What does the teacher training curriculum cover?
The Yoga Alliance 200-hour curriculum is a comprehensive journey into the heart of yoga. Our Teacher Training course here at Shiva covers fundamental aspects such as anatomy and physiology, providing a deep understanding of the body’s mechanics in relation to yoga practice. Philosophical teachings explore the roots of yoga, its history, and the application of yogic principles in modern life. The training delves into the art of effective teaching, encompassing class sequencing, cueing, and adjusting. Practical aspects include in-depth exploration of yoga asanas (postures), pranayama (breath control), and meditation. Our trainees engage in hands-on teaching practice, honing their skills under the guidance of experienced instructors. The curriculum is designed not only to impart technical proficiency but also to foster personal growth and cultivate the holistic essence of yoga in aspiring teachers.
