Level Up your Yoga Knowledge
Being a teacher trainee gives you access to the fundamental knowledge needed to teach as well as for you as a yoga student. All yoga teachers are forever students of yoga. Take the RYT200 to gain a deeper comprehension of yogic philosophy and the history so that you can better understand your own passion for it and share with others.
Holistic Teaching and Instruction
Westchester Yoga has a holistic teaching methodology. This means that we teach e.g. The philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita with the business of yoga, and the asanas with the chakras, the chakras with the glandular system. This method of instruction, we have found, increases the retention of the subject matter of our trainees.
Practical Experience
After creating Westchester Yoga, our founder interviewed new yoga teacher graduates to join the teaching team. She noticed that most of the teachers did not have nearly enough yoga teaching experience during their studies of the RYT200. Westchester Yoga has a stong practical teaching component. Each graduate has taught at least 10 yoga classes before graduating, if not more!
