Yoga Teacher Training Courses

WORLDWIDE ACCREDITED YOGA TEACHER TRAINING COURSES

This 200 hrs unique Hatha & Ashtanga yoga tradition course gives aspiring yoga teachers the foundation to start teaching with full accreditation in Australia and worldwide (Yoga Alliance International & Fitness Australia Approved and Recognised 15 CECs).

Ashtanga (also spelled Astanga) means "eight limbs" in Sanskrit, which refers to the eight limbs of yoga laid out in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The Ashtanga method of asana practice was interpreted by T.Krishnamacharya and Sri Pattabhi Jois, together with Iyengar, Yoga luminaries and fathers of modern Yoga.

What's the difference between Ashtanga and Hatha Yoga?

The Ashtanga and the Hatha Yoga differs in their focusing elements; Ashtanga is focused more on the balance between the breathing and the physical posture, Hatha focuses more on mediation/relaxation and physical strength of the body.

This two styles of yoga are the two most popular in the world because of their difference; however, the results achieved by both are very similar. For someone wishing to become Yoga Teacher, it is better to try out all options to see where the strength lies.

Myholisticfitnessperth is proud to be an accredited organisation offering training to achieve this yoga teacher certification.
