Yoga teacher training

I’m thinking of taking a regular hatha yoga teacher training course over a period of 18 months. However, I am not sure, since those teachings and practices (probably asanas, mudras, pranayama,…) might add up to an overload situation combined with AYP. What do you think?

I thank you, Deer. :heart:
The teacher training I have in mind is in the city I live, in-person instructions. I would love to attend an AYP program one day. However, Thailand is quite a distance from Germany and with kids, a course distributed over 1.5 years is more manageable than several weeks in a row.
Does the AYP teacher training go beyond Yogani’s lessons and books?

Hi Cato,
The focus for the AYP Teacher Training Course is on the content of the AYP lessons. So, we focus mostly on Deep Meditation practice, Spinal Breathing Pranayama, Samyama and the mudras and bandhas. There are two asana classes each day where we do include more asanas than are described in the lesson. Around 40 asanas in total plus variations. In addition to that there are classes on the history of yoga which is not included in Yogani?s lessons and books. We also give classes on how to teach AYP, both in terms of how to set up and run different classes in different situations and for different groups of students and also how to teach online and how to run retreats.
This year the course will be in-person in Thailand and also online, with the classes being live-streamed and recorded.

There is a different daily class schedule for people taking the course in-person and people taking it online.

Thanks, Christi. I would very much prefer to join an in-person class. I hope I can do that one day. I’m planning to do the yoga teacher training for personal reasons as I’d like to dive deeper in the field of yoga. I’m not really planning to teach or give classes. Not yet, perhaps.
