Why do I have to attend an OM yoga teacher training Immersion?

In order for us to maintain our high standards, it is important that every teacher trainee has:

A basic knowledge of OM yoga principles

A personal experience of OM yoga practice

An evolved asana practice appropriate for beginning this professional training program.

What can happen in 1 day?

The purpose of this 1-day OM yoga teacher training immersion is to give students a taste of the OM yoga Teacher Training program, which emphasizes methodology, philosophy, technique and practice equally.

During this one day immersion you will:

* Experience an OM yoga asana class which includes:

Four Surya Namaskar templates
Creative and logical sequencing
Subtle, precise hands-on work and eagle eye/verbal adjustments
Instruction of alignment principles within flow integration of Buddhist principles of mindfulness and compassion within an asana class.

* Learn about the background, mission and methodology of OM yoga and how it is manifested in each yoga class.

* Practice hands-on adjustments in groups and partners

* Lunchtime homework with a study group

* Learn how basic alignment principles reflect the essence of yoga

* Learn how to teach Ardha Surya Namaskar — and then get up and teach it that day!

* Mindfulness meditation: brief instruction and practice

The day will end with a reception where the teacher will meet for a group discussion and Q&A.

Following that, the teacher will meet with you to assess whether you are ready for the program and if the program will meet your needs.

Is this for you?

Yes, if:

* you are serious about applying for OM yoga teacher training, then the immersion is a requirement for you.

* you are curious about OM yoga teacher training and want to learn more about it.
