Yoga today means many things to many people. From the simplest of meditation techniques to a way of staying healthy and fit through asana practice the ancient science of yoga has become part of many people’s lives. The subject is vast and stems from traditions handed down over 5000 years. Yoga has many paths and offers various ways to seekers of its many benefits. From the physical to the spiritual yoga has become an integral part of society in both the East and the West. People are increasingly realising the benefits of a more holistic approach to their busy lifestyles and in turn the number of people going to yoga classes has risen. The Level 3 Certificate in Teaching Yoga is an award that attempts to bring the ancient teachings and the modern understanding of yoga together. Meeting the National Occupational Standards at level 3 the award is open to anyone who has been practicing yoga for over 2 years. Central YMCA Qualifications, having over 10 years experience within the health and fitness sector saw a significant increase of public interest in yoga classes. Recognising the need for qualified yoga teachers, they created a syllabus from the criteria set by the lead bodies, The Level 3 Certificate in Teaching Yoga. Yoga Professionals are proud to be an accredited centre offering training to achieve this certification. The CYQ Level 3 Certificate in Teaching Yoga is set up 240 guided learning hours Unit 1: Exercise and Fitness Knowledge Level 3 = 50 hours
These units are delivered by Yoga Professionals via blended learning (home study and face to face practical workshops). These modules can be taken in any order with some students prefering to do their practical course first and then study the anatomy and physiology on completion of the practicals. One step towards training to teach yoga is 3 months home study (distance guided learning) of anatomy and physiology, fitness principles along with yoga philosophy and practises (recapped during practical training). This gives you the freedom to study at a time that suits you and your lifestyle. With a designated distance-learning tutor for both yoga and Exercise and Fitness Knowledge, a 24/7 Student Zone to help you out of hours and study guide to help you fit your training around you and your families schedule. E-learning of anatomy and physiology is also provided with full colour manuals, tests and study guides. One part of your training will take place in the studio environment. These practical workshops are set over Fri/Sat/Sun in four weekend instalments and run over an average of 3 months. During this training you will learn how to plan, prepare and teach a yoga class along with other aspects of yoga practices. Yoga history, traditions, code of ethics and other subjects, including the responsibilities of a 21st century teacher of yoga practices are also practised and taught. The practical training focuses on the teaching of asanas, pranayama, mudra, bandha, meditation and yoga kriyas. The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and 8 the limbs of yoga are focused on throughout the training with instruction of how and when to integrate these into your classes. The focus of teaching the breath with the asanas to bring concentration and inner quiet while building strength, flexibility and overall health draws from the 8 limbs and brings it into a western perspective. The three stages of practice are also taught along with the importance of teaching those stages. Yoga Professionals offers training that has embedded within it a passion for the practice of yoga and a respect for the ancient gurus and lineages. Additional to the recommended syllabus, aspects of yoga such as Bhakti yoga (the yoga of devotion) and Karma yoga (the yoga of action) are an integral part of the course. Ancient teachings are offered in a modern environment with a deep respect and gratitude. Our tutors have experience of yoga from ashram training at both preliminary and advanced levels, along with self-study, self-practice and western yoga schools teachings. We believe our courses enrich those ready to teach yoga with not only a certificate to teach but also a personal yoga journey that will enhance your own personal sadhana. Assessment
