The primary focus of this course will be on the Ashtanga Yoga Primary series, including effective teaching methodology, alignment and adjustments. There will be time spent on how to modify poses and practices for students of all abilities, and you will be taught how to construct an effective and progressive Beginners course. While Ashtanga will be the primary basis for learning, because a high percentage of Ashtanga TT graduates do not go on to teach ‘pure’ Ashtanga, there will also be instruction in structured and progressive class sequencing, including how to use a ‘Yin & Yang’ approach, allowing you to create your own unique class plans.

Following completion of this training course you will be able to confidently teach group and private yoga classes, in Ashtanga, both Led and Mysore style, as well as being able to intelligently craft your own class sequences. You will also be able to move confidently from teacher training and into teaching, having the knowledge, skills, and support, to kick start your teaching career.

This course covers all of the content of a group 200 hour training - personal practice, teaching methodology and practice, anatomy, business and marketing, and history and philosophy. The advantage lies in the individual attention and hands on experience! Your 200 hours will be made up of 50 hours assisting me in my Saturday morning classes in Lymington, gaining real world adjusting skills on real students, as well as 50 hours of self guided study, and 100 hours of private tuition (hybrid of in person and online to suit you) including asana and pranayama practice, teaching practice, and bespoke to you guidance and mentoring in any other necessary areas.
