular chakras (plexus) and in turn affects the organs to which it is connected) and bandha (lock, involving contraction of the muscles and organs causing energy to accumulate at a particular plexus)
• Concentration and meditation techniques (dharana and dhyana)
All techniques will be studied in detail and from a balanced perspective in terms of a modern understanding of, but not limited to, anatomical alignment, indications, contraindications, preparatory poses, contraindication, follow up poses and modifications as well as the age-old values of an authentic yoga lifestyle.
Theoretical skills include:
• The anatomy of yoga – applied elements of anatomy and physiology
• The energetic anatomy – in-depth exploration of the chakras and the nadis (power lines), their influence on our wellbeing and as tools for personal development
• Yoga philosophy and how it applies to our practice and daily life
• A good understanding of Sanskrit terminology
• The art and science of teaching yoga classes
• The business of yoga: training, membership to professional bodies, insurance, licencing, current relevant legislation, marketing, professional boundaries, ethics of teaching yoga and more.
The Active Balance Yoga Teacher Training programme will focus on Integral yoga as a style; bringing together Hatha Yoga, Principles of Vinyasa, as well as Swara Yoga, Laya Yoga, Yantra Yoga, Karma Yoga and Raja Yoga.
