Becoming a Yoga Instructor -
The GIFT YOU OFFER YOURSELF
by Lee Anne Forbes-Doust
"These are some of the ways of offering Yoga." It was the first day of the Yoga Instructor's Certification Course at the
I had taken Yoga classes before, and knew it was time for me to go "deeper" into my practice. I knew that I didn't want to teach Yoga, so much as to learn more, lots more.
Yoga means "
- So what is this Instructor's Certification Course and why is it different? The Instructor Certification Course is a comprehensive, compassionate, cutting-edge curriculum. It encompasses the Wisdom and structure of Classic Hatha Yoga enhanced by the philosophy of Raja Yoga.
All of these are taught in a group setting so that future instructors learn from both the teacher and one another through gentle guidance. It is a joyful course and it instills a refined sense of graceful service in future instructors.
At the end of the course, instructors graduate, excited to teach and with the knowledge that offering others Yoga is an honor and a privilege. Frequently the teachers feel that they are receiving as much as the give. Here is how some who teach at The School of Complete Yoga describe it:
The Instructor Certification Course exceeded my expectation on all levels. The instruction is professional and the curriculum offers a complete balance of all aspects of Yoga. The training course helped me to expand my personal Yoga practice and gave me the confidence to work with students of varying levels. It was a wonderful experience.
Michele C. Instructor - Beginner and Intermediate
Words cannot adequately express my gratitude for the Instructor Certification Course. This is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. The course changed my life for the better. I learned so much about myself and how Yoga is Life. It is a Lifestyle; a way to live each and every day. My life is blessed by having gone through this experience. I also have the grace of being able to teach classes for children and adults, to share the meaning of Yoga so everyone's life can be better. What a gift!
Miriam B. Instructor, Beginner and Children's Yoga
By the end of the course, I no longer smiled at the phrase "offering Yoga." Instead, I nodded in silent agreement, understanding on a much deeper level, what that phrase really meant.
