Our Advanced Yoga Teacher Training Course is unique to Himalaya Yoga Valley in its concept. Along with advanced asana and lectures with Lalit and our teaching team, our trainees also develop a body of knowledge around a specialised area of yoga that they are interested in, and collaborate with their fellow students to share these ideas.
Our trainees delve into their chosen area and build up a body of knowledge, becoming fully informed and taking this knowledge into their teaching and practice. Examples of previous trainee areas of specialisation are Yoga for Anxiety and Panic Attacks, Yoga for Children with Autism, Yoga for PTSD, Yoga and Ayurveda for Psychosomatic Disorders and many more areas trainees are passionate about.
Our Level I Yoga Teacher Training Practice Sequence is founded in the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series, a dynamic and flowing style of yoga that builds strength, flexibility and focus.
To compliment the Ashtanga style we also teach the fundamentals of Iyengar yoga, particularly focusing on precise alignment in poses, and the use of props and modifications to make the practice safe and accessible for all levels.
Our school director Yogacharya Lalit is a student of a long tradition of yoga from a direct line of Himalayan Masters. Lalit studied under his master Swami Veda Bhati and Grandmaster Swami Rama, who founded the famous Himalayan Institute, and on our Yoga Teacher Training you will learn meditation and philosophy in alignment with this ancient lineage.
