ONLINE AYURVEDA COURSE FOR YOGA TEACHERS AND YOGA THERAPISTS

"Krishnamacharya was a physician, with all the necessary degrees and training in Ayurvedic medicine. He possessed enormous knowledge of nutrition, herbal medicine, the use of oils and other remedies. All of his studies too, were brought to his work as a healer, including law, history, logic, religion, astrology and so forth. My father was also well aware that his skills as a healer were mainly what attracted people to his teachings about Yoga, beginning with the Maharaja of Mysore. After arriving in Chennai, it was a healer that most people sought Krishnamacharya out- many sent by physicians. Regardless of how sick they were or what manner of treatment he might prescribe, none were patients. They were always students meeting with their teacher."- T.K.V. Desikachar, "Health, Healing & Beyond"

This online course offers the basic knowledge of Ayurveda and how it can be applied in Yoga Classes and Yoga Therapy.

COMPREHENSIVE YOGA THERAPY TRAINING IN THE TRADITION OF T. KRISHNAMACHARYA AND T.K.V. DESIKACHAR

Often when people hear the term "Yoga Therapy" they think of cures for physical ailments. And they put Yoga Therapy in the same box as physiotherapy or other movement based therapeutic approaches. But Yoga therapy in the tradition of T. Krishnamacharya and T.K.V. Desikachar is much more than that. It is one of the biggest legacies of T. Krishnamacharya and nothing else than a huge part of Yoga, as we all need to deal with our many "dis-eases" if we want to progress on our path of Yoga. These dis-eases can occur in the emotional, physical, psychological or spiritual dimension. So someone might come to Yoga Therapy because he wants to work on his fears or insecurities. Someone else might come to get rid of Insomnia and someone else might need something that helps him balance his stressful work life.

In order to address people's needs in different areas, Yoga Therapists in the tradition of T. Krishnamacharya and T.K.V. Desikachar undergo an in-depth training program that spreads over three years and turns people into versatile healers and teachers. It includes a project, a practicum, observation, basic knowledge in Ayurveda and Psychology and much more.

The next of these Indepth Yoga Therapy Training Programs will be offered in Europe commencing in 2016. It will be conducted in English and translated into French.
