Teaching Authenticity in Action

The 200 hour non-residential Modular Dynamic Yoga Teacher Training is based on the inherent unity of body, mind and spirit. It focusses on the pivotal role of the body in accessing this unity. Its teaching methodology rests entirely on organic principles of structural and mechanical integrity. This Yoga Teacher Training has been developed to access the spiritual depths of human potential directly from the body itself. It presents a complete methodology of body mind and spirit that allows yoga to be taught with an integrity that reveals and expresses the depths of yoga directly from action and experience. Included in the course price are over 50 hours of audio presentations of teaching yoga dynamically.

The Dynamic Yoga Teacher Training programme has been developed over 20 years by Godfrey Devereux, author of Dynamic Yoga, Elements of Yoga, Hathayoga Breath by Breath, 15 Minute Yoga. The Little Book of the Bandhas, Yogavidya and Dynamic Yoga Cds and Videos. You will learn to teach postures, breathing and meditation from the inherent functional principles of the bodimind. You will be trained to teach from sound and proven principles of learning and teaching that make yoga really work.

Dynamic Yoga Teacher Training is in two parts. The Foundation Course provides a grounding in the basic practices and theory of the yoga method and explores in depth 65 yoga postures and 55 dynamic postural techniques (namaskar, vinyasa, ulola), 7 breathing techniques, 7 meditation techniques,and the seven bandhas that are the heart of yoga posture practice.  It focusses especially on the use of movement as a sensitising and awakening preparation for the integrating power of stillness. This is also open to anyone ready to deepen their understanding of the simplicity and effectiveness of the yoga method without learning how to teach and not wishing to attend the  Weekend Intensives.

The Weekend Intensives explore the presentation of five Dynamic Yoga Teaching series. They utilise over 150 yoga postures which will be explored in depth in groups that reveal their inherent inter-relationships and intirisnic unities while clarifying their underlying structural, mechanical and energetic principles. This exploration is made from the perspective of teaching , and includes the arts of adjustment and modification. You will learn to teach the Dynamic Yoga Practice Series in a scientific, methodical manner through progressive instruction that utilises the natural functioning of the bodimind.

The Dynamic Yoga Practice Series are unique in power and effectiveness. This power is based on a profound understanding of the principles of movement and action inherent to the bodimind. Postures in each series, and the series themselves, are sequenced to progressively establish integrity, stability and freedom in the body, as the means to awakening the inherent integrity of body mind and spirit.
