FORMAT
Yogic Studies courses begin with two weeks of on-site immersion, during which you take classes from 6am to 6pm (Level 1) or 5:30am to 6pm. Simple, nutritious breakfasts and lunches are provided. You may take the two weeks consecutively, at a discounted price, or take each week separately over two different intensives. The immersions are followed by Home Study.
Teacher Trainings start with two-week intensives, during which you take and teach classes for about 12 hours a day. These weeks must be taken at the same time. Breakfasts and lunches are provided.
ON-SITE CLASS DATES
All classes are held at the Atma Center or at its nearby residential facility.
HOME STUDY
Each course has a home study portion to consolidate the knowledge gained during the on-site classes. For Yogic Studies, this portion includes a home yoga practice, reading and quizzes, and short assignments. For Teacher Training, home study incorporates student teaching under the close guidance of a mentor and assignments related to becoming a professional instructor such as course planning, developing a marketing strategy, and student support skills.
OPTION TO AUDIT YS 1 MODULES
You may choose to attend the immersions without completing the home study. The cost is half that of the regular course.
ENROLLMENT DEADLINE AND DISCOUNTS
