Here is some general info about the course
This yoga teacher training program is meant for people who have benefited profoundly from yoga and have a strong commitment to the practice on and off the mat and also feel a strong urge to share this with others.
Those who wish to significantly deepen their own practice and expand their yoga horizons on all levels can join the first year for a reduced price without getting certified to teach.
The teachings in this course are rooted in ancient origins of yoga and its evolution throughout the centuries, it is also integrated with a modern evidence based approach rooted in intellectual honesty and inquiry. Prepare for learning in a non-dogmatic environment that encourages you to investigate, think for yourself, and understand the essence and context of things.
The course schedule will include weekly 2 hour sessions in Sarasvati Yoga Berlin (Day/Time TBD) and a full Sunday once a month (location will be posted soon).
There will be in total 40 weekly sessions and 10 Sundays of study and practice as well as an urban meditation retreat. You will have homework and tasks to complete between sessions, and will be expected to practice regularly on your own throughout the course.
Here are some of the topics we will cover in the first year of the program: yoga philosophy, yoga anatomy, breaking down classic yoga postures and movements, developing an effective self-practice, deepening pranayama and meditation practice, learning basic Vedic chanting and other topics related to yoga.
The second year will focus on developing teachings skills such as sequencing a class, breaking down more yoga postures and movements, giving effective instructions, yoga therapy and more. You will also be guided in taking your self-practice to the next level. This year will be more mentorship based, you will get plenty of personal feedback so that your teaching skills are developed and you are ready to offer valuable yoga classes to students. You will be asked to assist in classes and gradually build up towards teaching full and effective classes on your own.
Certification will be given at the end of the second year after completing all tasks, passing personal evaluations and practical exams.
Oren will be the main teacher of the course, there will also be guest teachers teaching other related topics. Feel free to contact the team anytime throughout the course for any question or concern.
About the approach
to yoga and Oren
The style of yoga taught in the course is - 'Breath-Centered Hatha-Vinyasa Yoga'.
Yoga is essentially a healing methodology. Every human can use some healing, whether on the level of the body or the mind. From the yoga perspective the mind and body are one and most of us hold layers of conditional patterns that are deeply ingrained and cause us discomfort, pain, or any other form of distress. These can be resolved so that we can enjoy our full potential to be a joyful, radiant, happy and peaceful.
Yoga practice should be holistic to be effective, to access different aspects of experience and guide us through a self healing process, whether through Asana (yoga postures and movements), Pranayama (yogic breathing exercises), Meditation or through changing our perception, choices and attitudes.
The underlaying concept behind the teaching in this course is that every person is different and there is no one-size-fits-all practice that works for everyone, in order for Yoga to have sustainable positive benefits it should fit the individual's unique needs and capacity. It is a non-dogmatic approach that requires teachers to fill their tool box so that they can adapt to each individual.
We will learn yoga as a practical and functional method and avoid falling into form and aesthetic traps that usually lead to ineffective or even harmful results. There will be an emphasis on how to avoid causing injury or pain and to maximize the many positive benefits that yoga has to offer.
