Course

Yoga teaches you how to adopt the discipline of the mind, the body and the emotions. Nowadays it is very difficult to balance the mind, the body and the emotions, especially in the big cities around the world. While you travel you may check the culture, emotions, people, religions, even various styles of yoga schools, all countries are different. So not easy at all to manage the mind without yoga. Through Ashtanga yoga in Rishikesh they will teach in the lineage.

The Ashtanga yoga teacher training course in Rishikesh, India, is not about physical fitness but rather to learn how to cultivate fitness of the mind and emotions, which is Super yoga. To many people around the world, yoga means physical exercise, Tantra means sexual pleasure and Ayurveda means simple oil massage. Maybe it has its own values but they have lost the soul essence of yoga, which is a combination of 8 limbs such as yama, niyama, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, samadhi.

Today around the world yoga lovers practice asanas without yama and niyama.

Yoga means self introspection, self analysis, Atman Chintan and self enquiry. Yoga is not about beach party life with gatherings.

So you are very welcome to join and practice Ashtanga yoga and discover the true essence of yoga.

Ashtanga yoga is all about mastering the mind, the emotions, the passions and discovering more about psychic channels.

Being master of the mind is yoga. Management of the mind is yoga. Not about control the mind or suppress the mind is yoga. Yoga all about how to develop awareness of the mind, so that you can manage the mind in the right path.

Karma yoga is a vital part of the course in order to express inner emotions into positive actions, which is an essential for the management of the daily life in the lineage.
