OUTLINE FOR 200-HR FOUNDATION YOGA TEACHER TRAINING

Practice and Teaching

Emphasis is given on alignment and safe practice, recognizing limits, experiencing and understanding the effects of basic and classic asanas, working from simple to complex, from easy to advanced, from self-experience to teaching.
Practicing with an attitude of ahimsa

Students learn about the importance of restorative poses and how to use props for individual support. This gives the necessary foundation for the advanced RYS300 of Aspects of Yoga which emphasizes on the therapeutic benefits.

Attention is given on how to demonstrate and teach a class skillfully and safely, to stay in contact with the class, to see where an individual needs adaptation and attention, when to use of props and to adjust safely when necessary.
Further to plan and structure, sequence logically and safely, as well as understanding prerequisites for safe and more advanced practice and teaching.
Some specific aspects are being addressed, like how to adapt when teaching elderly or to practice during menstruation, as well as when students have knee issues or shoulder problems etc.

Anatomy & Physiology

Musculoskeletal System: Function of key muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints etc in context with applied yoga practice.
Bodily systems

How to implement anatomical and physiological knowledge into practice: stimulating or calming the digestive system, balancing the endocrine and vegetative nervous system.

Ethics for Yoga Teachers / Philosophy / Life style

Philosophical topics and ethical life style are taught in a pragmatic way so that the students can refer to them on a personal level and implement it their daily lives.
