Yoga Teacher Training
A Wholistic & Comprehensive Yoga Teacher Training Course.

This Course is based on an experiential understanding of Yoga.
We view yoga teaching as a healing art. If you plan to teach, it will give you a deep understanding of the many facets of yoga.
You will receive the knowledge and skills you need to teach others safely and effectively.
If you don't plan to teach, this course will take you into a full immersion experience of yoga and a deep journey into yourself. You may then find yourself sharing informally with others.

To be a yoga teacher is a privilege and a responsibility. Far from just an exercise instructor, he or she can be a beacon of light that ripples out in many unseen ways to uplift and change lives. By devoted and consistent practice of the many tools of yoga, the mind is purified, the body becomes strong and supple, and the energy channels become clear and free-flowing. Thus the yogi has the potential of channelling the power of Spirit unhindered by the fetters of the ego. Radiant Light Yoga Teacher Training is a full immersion into the Path of Yoga. Those students who are seeking to deepen their personal practice will find all aspects of the yoga lifestyle offered in a comprehensive and transformative way.

Those who aspire to serve others as teachers of yoga will gain the tools they need to meet the needs of every person-young or old, raw beginners to advanced.

The asanas are taught with an emphasis on balancing strength with flexibility to ensure a sustainable practice to last a lifetime. Careful attention is given to safe alignment for ultimate benefits. In RLY teaching, the pose is modified to the needs of the individual, rather than trying to mold the person to some superimposed idea of how the asana should look.

Teaching thus with compassion, the quality of the RLY practice is a yoga journey into Spirit. Each practice is a seamless flow of smooth transitions between poses, creating a smooth, soul-nurturing experience. The most important criteria for acceptance into the course is a sincere desire to be of service to others, to live a yogic lifestyle, and a commitment to meditation.

"As a result of studying with Adam & Akash, my body is stronger and more flexible, I feel my body wisdom increasing all the time. Thursdays at Ytt are always the best day of the week! Being able to immerse myself in the flow and the teachings for a whole day a week is such a blessing. I have so many tools now to help me to cope with the us and downs of life: YTT has provided such a fantastic range from meditation, mudra, asana, introspection, the whole system of yoga indeed! The structure of the course itself is the best I have experienced yet, and I’ve been a student my whole life! I find the day flows so well, the structure is consistent with the teaching, information is given in manageable size, the teaching is given from experience and from the heart, anatomy is really fun…I could go on and on….But the point is it’s the most enjoyable course I’ve ever attended! You’ve restored my faith that not all education has to be disappointing. Thank you!"

"This course has changed my life (is still changing my life) for the better. It has given me a path to follow. Where before I was lost for a direction to go, with this course I have found the way to live my life, it’s like coming home. I am becoming more disciplined, with yoga and meditation and this flows into my life.The course has also shown me how to listen to my body, to go deeper and ask questions of my body, mind and soul. Having a cellular acceptance/knowledge of body wisdom. It has made me aware of the Divine/God once again and the ability to ask for help and trust in all that is given. All these things the course has done for me and more. I am forever thankful that you accepted me on the course, it has put me on the right path. Thank you so much."
