Teacher training in yoga
BOOK HERE for Ruth White Teacher training

It is a practical course, which enables students to learn how to correct and adjust physically and to practise the art of teaching. There is an emphasis placed on Pranayama, meditation and philosophy, allowing qualified teachers to complete the course with a good grounding of the 8 limbs of yoga.

The course is intended to wake up mind body and lift the spirit. As the knowledge from our observation begins to flow, sharing this first hand knowledge with others when teaching is a natural and most enjoyable progression.

Here is the training program and syllabus outline for the yoga teaching diploma certificate, certified by the Yoga Alliance, an internationally acknowledged certificate. Each candidate has an attendance card, which they present at their assessment at the end of each module/term. The complete course consists of 6 modules, which may be completed, in not less than two years but no more than four.

To complete a module students need to have attended:
1. The weekly teacher training class for one term
2. A second weekly class, at the yoga centre, or their local class
3. 3 days of residentials or yoga days for each of the modules 1-3
4. 5 days of residentials or yoga days for each of the modules 4-6
5. A term of philosophy classes
6. A certified first aid course (these are usually run on the residentials or on yoga days)

Simon Low Yoga Academy Course Director

Simon Low is a registered teacher (RYT 500) with the Yoga Alliance & director of The Yoga Academy.Simon Low

Simon, founder & director of The Yoga Academy & co-founder of triyoga, in London’s Primrose Hill, has been teaching yoga internationally for 15 years. Simon’s teaching reflects his training and ongoing studies with international teachers in many forms of Hatha and Classical yoga. After originally completing and becoming certified in Teacher Training and Advanced Yoga Therapy with Dr. Larry Payne at Samata International in Los Angeles, California, Simon has developed a unique and personal teaching style. While the classical teachings of Sri T Krishnamacharya and his primary students inform the foundations of Simon’s ‘yin and yang’ style yoga experience, his own teachings are augmented by a keen interest in Okido Yoga, and a wide and varied journey through many other systems and schools of Hatha Yoga, bodywork, psychology and disciplines such as The Alexander Technique, Pilates, and Chi Kung.

While keeping classes and study educational, diverse, focused and fun, Simon encourages the individual to remain mindfully focused toward internal exploration as a guide to experiencing yoga as it is meant to be practiced – a personal journey toward freedom, clarity, centeredness and the revealing and nurturing of the True Self-your Essence.
