Key Aspects of yoga ttc

At IYMS, we give equal emphasis, on all aspects of Yoga, the science behind the Yoga. Understanding the science gives the Yogi confidence, as he has deep understanding of the inner physiological, muscular and mental impact of each and every transition of Yogic mudras.

Here are the key learning aspects during the TTC course at IYMS.

Unless you understand the human body, you will never be able to understand the science behind every pose of Yoga. The anatomy class emphasises on every posture and the impact of the posture on the human body. It gives the Yogis a new perspective into Yoga.

2 Yoga Philosophy

Yoga is not just a physical exercise, it is an exercise of both mind and body. The philosophy class motivates your mind to be inquisitive and dive deeper into the vast ocean of vedic learnings and Yoga.

3 Perfecting the Asanas

Anyone can do Yoga by watching a youtube video, then what is the need of Gurus? The asanas can be performed, but they need to be mastered and perfected and unless you are in company of someone who has mastered it, you will never come to know your flaws. The teachers align you everyday and by the end of the course, you are not only perfectly aligned but you also understand the importance of alignment.

4 Learn To Teach

Taking a class is the easy part, there are certain aspects of class that a student never even thinks of. Planning a class, picking up the weak students and make sure they don’t hurt themselves, sounding confident during the class, commanding the class during the sessions, we help you understand and overcome each of these hurdles before taking a class.

5 Yogi’s Discipline

Avdhoot Ashram is the perfect place to learn discipline. The ashram not only helps you learn discipline, but it also helps you live to the fullest of your potential. Rising on time, taking balanced diets, taking proper rest, they all add up to make a Yogi. At our ashram, we help you to gradually understand the Yogic style of life.
