Description
list the major aspects of your Retreat you would like to bring forward (make it concise)
Meditation initiations
Each week you will be taken into the depths of a different and potent meditation technique by our empowered teachers. Daily practice of each technique will help you discover which form of meditation works for you best and give you the ability to guide your future students.
Styles of yoga
You will be trained in major, classical poses of hatha yoga obtaining a thorough understanding of their physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual effects.
Additionally, MYTTC offers vinyasa, restorative, and yin practices of yoga with a great emphasis on tantra yoga addressing the subtle energetic and spiritual effects of our practice.
Anatomy and physiology
We want you to have a good understanding of the anatomy and physiology of our bodies without getting overwhelmed by medical words alone.
Our expert teachers will create immersions into anatomy, physiology, and Ayurveda – the sister science of yoga – for you to explore yoga`s effects and functioning in our being from a scientific perspective.
Kriya techniques
We will teach and practice together selected techniques from the shat karma kriya system. This will assist our bodies in the purification processes that occur during intensive yoga and meditation practice. These techniques are gems that you will want to share with your students.
Teaching and professional skills
We love sharing our passion for this path. We want you to develop all of the required teaching skills; from making adjustments/corrections to giving effective discourses to tuning into the needs of the individual and the group.
We would also like to broaden your vision on how to make teaching yoga and meditation your profession.
