Program

Yoga Therapy Teacher Training – Level II

Yoga therapy is the adaptation of yoga to a particular set of people – those with health problems. Although general yoga classes can often help resolve mild health problems, they may be ineffective for serious conditions. We are talking for example the coronary heart diseases, management of diabetes, hypertensive clients, obesity and all the other common disorders i.e. hormone imbalance, and sleeping disorder. Yoga therapy tailors yoga to individuals, taking into account their medical condition, constitution and life situation. Despite being specialized, yoga therapy retains the basic principles and aims of yoga. Therapy yoga is based on the holistic concept and therefore includes a balanced set of practices that calms and vitalizes the mind and body, as well acting on diseased parts.

Each class has a maximum of ten students, and this will give you the privilege to be closer to your Master and to apply yoga as therapy to clients. Devise long-term plans for the clients.
