What is so special about the course?
The course is 200 hours, all live and in-person. The course is divided into four modules of one week, or you can choose to do the course in 23 days. The course is offered on the island of Gozo, a small island in the south of Europe with 300 days of sunshine a year. The lectures and practice are right by the sea in the village of Qbajjar, Marsalforn.
This course is a great way to deepen your knowledge, and the focus is on learning how to teach in a safe, effective, and inspiring way. You will teach a little bit every day, and you will have the possibility to teach “real” yoga clients who are part of the Yellow Rock Yoga community.
What makes this course unique is that we will be able to practice outdoors every day. You will be right by the sea, in different locations on the island, depending on the season and the day. The lectures can be outside in nature or in a cozy classroom right by the sea.
You will learn:
- Traditional and modern Hatha yoga poses with variations for every body
- Gentle flowing movements to make your sequence softer and more interesting and to support your students to work with their breath
- Alignment of the poses
- Sequencing, pacing and cueing
- Anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics: learn about the bones, muscles and organs used during yoga practice
- Breathwork, meditation, chanting, and mudras
- Chakras and Subtle Body
