10 weeks, 200 hours weekend yoga teacher training course in The Netherlands

Yoga is for everyone and for everyone there should be a way to practice it. Yet without the right knowledge Yoga can be harmful rather than useful. To make the right knowledge available for everyone, Pinky More and her team organize a 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training in the Netherlands on your days off. Besides Asana’s you will learn to reprogram your standards in life, support your physical activities with a proper diet, a positive attitude and a focused mind.

For Whom?

The course is not only for those who wish to teach, but for everyone who wants to learn more about yoga or wants to start the path of transformation to a happy and healthy lifestyle.

The course is both for beginners as for experienced yoga practitioners and teachers. It is not required to have any previous Yoga experience to participate in this course. The education is enriching for everyone as it does not merely focus on Asana’s but deals with the fundamental background of traditional Indian Yoga philosophy. Before learning what to teach others you implement the ancient knowledge of Yoga on yourself.

The Yoga Institute

The Indian Classic Yoga, RYT 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training Course, is organized by the standards of The Yoga Institute in Mumbai, the oldest organized Yoga Centre in the world. The Yoga Institute is founded by Shri Yogendra who was taught Yoga by a Sadhu. Sadhus are the original practitioners of yoga. They devote their lives to attain enlightenment, but live solitary lives and keep their knowledge to themselves. Shri Yogendra is the first Yogi to start a family and make the wisdom of yoga public. For over 100 years the Yogendra family has transformed the lives of millions and now the teachings are available in Europe.

What They Say.

This is the first day of the rest of your life! The best investment of yourself! I will make a change of food in my life and cutting habits. I am in contact with the universal energy again since 7 years. Yeahaaa!

What I would say to someone who is interested in following the TTC is, ‘Do it’! It is not only a truly enriching experience, but one that has the potential to change your life. I absolutely loved the diversity of each day. The mix between theory, practice and different activities is fun and also keeps me alert and energized during the day. I also really, really enjoyed learning about the theory and background of Yoga, Indian philosophy and the Sanskrit language.

My perception of Yoga has changed, as it is more about all aspects of life then I thought. And also there is more behind the practical part which is only highlighted in Western Yoga. After following this course I will take better care of myself before others and tr to love myself more. Not to depend on others but myself and have more faith in the universe.
