Our current teacher training course started in February 2010 and extends over a two year period of formal training. Our next teacher training course will begin in July 2012.
The course is taught by Marina Jung, our senior teacher, who has more than 2o years of yoga teaching experience. Please contact the studio if you would still like to join.
Becoming an Iyengar Yoga Teacher is an enjoyable, rewarding and ultimately transformational experience. Like anything worthwhile in life, the training requires hardwork and discipline. CHYS has been running TT programmes for over 10 years, and many of Melbourne’s best-known yoga teachers completed their training here. We have a long history of successfully getting people through the certification examination.
The course instills a strong discipline for indepedent practice, gives an overall understanding of teaching asana and pranayama in accordance with the method developed by BKS Iyengar, and introduces the study of human anatomy and yoga philosophy. The program prepares students for the BKS Iyengar Yoga Association of Australia certificate examination. More details of the assessment are available to download on the BKS Iyengar Yoga Association website.
Dedicating more time to the pursuit of yoga and teaching yoga, is an endless process that will start with the first two years of this course, and should then continue to grow over your lifetime.
