There are no prerequisites for this course, and you need not be a yoga expert before registering. What we do ask is that you have at least some level of practice under your belt so you are familiar with basic postures and the flow of a vinyasa class, but you are also right at home if you are more advanced at yoga or have already taken a training. Much of what you find here fills in the gaps as it is comprehensive and designed to provide you with what you need to know to become an extraordinary teacher. It is also essential that you have a webcam, camcorder or video capability on your smartphone as well as a decent internet connection to access the course materials. Proficiency with English is recommended, as all instruction is given in English.
For the 200 hour course, we recommend completing the course in 3-4 months, but you have 6 months to complete your course material online with fully assisted mentor support & feedback (the 500 hour program gives you 12 months to complete with mentor guidance). Within that time, you can review the lectures, materials, interact with mentors, connect with other students and continue your knowledge as you progress through the course. After the certification process is complete, you have access to all the course content in a special section of our training site where you can review materials, connect with other graduates and further your education.
Upon successful completion of The Kaivalya Yoga Method Teacher Training at the 200, 300 or 500 hour levels, you are certified in The Kaivalya Yoga Method. We have a dedicated and searchable website for our certified teachers which feature your bio, teaching schedule, and contact information so the world can see that you’ve met our rigorous testing standards and demonstrated your ability to lead stellar classes for a wide variety of students.
This online program far exceeds the common standards of a 500 hour teacher training. Here’s how:
• Personalized guidance, review, and feedback of coursework and assignments
• Rigorous testing standards including video uploads of various teaching techniques (sequencing, adjusting, anatomy, cueing, dharma talks, meditation, chanting, etc.)
• ALL educators are 500++ hours trained in The Kaivalya Yoga Method and complementary techniques
• Classes, training and educators available around the clock, and for consult and review as many times as necessary
• Extensive body of knowledge covering all aspects of yoga & teaching technique that is viewable again and again at your convenience including:
• 100+ hours of training in anatomy for yoga: essential knowledge for all teachers
• Safe and effective hands-on adjustments techniques
• Principles of bhakti (devotional) yoga, chanting and mantra
• Thorough sequencing skills based on body mechanics and subtle body principles
• Feedback and review of your teaching practice throughout the course
• Business skills and insights into how to land jobs, market, start teaching and tailor instruction to various student demographics such as beginners and prenatal clientele
• Training in how to translate ancient practices including sacred texts, yogic mythology and philosophy to a modern audience
These are unique features that we are able to bring you given the online format of this program–a format that allows us to make teacher training available to those who would otherwise not be able to attend one–and does so without sacrificing the depth, breadth, and experience that immersing yourself in yoga offers. This course is Alanna’s previously-offered 200 and 300 hour live trainings….now offered online with expanded teachings, enhanced personal connection and feedback. It includes far more content than is ever possible in a live training format.
Courses in this program are done both on your own and interactively. You review the video and text content on your own schedule and at your own pace, and are required to complete video and written assignments, plus online testing as you move through the coursework. Our mentors review and grade each assignment and provide thorough and individualized feedback. You can also freely interact with the mentors, Alanna, and other students currently in the program throughout your coursework via the online campus community, which features regularly scheduled classes, workshops, and webinars. We are also available for support via email and chat.
This is a fully supported experience as our elite mentors work with you every step of the way toward your successful graduation.
