Description

Teacher Training Course – Byron Bay

Experience makes the difference
Teaching yoga consists of more than simply the skills required to perform asanas correctly or knowledge of anatomy and physiology. Ultimately, the path to teaching yoga with awareness and understanding involves deepening your own practice.

Byron Yoga Centre’s 20-day Teacher Training Course in Byron is fully accredited 200 hour (Yoga Alliance) course. It includes Part A and Part B of the course in the 20 days. Part A is the 12 Day Intensive (120 hours) and the Part B is the additional 8 days (80 hours) to complete your 200 hour requirements. It is designed to deliver holistic training that encompasses the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the yogic path.
