AM I READY FOR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING?

YOUR 200-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING CALL FOR ADVENTURE AWAITS

As an enthusiast of āsana practice, you may have come to that point where questions and introspection arise. These questions maybe of an anatomical nature, philosophical, introspective or even metaphysical.

Atha yoga anuśāsanam, ‘now your exploration of Yoga begins’. Though, how can you be sure you should pursue the next step? Here are a few guiding points to help you decide if a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is the correct direction to embark upon.

1. YOGA HAS BECOME A HUGE PART OF YOUR LIFE

You started out practicing once a week to find a little peace of mind, or fitness, now, the yoga bug has slowly crept up on you. If you don’t commit to your regular classes, something feels off.

You can’t help but enthusiastically spread the word to your friends and family. When absent from the studio, you may find yourself conducting research, or searching videos online for that bane of posture that you are having difficulty with.

Workshops have become a regular occurrence. You just want to know more!

2. YOU DON’T HAVE TO WANT TO TEACH YOGA TO DO THE TRAINING

‘I just want to deepen my knowledge and practice’ you might say. Well our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training programme caters to those who wish to teach and also for those who have begun Sādhaka, ‘to walk upon the spiritual path’.

Whether you're an aspiring student wanting to deepen your knowledge or seeking a globally recognized yoga instructor certification. The Samasthala 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training will empower you to acquire what you seek. We are light-bearers that guide you upon the destination to find ‘Ultimate Truth’.

3. I STILL CAN’T DO ALL THE POSTURES

Sri Dharma Mittra, an internationally known yoga teacher is famous for photographing himself in 1,350 asana variations to honour his guru. Gheraṇḍa Saṁhitā, is a classic text of Hatha yoga, in which Shiva taught 8,400,000 different āsanas.

Well, I don’t think you are in limited company, for not being able to perform even a small portion of these. If you are versed in the practice, willing to work hard, and have a passion for yoga and its philosophy, you may be more ready than you know.

4. YOU WISH TO SURROUND YOURSELF WITH LIKEMINDED PEOPLE

The sādhaka path is not for everyone. One of the reasons you may gravitate towards a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training, is to meet like-minded people.

The very nature of a Yoga Teacher Training, is to immerse you in all thing's yoga. Through this, strong bonds are made and lifelong friends are formed when embarking upon the call for adventure.

5. YOGA HELPED YOU OVERCOME TRAUMA

‘The year was 2013. My body lay broken, following years of mercury poising (leaky amalgam fillings) and pushing myself to the limits, through the practice of the intense martial art, Southern Mantis Kung Fu.

I lay close to bedridden and was in considerable pain. Yoga was my guide out of the darkness and into the light.’

This is my story, though I most definitely am aware, that I am not alone. You may have overcome some type of adversity that life has thrown at you, in which your local yoga studio and teachers were a godsend. Now you wish to pass this wonderful gift on.

6. YOU’RE READY FOR SOMETHING NEW

200-Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings are a call for adventure. They are also life-changing experiences.

You may feel that a shift in your life is needed. This once in a lifetime experience is often the catalyst for change.

Through intense self-connection, there is an innate attunement with self-purpose. The ultimate direction you wish to travel upon from this point on, may become a little clearer.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 200-HOUR AND 300-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING?

by Samasthala Yoga • 30 January 2023

You sit, peering intently at your laptop or technological device, scanning yoga teacher trainings websites. The thought that gestated several weeks ago, has fully manifested into action. You are going to answer that call for adventure, and book yourself onto a yoga teacher training course. Though, after appraising several homepages that showcase beaming Yogis dressed in graduational whites, proudly holding their well-earned accreditation. You are struck with a question. What is the difference between 200-Hour and a 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training? 200-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING Once you have completed a 200-Hour Yoga Alliance Yoga Teacher Training. You will be provided international accreditation. You will have immediate entitlement to use the word RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) and hold a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher certification. You then have the option to become a Yoga Alliance® member. They have certified RYTs in 130 countries and territories, around the world. A 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training, is learning dispersed over a 200-hour period. It may be that you choose an intensive all-inclusive yoga teacher training course ranging anywhere between two weeks to one month. Or something that covers many weekends over the period of several months to a year. This is all dependent upon your Modis operandi. Though the curriculum between schools can vary; a solid foundational 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training course should endow you with the skills, and knowledge to teach with a certain amount of assurance and confidence. Be aware that not all 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training courses are created equal. It is important to look at the curriculum and research if the training suits your needs and expectations. Samasthala Yoga has developed an all-inclusive 200-Hour Teacher Training programme that goes well beyond the reach of the basic 200-hour YTT. 300-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING This course is taken, upon succession of your 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training. It is classified as a secondary level of your education, and can be referred to as ‘Advanced Yoga Teacher Training’. A good 300-Hour Yoga Training programme should aim to deepen your understanding of all that is yoga. This will include fundamental asana, philosophy, ayurveda, meditation, and anatomy. It is generally required, that you complete your 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (and acquire some teaching experience) before attending a 300-Hour YTT. Upon completion of both, you can register as an RYT-500. This advanced teaching certificate indicates that you are prepared to teach yoga with a deeper set of knowledge and skills, developed through more extensive studies. The Samasthala Yoga 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is condensed into a 200-hour format, but holds the depth of something more akin to a 300-hour accreditation. Through careful planning, and some TLC, we have outlined a detailed curriculum . This it to ensure you have the edge as a yoga practitioner and teacher, upon graduation. You are welcome to view the video below to discover how this exciting venture was formed, and why.
