Finest programs in the study of Yoga

Shantarasa Yoga Institute offers some of the finest programs in the study of Yoga and Ayurveda.
Through our accredited training programs we seek to honour the traditions we draw upon; to fully represent the rich roots and methods of practice of both Yoga and Ayurveda, while communicating directly and simply the essence of these great life giving sciences in ways that allow integration into contemporary living.

Hatha yoga facilitation unlike other forms of personal training
The Hatha Yoga Teacher Training Courses Levels One and Two train highly competent Yoga instructors who are able to directly resource, from potent personal practice, the ability to inform and guide their students in yoga asana practice. Yoga facilitation is quite unlike other forms of personal training in that what is actually being developed is not only the body but awareness itself.  Body, breath, mind and the animating consciousness are harmoniously and skilfully attended to enliven and potentise their functions into a seamless and integrated holistic experience.

Learning environement
Students participating in the Shantarasa Teacher Training Courses are placed, as nearly as possible, in the same learning and transformational environment as would occur in a traditional context, to enable the kinds of deep internal changes to occur that craft the character of a teacher who can lead by example and live Yoga as a life path.

Fascinating components of study
Students are exposed to the extraordinary knowledge base that informs and guides all yogic practice. The theoretical components of the courses offer interface with avenues of study rarely encountered in most current courses of study. As well as thorough asana training the practical study  also incorporates anatomy and physiology with its unique application to yoga practice as well as subtle anatomy and physiology as it pertains to the evolution of human potentiality and the basic elements of yoga therapeutic practice.

NEW! one month intensive format
We now offer a NEW one month intensive format for the Level 1 Certificate program, with ongoing mentorship extending over a 12 month period and practicum to be completed after the intensive.  The Level 2 Certificate is an extended and deeper course of study.  It is offered in similar intensive formats that further develops already qualified Level 1 teachers with proficiency skills in the areas of Yoga Therapy, design and delivery of community based programs and teaching the more subtle, deeper methods of yogic practice. See pages dedicated to each course for more detailed course curriculum and outline or email info@shantarasa.com for information packages and dates.

HATHA YOGA TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS RECOGNISED BY YOGA ALLIANCE AND YOGA AUSTRALIA

Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultancy Cert 1V
The Ayurvedic courses similarly draw from the highly sophisticated science of life described and practiced through Ayurvedic medicine.   Ayurveda is like no other science of human health and total wellbeing due to its incredibly refined understanding of the interplay between the human being and environment (cosmos) and the human being and consciousness, to create the inner vital balance that expresses itself as health and upliftment.

Shantarasa currently offers the 1 year Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultancy program auspiced to Cert 1V through the Natural Health Academy of Australia. The Three year Diploma will soon be on offer and the 1 year program will count as part of the Diploma program. The first level course is the basic training that develops a competent consultant in maintaining balance and wellbeing through constitutional (prakriti) approaches toward health and wellbeing.  See pages dedicated to the full description of these courses by clicking in side bar.
