Advanced Teacher Training and Immersion Course at Yogasara

This course will run for just over two years, beginning in July 2010, and will be led by Chris Gladwell.

We will meet approximately one full weekend per month with two one week retreats at the beginning and middle of the course and a one month retreat, possibly in India, at the end of the course.

There will be a maximum of 24 students supervised by four main tutors, with occasional guest tutors enhancing already excellent teacher-student ratios.

The course is focussed on quality time for cultivation of personal practice in all the paths of yogic exploration.

Profound experience of yogic technique will be balanced with applied philosophy from Yoga, Buddhism, Taoism and contemporary sources such as Ken Wilber.

All aspects of practice are taught including hands-on adjustment, yogic dance and integrating yoga for pregnancy into classes as well as there being plenty of practice space to cultivate your teaching skills.

More than 1000 contact hours and a total of 4000 hours of personal study and practice mean this immersion will take you deep.

The average yoga teacher working in Britain has only done around 200-500 hours of training: this immersion course offers an immensely richer and more rewarding journey to true yogic mastery.
