    Aim of the Course

     

    The aim of the VIYETT Advanced Diploma of Yoga Teaching is to educate and train individuals seeking a career as a professional yoga teacher. During the course of study trainees will be guided through the basic foundations of a yoga practice to the more advanced practices of yoga which will assist in developing their own personal practice and also equip the trainee teacher with all of the necessary skills to teach yoga in a professional and confident manner to a diverse range of people in the community.

     

    Trainees will explore a variety of topics and techniques that are common to the practice of yoga and by the end of the course the trainee will have developed all of the necessary skills to plan, develop and conduct a number of different classes and workshops that may be presented to the general public.

    On completion of the course graduates will have attained a high level of competency in all aspects of yoga teaching and philosophy based on in- depth experience and understanding of the meaning and processes that constitute the practice of yoga.
     
    All of the teachings at VIYETT are based on the classical Raja Yoga System and the Eight Limbs of Yoga. During the course of study students will extensively explore the rich history, philosophy and culture of the yogic tradition in order to gain a broader understanding of the traditions of yoga in modern day life.
