Swami Vishnu-devananda was the first in the West to develop a training program for yoga teachers. He did this not
only with the vision to develop yoga professionals, but also to give sincere aspirants the skills of personal discipline
and to develop messengers of peace. The Course is a profound, personal experience, based on the ancient gurukula
teaching system, integrating the student's daily life into the yoga training. By the end of the intensive four-week
course the student will possess a firm foundation for teaching others, in addition to strengthening his or her own yoga
practice with self-discipline and awareness of the nature of body, mind and spirit. Upon graduation from the course,
students receive a certificate of qualification. The program has seen the graduation of more than eleven thousand
students over the last thirty years. Men and women come from all around the world take part in the training, which is
given in English with simultaneous translation into European languages, as well as Hebrew, Japanese, Hindi, Tamil
and Malayalam.
we developed a program that teaches you everything you need to know to teach yoga AND run a successful yoga
business - and you can learn it from home, at your own pace.
I call it the "Yoga Teacher Training Camp" for Home Study Yoga Teacher Certification.
And with the praise I've received for the original camp-in-a-box, I've been inspired to create a full collection of home
study courses for popular and important Yoga Teacher specialities, such as Restorative Yoga Teacher, Kid's Yoga
Teacher, Chair Yoga Teacher, Pre-natal & Post-natal Yoga Teacher, Yoga Teacher Trainer (level II), Vinyasa Yoga,
Meditation Teacher, Yoga Anatomy and more.
Equally important, I've developed courses and tools to help Yoga Teachers run successful Yoga Teacher businesses.
After all, it's one thing to devote yourself to doing what you love (Yoga), but it's quite another to be able to support
yourself comfortably and securely while doing it. You won't learn these skills at a typical Yoga Teacher Camp.
Whether you're an experienced Yoga Teacher needing to re-certify or a beginner looking to become a yoga teacher -
you've come to the right place. Our Free Yoga Teacher Community will help you find what you're looking for.

extraordinary value of these courses.

Yoga (Sanskrit, Pali: yóga) refers to traditional physical and mental disciplines originating in India. The word is
associated with meditative practices in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. In Hinduism, it also refers to one of the six
orthodox (astika) schools of Hindu philosophy, and to the goal toward which that school directs its practices. In
Jainism it refers to the sum total of all activities—mental, verbal and physical.
Major branches of yoga in Hindu philosophy include Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Hatha
Yoga. Raja Yoga, compiled in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and known simply as yoga in the context of Hindu
philosophy, is part of the Samkhya tradition.[10] Many other Hindu texts discuss aspects of yoga, including
Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the Shiva Samhita and various Tantras.
The Sanskrit word yoga has many meanings, and is derived from the Sanskrit root "yuj," meaning "to control," "to
yoke" or "to unite."[12] Translations include "joining," "uniting," "union," "conjunction," and "means." Outside India,
the term yoga is typically associated with Hatha Yoga and its asanas (postures) or as a form of exercise. Someone who
practices yoga or follows the yoga philosophy is called a yogi or yogini

Ayurveda is a holistic healing science which comprises of two words, Ayu and Veda. Ayu means life and Veda means
knowledge or science. So the literal meaning of the word Ayurveda is the science of life. Ayurveda is a science
dealing not only with treatment of some diseases but is a complete way of life. Read More
"Ayurveda treats not just the ailment but the whole person and emphasizes prevention of disease to avoid the need for
cure."
Ayurvedic Medicine has become an increasingly accepted alternative medical treatment in America during the last
two decades.
Benefits of Ayurvedic Medicines
* By using ayurvedic and herbal medicines you ensure physical and mental health without side effects. The natural
ingredients of herbs help bring “arogya” to human body and mind. ("Arogya" means free from diseases). The
chemicals used in preparing allopathy medicines have impact on mind as well. One should have allopathy
medicine only when it is very necessary.
* According to the original texts, the goal of Ayurveda is prevention as well as promotion of the body’s own
capacity for maintenance and balance.
* Ayurvedic treatment is non-invasive and non-toxic, so it can be used safely as an alternative therapy or alongside
conventional therapies.
* Ayurvedic physicians claim that their methods can also help stress-related, metabolic, and chronic conditions.
* Ayurveda has been used to treat acne, allergies, asthma, anxiety, arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, colds,
colitis, constipation, depression, diabetes, flu, heart disease, hypertension, immune problems, inflammation,
insomnia, nervous disorders, obesity, skin problems, and ulcers.
Ayurvedic Terms Explained
Dosha: In Ayurvedic philosophy, the five elements combine in pairs to form three dynamic forces or interactions
called doshas. It is also known as the governing principles as every living things in nature is characterized by the
dosha.
Ayurvedic Facial: Purportedly, a "therapeutic skin care experience" that involves the use of "dosha-specific" products
and a facial massage focusing on "marma points."
Ayurvedic Nutrition (Ayurvedic Diet): Nutritional phase of Ayurveda. It involves eating according to (a) one's "body
type" and (b) the "season." The alleged activity of the doshas--three "bodily humors," "dynamic forces," or "spirits that
possess"--determines one's "body type." In Ayurveda, "body types" number seven, eight, or ten, and "seasons"
traditionally number six. Each two-month season corresponds to a dosha; for example, the two seasons that
correspond to the dosha named "Pitta" (see "Raktamoksha") constitute the period of mid-March through mid-July. But
some proponents enumerate three seasons: summer (when pitta predominates), autumn, and winter (the season of
kapha); or Vata season (fall and winter), Kapha season (spring), and Pitta season (summer). According to Ayurvedic
theory, one should lessen one's intake of foods that increase ("aggravate") the ascendant dosha.
