Description Yoga teacher training

We are a team of physiotherapists, sports and health scientists as well as educators and lecturers and we love yoga. This means that we are very familiar with the anatomical and physiological processes of the body and can convey this professionally and clearly. What unites us is the heart of our training: yoga. It doesn't matter whether you are interested in the physical aspect of yoga and want to know which muscles are stretched or activated during which exercise and which exercises are used to train core and supporting strength, or whether you are looking for a mental approach to yoga and want to unite your body and mind through breathing and meditation exercises – with us you are in the best hands. We manage to find a holistic connection between the physical and mental levels and to maintain the balance between the fitness-oriented yoga of modern times and the classic, original idea of ​​yoga. For us, the focus is on practice; We devote ourselves in detail to exploring asanas, breathing and meditation techniques as well as various relaxation techniques. The practical experience is rounded off with the theoretical teaching of anatomical and physiological structures and modes of action as well as the didactic structure, planning and implementation of a course lesson. Furthermore, we address the question of what yoga actually is, where it comes from and what it wants to achieve, and we explore together the historical development and the philosophical strands of the various movements. Our highlight is that we convey the content of our yoga teacher training closely linked to the aspects of Ayurveda. For us, both yoga and the sister science Ayurveda are inextricably linked. Our great advantage lies in our many years of experience as well as our extensive training in the areas of Ayurveda, meditation, relaxation education as well as Feldenkrais and Pilates. Together we create a mindful approach and create space for personal development and development. Our training takes place in direct contact in our lovingly furnished yoga center right in the heart of the water town of Brandenburg. Our center is embedded in green nature; Parks and the Havel are within walking distance.
Training description
Basic training
Our basic training (200h) includes the first seven modules. In this we lay the foundation for the development of a teacher who feels confident in the theory and practice of yoga and can therefore teach the first units. We deal both theoretically and practically with the different approaches to yoga and learn how to teach in the dynamic, flowing Hatha yoga style.
The basic training takes place over ten weekends with 20 contact hours each and can be completed part-time. In addition, there is further input that encourages self-study and allows the topic of yoga to be deepened beyond the training content. The basic training is concluded with a sixty-minute teaching test in which the graduate can demonstrate the skills he has learned.
Part of the basic training is our detailed, lovingly designed script, which contains all the important information and content about the training and is intended to serve as a reference work and working tool for us. It is particularly important to us that we convey in-depth specialist knowledge in an understandable and clear manner and that we always interweave theory and practice.
Postgraduate training
In addition to deepening the first seven modules, our advanced training (300 hours) also includes the last three modules. We delve deeper into the history and philosophy of yoga and make more practical references for our personal everyday life. We also expand our anatomical and physiological knowledge and focus more specifically on use with different target groups. We get to know more asanas and how they can be linked and discover even more possibilities and subject areas that make a yoga class an experience. There are also further in-depth exercises on the topics of breathing, relaxation and meditation. When designing lessons, we focus more on the following target groups: children, pregnant women and seniors. We will also undertake excursions to fascia yoga, yin yoga and cyclically-oriented yoga for women. Another highlight is the practical excursion to SUP yoga.
Our main focus in deepening the basic modules is clearly on the development of the teacher's personality. This can be further developed through further exercises and the discussion of didactic methods. We are also increasingly focusing on the topic of personal development and continuing the journey to ourselves. Self-reflection and mindfulness play an important role in dealing with yourself and others. In the advanced training we have the opportunity to establish a variety of connections between the individual modules and thus have a better chance of creating a big overall picture.
Our other main focus in the advanced course is clearly on the area of ​​Ayurveda. We provide a well-founded and practical introduction to the sister science of yoga and show how the theory can be put into practice. Since for us the two are inextricably linked and both together are the key to a happy life, we manage to easily find references to everyday life and can thereby support gradual habituation. The highlight of the Ayurveda module is cooking Ayurvedic menus together.
In the advanced course we will also learn the Sanskrit alphabet and chant mantras together.
The advanced course is rounded off by the module on starting a business, in which we teach everything you need to know about a successful career start. In addition, participants have the opportunity to continue to be supervised by us after the training. Especially in the early days, it can be useful to have someone on hand who can give you feedback or support you if questions arise.
The advanced training takes place over fifteen weekends with 20 contact hours each and can be completed part-time. In addition, there is further input that encourages self-study and allows the topic of yoga to be deepened beyond the training content. The basic training is completed by a written essay and a ninety-minute teaching sample in which the graduate can demonstrate the skills he has learned.
Just like in the basic training, our script is also part of the advanced training. This is supplemented by lots of new content and other materials.
