Maya Yoga Teacher Training
The Universe Within
The path of yoga is a journey toward the self. To embark on such a journey is a challenging yet rewarding undertaking. To put it simply; to practice yoga is to get to know oneself more intimately. The veil that lies between the conscious and the unconscious is worn thin. As the veil is worn thinner through the practice the unknown becomes known and the impossible becomes possible. The edges of our personality that we don’t see end up controlling our behavior much of the time. As we reveal and peel back the layers of the self we are less and less controlled by these edges. This is the on-going process, which leads to freedom.
Becoming a great teacher has a lot to do with how you are serving the individual in the structure of a class. Having the space to look at many individuals at once, while leading a class is a challenging undertaking. Our training programs cover the practical information needed to provide an elightening experience for your students. And yet, the heart of these trainings is in how the practice is designed to help us get to know ourselves better.
Personal practice is a yogi's place of learning. Maya Yoga trainings provide information and inspiration to support you in your individual journey into yoga. In addition, time spent in close relationship with your teachers provides invaluable insights into teacher/student relationship. Before becoming a teacher one must have a sound model of this relationship, an experience which can be rare in the manifestation of yoga in the west.
Please take advantage of the opportunity to build a teacher/student relationship. These trainings are open to all who wish to deepen their relationship with yoga, regardless of teaching experience. We also welcome those who participate without any intentions of teaching.
