East Eagle Yoga - TeacherTraining

Teacher Training

We will be offering the Yoga Teacher Training course (200 hr) starting March 16th, 2012. We are approved by The Yoga Alliance as a Registered Yoga School. Yoga Alliance® registers both individual yoga teachers and yoga teacher training programs who have complied with educational standards established by the organization.

If you are interested in Teacher Training, please email Nicole at Nicoleyogini@aol.com .

As a teacher trainee, some of the things you will learn are:

Anatomy and physiology of yoga postures
Subtle body anatomy (chakras, nadis etc.)
Hatha yoga techniques
Meditation
Teaching methodology
Yoga philosophy and yogic text
Yoga lifestyle and diet
Yoga ethics

It has been our experience when training teachers in the past that many students who attend teacher training do not necessarily intend to teach yoga when the program is complete. These are students looking to deepen their understanding and practice of yoga in a significant way. There is no requirement regarding your past experience or expertise in yoga, just a willingness to learn and a sincere interest in personal growth. The time spent in teacher training is a profound experience of self-exploration and sincere study.

Prices for teacher training: $2100 - total due March 1 (gives you a discount of $150), or, pay in 3 installments: $1000 due March 1, $625 due April 1, and $625 due May 1 for a total of $2,250. Both include unlimited yoga in the price of tuition.

Dates for teacher training 2012: We will be meeting 6-10 pm on Friday night and Saturday from 9-5 or 10:30-5 depending on which hatha yoga class you come to. The 1st weekend of Teacher Training will be March 16 and 17, 2012. Other dates will be posted soon.

Here's what some graduates from our 2011 class had to say about their experiences:

"Just as they do in hatha yoga class, in teacher training Joe and Nicole match the effort brought by their students. So the more effort you put in to the teacher training course, the more you will get out of the experience. Everyone in the class is on their own individual journey, but you make that journey together. It may seem overwhelming at first, but as the year unfolds and you begin to incorporate yogic principles into your daily life, everything becomes easier. We are lucky to have such knowledgeable and passionate teachers who are eager to pass on an authentic tradition of yoga."

"When the student is ready, the teacher appears" - The Royal Path Nicole had asked me a few times to join YTT, and I felt that I wasn't ready. There was always something in my life that had stopped me. I finally got to a point last year that I knew that this was what I wanted to do, and I put myself first. And, I'm so glad that I did. I learned so much during YTT - not only asanas, how to breathe and meditation - but so much about myself and others through reflections. I would highly recommend YTT at EEY! It changed my life. I'll be forever grateful that my teacher appeared, and I was ready."

"It has truly been the most life-changing experience that has transformed me from who I thought I was to who I am and want to be. It has inspired, helped, challenged, strengthened and guided me on the path I am grateful to walk and I feel was meant for me; emotionally, mentally and most of all spiritually. I am a different person with different values, morals and outlooks. It has opened my heart to something I had no faith in. Following the lessons of this training, teachings of Joe and Nicole and devoting time to myself and practicing peace and love within me, I now feel ready to pass it on. Completing TT at EEY has truly been my proudest accomplishment and though for me the training is over, it is only a beginning of life's path. I will never stop learning and being grateful for those who have paved this amazing path for centuries."
