Yoga Shala at Artjuna

Yoga Shala at Artjuna is very important because there are many courses given by people who just haven't practiced an authentic form of yoga or who haven't practiced for very long. Beware of yoga teacher trainings which aim to teach a variety of different yoga styles. These are invariable superficial, and you don't get much depth with studying any one of these types. What you are getting in this training is an immersion in BKS Iyengar Yoga, one of the most respected yoga traditions in the world. If you want to be a yoga teacher who wants to be able to work with a wide variety of yoga students, the study of this form of yoga is invaluable. Many senior teachers of other traditions have extensively studied Iyengar Yoga and use it in their courses and personal yoga practice. What is Special about this Goa Teacher Training & In-Depth Studies Course is that you are receiving training in Iyengar Yoga. Iyengar Yoga is known for many things: Precision & Alignment in how Yoga Poses are practiced and taught; a methodical approach to learning how to practice; emphasis on intelligent sequencing, staying in poses rather than touching them superficially, using props to make the yoga more accessible, and more. You will be taking from an experienced yoga teacher trainer who has studied with The Iyengar's regularly for over 37 years! It's been 9 years since Richard gave an immersion 200 HR Yoga Teacher Training in Goa India and this years training will be a huge step up from having the training in a platform yoga studio to a Fully Equipped Spacious Iyengar Yoga Studio in Anjuna! Primitive platform yoga studios without proper walls are common in Goa and we waited many years in which to have a course with the proper studio in which to hold our classes. Yoga Shala at Artjuna has Wall Mounted Ropes, Chairs, Bolsters, a Backbending Bench, Halsana Stools, Non Skid Mats, Blankets, Straps, and much more in which to properly practice Iyengar Yoga.
