Lead a monthly discussion group and help your students understand the deeper experiences that they are already having. Inspire them to recognize their yoga experiences and carry them into their life. Facilitate their sharing of their breakthroughs with each other and with you, while you build your yoga community. The relationships they build in your yoga philosophy discussion group will motivate their continuing commitment to classes and deepen their understanding of yoga's application in their life.

Begin teaching the profound principles of yoga philosophy to your students with this foundational training. This is the first course of the new training track that will certify you to teach sutras and yoga philosophy. In this telephone course, you take the first step toward teaching yoga philosophy - learning to listen and lead your students through meaningful dialogue. You will lead thought-provoking sessions using Swami Nirmalananda (Rama)'s theme articles as the jumping-off point.

Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) trains you to prepare your program, to moderate the group discussion, to handle controversy, and to integrate your student's understanding. You will be able to answer challenging questions with confidence as well as offer solutions that redirect students' questions inward, encouraging the practice of self-inquiry as part of their continuing yoga experience. This course is TYS #1.

Note: This course is a prerequisite for the other courses in our new training track: Teaching Yoga Sutras.

Prerequisite: Successful completion of Level 2, current on Continuing Ed requirements, SATYA member.

Members Tuition: $250; plus you are responsible for your own long distance phone charges. Must enroll at least 3 days prior to the first call.
