Zama Institute Yoga Teacher Training courses remain true to yoga in its traditional form, while offering insight into modern forms and styles of yoga. You will learn hatha yoga asana, which will provide you with the foundation to teach most modern, popular styles of yoga. This will give you the best advantage when attracting students to your teachings, and help you to gain employment. You will also learn and experience the transcendental aspects of yoga, with a focus on mindfulness and presence.
Your teachers in face to face workshops will support you through your journey and impart their years of knowledge and experience with you wholeheartedly. For online students, our support team is ready to help you – we are always here to answer any question you may have! One on one virtual mentoring sessions are also available to purchase if you find you would like additional tuition.
Zama Institute respects the ancient yogic teachings and modern Western medicine, and gives students the opportunity to learn these sciences side by side. This will help you develop a deep appreciation of their value and give you a rich understanding of how you can become the best practitioner in your field.
