Yoga Teacher Training course (RYT200)
Shades of Yoga holds firm in the belief that it’s only when we have developed a true understanding of the potent effects of the practice of yoga on the body, mind and spirit, that we can then effectively share these practices with others.
Until we have cultivated an understanding of the inner self, we are not equipped to be a catalyst in the transformation of our students.
Shades of Yoga offers a comprehensive practical training program in how to teach yoga. This course is suitable for experienced practitioners who would like to teach yoga in the future and also those who would simply like to deepen their yoga practice.

Included in this course is a mixture of Hatha yoga where we incorporate styles such as Iyengar and Ashtanga. We will learn how to combine a variety of postures (asana) into a Vinyasa flow, with specific focus on principles of alignment.
This course is conducted at various global destinations.
LEVEL 1 – Introduction to Yoga teaching
200hour (RYT) international accredited course (Full time)
Yoga Alliance accredited and internationally endorsed.
Completion of a Yoga Alliance ( LINK to www.yogaalliance.com ) Accredited training program gives you an internationally endorsed and recognized Yoga Teacher qualification.
The theoretical component of the course includes yoga philosophy and the completion of assignments to be submitted for final certification.
The student will be required to follow a Sattvic diet with emphasis on healthy eating for a yogic lifestyle. Experienced students may find that the training offered on the course will stand them in good stead to begin teaching yoga classes.
Less experienced students will gain a deeper insight allowing them the opportunity to broaden their knowledge and build the foundation towards the teaching of yoga.
Self Enquiry
The challenging nature of our training offers the opportunity for optimum growth and transformation. On this course, it is very important that a process of self-inquiry is initiated and students understand the essence of yoga beyond the techniques.
The objective of self inquiry is to encourage awareness of how the tools and techniques of yoga can bring about inner transformation. This process of positive change is not always comfortable, yet always extremely rewarding.
Shades of Yoga facilitates a holistic understanding of the physical practice of yoga as well as integration of yogic philosophy and lifestyle in order for our teacher trainers to confidently share and guide others on their yoga journey.
