5 Issues to Choosing The Right Yoga Teacher Certification Program for You

If you've been looking at Yoga teacher training Westchester programs, you've probably seen the wide variety of approaches, institutions, and curricula available. Taking a course to become a yoga teacher is a substantial cost and time commitment. It might be challenging to determine which option best suits your needs. Below are the top 5 tips to help you while you do your research:

I already paid for an online course and didn’t finish! Help!

Many have already experienced the drawbacks of online yoga teacher training, paid for a course and did not finish it.  They still want to complete the training but with another school.  But it pains them to have to pay all over again. Check and see with the schools that you are considering , like Westchester Yoga, they will give you a significant discount for their program with proof of your previous TT purchase.

Yoga Alliance Registered Schools

Check and see if the school that you are considering is registered with Yoga Alliance.  Equally Yoga Alliance has an upleveled RYT200 designation for some schools. If the quality of the program is important check and see if the school has the upleveled status.

Class Size

Some online trainings have thousands of teacher trainees. It is hard to stay on track, stay accountable and feel like you are part of a real community when this is the case. Equally you need to send in videos to have your teaching evaluated. Smaller class sizes means that the faculty can give you detailed feedback rather than 3 lines.  Detail feedback means that you know what and how to improve. If the class size is massive, chances are they simply do not have the time and resources to give each trainee the detailed feedback that they need. This translates to you not feeling entirely confident teaching a yoga class even after you graduate.

Yoga is Community

When you schedule a call for the school, do you speak with the lead faculty? That is a big indicator of whether or not you will have direct communication with the teacher during the training.  There are some online yoga schools that send videos to answer questions, they are not in your time zone. Ask what time zone they are in.  A big part of traditional yoga is the community, how does the school create that sense of belonging.

YOUR Reasons

Your reasons are unique to you.  Some people want to create a yoga family. It is important to have a personal connection with the faculty and the classmates. For others it is not.  For others it’s all about the price, the lower the better. Make a list, a dream list, write it out. What are the most important things for YOU?  Have the list in heart, mind and in front of you when you do your research.  Follow the schools that you are considering on social media, sign up for their newsletters.  Get to know them and see if they match the vibe that you are looking for.

Top Benefits of Enrolling in Private Yoga Classes

Over the past decade Western research has proven the benefits of Yoga.  Yes, the practice of yoga poses increases strength, flexibility equally. It relieves stress by the use of the breath. However, depending on our life situations, a group session is simply not accessible. Private yoga is a fantastic solution, or semi-private with friends, classmates or colleagues. 

Tailored instruction


The best part of taking yoga lessons one-on-one is that each session can be customized to your specific requirements.  Our private clients range from chair yoga, recovery after injury, cross training for athletes, advanced tutoring and training for yoga teachers, office workers, beginners, destressing yoga for teachers, yoga for a healthy back, meditation or breath practice.  Your instructor will create a program tailored for you and your group.. 


Get your concerns addressed


It can be intimidating to ask questions in a yoga class.  In private class, it is encouraged and welcome.  Deepen your understanding of yoga, safely, with answers to your queries.



Accessibility


Whether you have limited time or your schedule does not allow you to take a group class or if you have limited mobility to travel to yoga, private sessions are the way to go.  Make an appointment when you are available and the teacher will come to you. Or we can offer zoom sessions livestream.


Develop your Practice Sequentially


The best way to take private sessions is to purchase a package of 5 or more.  This will give you and the teacher time to develop the class, moving and evolving to your progress sequentially. Instead of dropping in whenever you can to a group session, and not building on something that you are working on - the private sessions give you time to work with the teacher and the teacher to develop the classes for you.  Building, fine-tuning and adapting with each class.


Good for people of all skill levels


Private classes do not require a skill level.  You can be a beginner,  even recovering from a heart attack or an athlete wanting more flexibility, or you are coming to yoga to improve your sleep, posture or anything in between.  We got you!


Wrap Up!

How Can Practicing Yoga Help You Make Changes To Your Life?

If you are a dedicated yoga practitioner, you must have likely experienced many of its positive effects. Perhaps you've noticed an improvement in your quality of life, whether it be through improved sleep, fewer colds, or a general sense of calm and ease. However, you may find that comments like "It stimulates the circulation of prana" or "It carries energy up your spine" are a bit confusing to understand.

Fortunately, Western research is beginning to shed light on how yoga might help with health issues like aches and pains and illness prevention. After you've understood them, you'll be even more inspired to practice yoga in Westchester NY, and less likely to be at a loss for words the next time someone asks you why you hit the mat.

1. Builds the muscle strength

Having strong muscles is beneficial in more ways than one. They shield us against ailments such as arthritis and back pain, and they assist senior individuals in maintaining their balance and avoiding falls. You can counteract the effects of building strength through yoga by increasing your flexibility. Just going to the gym and doing weights might help you get stronger, but it could make you less flexible.

2. Protects your spine

Spinal discs, which are shock absorbers located between the vertebrae and are vulnerable to herniation and the subsequent compression of nerves, yearn for movement. The only way for them to receive the nutrition they need is through this method. Your discs will be able to maintain their flexibility if your asana practice is well-rounded and includes a good number of twists, backbends, and forward bends. One of the acknowledged benefits of yoga is increased flexibility over time, but this benefit continues to be especially important for maintaining spinal health.

3. Increases your strength

Despite yoga's common association with flexibility and stretching, some practices can really be construed as strength training. It all depends on the course, the method, and the instructor. This means that yoga asana can benefit people in many different ways. Strength gains through yoga have been investigated in a variety of settings, including those of persons with breast cancer, the elderly, and young children. Yoga was proven to be an excellent strength-building technique across a wide range of ages and levels of fitness in another study involving air force members.

4. Lymphatic drainage and immunity boost

Increased muscle contraction and stretching, as well as the movement of the organs and transitioning into and out of yoga postures, all contribute to an increase in lymphatic drainage. Because of this, the lymphatic system is better able to fight infections, eliminate malignant cells, and eliminate harmful waste products produced by functioning cells.

There is so much one need to know about yoga before starting to practice it.
