Internship and Practicum in Teaching Holistic Yoga

Teaching yoga is best learned under a mentor in a class-setting. In this internship, students will shadow experienced yoga instructors. The seeker of yoga has to consistently and persistently follow a mentor (or a set of mentors) and shadow their practice or teaching until one is soaked in their teaching styles. As a prospective yoga teacher, one needs to learn to observe techniques being taught, the response of the students and the overall experience a given session has on the students in a given yoga class. In this course, the students get practical hands-on training with mentors to be able to teach yoga to their own class. The students form a group under a mentor and teach classes while the mentor observes and provides comments and feedback. In addition, the students get actual field experience where they shadow a real class. Following this, students teach their community in a safe environment where the mentor would be able to guide the students through their 20 hours of field practice and practicum delivery.

Using the knowledge obtained through previous yoga studies courses, students will be able to implement their knowledge of yoga instruction in the field. Initially, students will shadow experienced yoga instructors as they teach various classes, such as dynamic, relaxing, loosening, and strengthening yoga sessions of varying lengths.
