Buddhism based yoga teacher training with Sadhita and Sudaka

Welcome and greetings!

We have developed a yoga teacher training programme of hatha yoga practice based firmly upon Buddhist principles and meditation.
 
We are offering a 200 and 500 hours training built around yoga and meditation retreats in Scotland, Spain and eventually in India.

Applications for the Foundation Module 1 course; 9 - 30 September 2012 in Solterreno in Spain are now open. 

Your future as a yoga teacher

The role of the yoga teacher in today's world is an important one. We are aiming in Bodhiyoga to bring about an integral and whole approach to yoga teaching, that especially incorporates meditation and a spirit of enquiry. As a yoga teacher, we are involved in a process of helping others learn about themselves. We use a series of methods, classical and modern, which are the tools for helping people grow and change. 

What we teach and how we teach, may have far reaching effects in the lives of our students. We never really know the full extent of the effect our yoga teaching will have. Some students will stay with you for many years, devoted to practising with you. Others will just be passing through, but non-the-less, they may still gain alot through your classes.

As a yoga teacher develops experience they become more apt at developing classes that are appropriate for the groups that they are teaching and therefore more beneficial. We move from the more generalised, to the more specific. In ancient times, yoga would have been an oral tradition whereby one student studied with a teacher and received individualised teaching based on the needs of the person in front of them. In modern times, classes are the more common teaching context. So we have to adapt to the needs of the people in our environment. 

You can do it

With guidance and encouragement, you will find yourself developing the confidence and clarity you need to lead groups and teach others. We will see to it that you develop to the best of your ability and really shine, as a teacher. Time, practice and patience bring about the best, in this respect. Bodhiyoga is therefore committed to training teachers to a high standard. We will give you all the support and training that you need to fulfil the role as a teacher.
