TEACHER TRAINING SYLLABUS 

Asana 

How the physical postures should be performed and sequenced. Includes variations you can give to students who may need easier versions and progressions into the full posture. We will also cover how and when to adjust a student's form.  

How to instruct a class 

You will learn the art of teaching, from sequencing, safe and effective alignment, hands on guidance, motivate and inspire students, teaching 'language', when to let students find their own way and how to manage groups with mixed levels of ability.

Anatomy, Physiology and Human Energy Design 

How the body works and how yoga can enhance the various systems within it e.g. muscular, skeletal, respiratory, endocrine etc. You will be able to explain the benefits yoga can bring to the body, mind, and soul.  

The Chakra system 

This energy system is a central concept that is shared throughout eastern approaches to health and well being. 

We think everyone interested in yoga needs to understand the critical difference between the tantric and classical yoga approaches to understanding, balancing and optimising the chakras.   

Kundalini Energy Transformation 

Often only covered in a mystical sense in standard teacher training courses, we will explain what it is, how it can be safely activated and what to do with it.  

Tantric Sanjeevani and Shambhavi Kriyas 

Kriya are translated as “action” and are used in several different contexts in yoga. The Kriya’s you will learn are a series of seated exercises that will activate energy channels in the body. With only a short amount of regular practice you can experience the life changing effects of these ancient and incredibly powerful methods that will bring the theoretical concepts of the chakra system to life by making it something you have physically experienced for yourself.   

Pranayama 

Your breath is the link between body and mind. The benefits of regular pranayama exercise cannot be understated. The tantric methods have subtle but very important differences to those taught in a classical yoga approach. You will learn advanced methods for your own personal practice and basic methods suitable for using in a class or workshop.   

Meditation 

The pinnacle of all yoga practice, meditation is so simple, yet so challenging. Fortunately there are techniques in both the classical yoga and tantric schools that you can use to rapidly accelerate your own progress and when leading group meditation sessions.   

Philosophy 

Exploring the yogic concepts of the universe, our existence in it and most importantly, how to create a life of love and fulfilment. Introductions will be given to key classical texts such as Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, and lesser known but equally important tantric volumes. This will include the 8 limbs of yoga and the 5 koshas.   

Yoga History 

From the original yogi's, known as Rishi's, right up to all the weird and wonderful "styles" of yoga on offer today. Learn the often untold story behind the evolution of yoga and what the different approaches offer.  

Indian Wellness Academy is a Registered Yoga School (RYS) with Yoga Alliance US, which designates this teacher training program as one which follows Yoga Alliance’s standards. Students who complete an approved training with this school may be eligible to register with Yoga Alliance as Registered Yoga Teachers (RYTs)  

What sets the course apart from the rest is that all techniques, methods and philosophy will be taught from what is today considered a classical yogic view point but also the lesser taught tantra view point. 

In reality, Tantra is a fundamental part of Yoga, the apparent divide is a result of historic social and political factors that will be explained as part of the fascinating yogic history element of the course. By bringing both approaches back together you will receive a more complete yogic understanding and the chance to learn the most powerful ancient techniques that you will not find in textbooks as they are only passed directly to a student from a guru.  

Our teacher training course will give you the most authentic and complete yogic training. 

The course is led by Ildiko Bakos and Sri Vijay Anand. 

Coming together from different fields of the yoga traditions with many different skills, you will not be short of inspiration and knowledge!
