250 HR FOUNDATION YOGA TEACHER TRAINING
Our 250 hour Yoga Alliance Registered Course represents our heartfelt desire to offer a comprehensive and inspirational Foundation Teacher Training Course. This course is suitable for experienced yogis wishing to further their practice and develop teaching skills, as well as for practitioners that simply wish to deepen their level of understanding and practice of yoga.
Your training will be non-dogmatic, conducted in a supportive and nurturing group environment. Our course draws on the knowledge from a number of yoga traditions, including Iyengar, Ashtanga, Hatha and Vinyasa yoga. This will establish a broad foundation and understanding of yoga’s diversity and depth encompassing asana, restorative work, meditation, pranayama, applied anatomy, yoga philosophy, and developing and practicing teaching skills.
TRAINING
Students receive detailed practical training in how to teach yoga, alongside developing skills firmly rooted in the students own work and understanding of the practice. This ensures an integrated approach that develops compassion, creativity, personal integrity and safety, both as a practitioner and teacher. Trainees will gain a comprehensive understanding of how to observe, modify and safely adjust. Our main focus will be on developing a personal practice that supports, nurtures and sustains our trainees and how to develop their own teaching based on this understanding.
Focus is also given on how to sequence a class to suit the trainees’ own personal style and the demands of your students. This multidisciplinary approach, gives our teacher trainees the strong foundation required to teach the diverse culture and mixed ability of students we have in Ireland.
