Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training

June 20-July 16

Register for this program

We are honored to teach a comprehensive system of Yoga that has endured for thousands of years. Through the teachings of Baba Hari Dass, the practices of Ashtanga (eight-limbed) Yoga have been preserved as expounded by the sages of old, with all their vital relevance to daily life today.

This program is for those who are or wish to be yoga teachers, as well as for any conscientious student who wishes to expand and deepen his or her knowledge, experience, and practice of Yoga.

The course will include in-depth instruction in the theory and methods of Ashtanga and Hatha Yoga, including Shat Karma (bodily purifications), Pranayama (breathing practices), Mudra (positions to seal and direct energy), Asana (beginning and intermediate-advanced postures), and Dhyana (meditation). There will also be classes on the Yoga Sutras, Ayurveda, anatomy for asanas, subtle (energy) body theory, and yoga psychology and philosophy. Our purpose is to present the teachings and practices which form the foundation both for one's personal practice and for teaching yoga. A certificate of completion based on attendance is awarded at the end of the program.

Mount Madonna Center is a yoga school registered with The Yoga Alliance, and this program qualifies anyone who completes it to register as an RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) at the 200-hour level.

NOTE: An additional Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training is being planned for 2008-2009 on a one-weekend-a-month basis, starting with an initial 6-day intensive August 18-24.

Tuition $1,740, plus fees. Contact the Program Office for discounts available for stays of a week or longer and for special deposit arrangements. Some scholarship aid is available through www.yogabasics.com.
