What is the essence of Yoga
“Yoga is the practice of quieting the mind” - Patanjali
This beautiful saying encapsulates what yoga is about. It is a complete science- the individual is addressed as a harmonious union of the mind, body and the soul. The asanas, pranayams and meditation techniques work together in bringing about equilibrium of the body and the mind, paving the way for spiritual awakening
The SOHYAA advantage
One of the best places to do a yoga instructor training course is from SOHYAA Goa, (School of Holistic yoga and Ayurveda). The residential courses are extremely well structured offering various options - Hatha yoga, Kundalini yoga, Yoga therapy, and Pre-& post-natal yoga teachers training courses. Each of these is a 200 hour hatha yoga teacher training, except the Pre & post natal course which is an 85hrs course.
The courses are designed to ensure a solid foundation in the physical techniques, meditative practices and the spiritual aspect of yoga philosophy. The learners are equipped with crucial teaching techniques along with extensive practical sessions to build confidence to conduct classes on their own.
The SOHYAA Yoga Alliance Teachers Training Courses ensure quality standards which are unmatched by most other institutes. Class sizes are not more than 6 which allow for intensive sessions and individual attention. Strict discipline, a rigorous schedule, ashram settings and extremely experienced and skilled teachers add up to a valuable experience. The beautiful setting of SOHYAA is an added attraction- the unspoilt beaches of Goa, provide the perfect setting for a life transformational experience!
