The Yoga Awareness 1000 HOUR YOGA THERAPIST trainings are for students whose dharma (life purpose) is to teach Yoga and Ayurveda. This Training is comprehensive and rich, offering a unique way of integrating the profound and precious Eastern teachings, then applying them in the context of our modern Western lifestyles.
The 500 hour Yoga Teacher training is a total of 15 months, comprising of 8 weeks (MAUI) and 12 months (HOME).
Modules 1 - 4: (MAUI) The training is at the Yoga Awareness studio in Makawao, Maui. During the first 2 weeks the training focuses on Samadhi Level 4, which is to understand the five aspect of our mind, the logical framework for the mind to function, then beyond this framework and to develop daily rituals (practice) to strengthen the capacity of our mind. We study and practice Samadhi, from the first chapter of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The purpose of Yoga is to develop our mental capacity, as TKV.Desikachar said "Yoga is a healthy body and stable mind". It is then followed by a 1 week Yoga Therapist Internship to develop your professional skills as a Yoga Therapist. (HOME) On completion of the 3 week Maui training you will then be required to complete a study at home for 4 months and submit reports each week on (1) your daily personal practice and (2) your therapist internship practice.
Modules 5 - 8: (MAUI) The training is at the Yoga Awareness studio in Makawao, Maui. During the first 2 weeks the training focuses on Samadhi Level 5. It is then followed by a 1 week Yoga Teacher Internship to develop your professional skills as a Yoga Teacher. (HOME) On completion of the 3 week Maui training you will then be required to complete a study at home for 4 months and submit reports each week on (1) your daily personal practice and (2) your therapist internship practice.
Modules 9 - 12: (MAUI) The training is at the Yoga Awareness studio in Makawao, Maui. During the first 2 weeks the training focuses on Samadhi Level 6. It is then followed by a 1 week Yoga Teacher Internship to develop your professional skills as a Yoga Teacher.
