STAMBHA Yoga School

200-Hour Yoga Teacher training

The 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training consists of two halves. We call the first 100-Hour of the training as Yoga Immersion (consists of 3 modules) and the second 100-Hour as the Teacher Training (consists of 3 modules). The complete 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training consists of 6 modules.

This is a Yoga Alliance 200hour Registered Yoga Teacher Training.

STAMBHA Yoga School is a Registered Yoga School (RYS®) with Yoga Alliance at 200hr level.

The Yoga Immersion (100hr) is designed to introduce a student to the vast disciplines of yoga; it is an in-depth study of yoga for all levels of student. Yoga is like a path that leads a student through the many lakes of peace, mountains of challenge and winds of change. How does the Immersion help a person navigate life’s pathways with skill, openness of mind and lead them towards happiness? The Immersion sets the basic premise that we are the goal, yoga practices lead us back to the beginning, our essential essence. Why take the Immersion? To learn the practices of yoga and how challenges are the rays of light which open our hearts and minds to the deepest part of ourself.

The Immersion is for anyone who wants to learn about yoga. The Immersion can be taken separately without signing in for the Teacher Training. In the immersion students learn:

  • Yoga postures (asanas) that increase your physical strength and flexibility.

  • How to align your body optimally to relieve pain and increase overall health.

  • Breathing techniques (pranayama) that restore health, increase energy and decrease stress.

  • Meditation techniques that calm the mind and focus the mind while simultaneously learning and understanding the nature of the mind.

  • Learn how yoga philosophy central with Hindu Shaiva Tantra and also covering Patanjali’s Classical yoga to Advaita Vedanta to Bhagavad Gita help us understand life’s pathways.

  • You will meet wonderful people who share similar goals in life and make friends for life.

  • To guarantee the highest quality and level of learning, there are limited number of slots. We currently limit the slots to 18 students.

Students receive a document of completion after completing the 100 hours of immersions.

Each student who completes the 100-hour Yoga Immersion can continue to learn and apply the life-embracing philosophy and knowledge of STAMBHA Yoga that we learn in the Immersion into teaching yoga. The second 100-hour of the training focuses on teaching and refinement of knowledge. 
 
The 100-Hour Teacher Training uses the information, practices and community from the Immersion, to develop a safe and effective atmosphere for beginning teachers. All 3 parts of the Immersion are a pre-requisite for the Teacher Training. In the Teacher Training students are guided step by step through the complexities of teaching yoga. There are 3 parts to the Teacher Training. Students progressively learn:

  • How to use simple movement language to instruct students into and out of asanas.

  • How to teach the optimal flow and alignment for the physical body.

  • Learn the therapeutic application of the alignment principles for injuries.

  • Students deepen their own practice of asana, pranayama, meditation and anatomy.

  • Students develop trust with other students allowing for less fear and anxiety combined with loving support so all students are able to bring out their own natural gifts.

  • Students teach everyday segments of a full class, constructing a class and by the end of the training students are fully confident teachers.

Expect a high level of training, teacher trainees begin a progressive, clearly organized, and empowering process to begin teaching yoga to anyone.
