200 Hours Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training Course

200 Hours Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training Course

This course is based on the foundation of the 200-hour Yoga TTC but has an added component: somatic movement, also known as inborn movement. Inborn movement is the innate movement potential we have from birth; it is movement coming from the body’s natural intelligence. Somatic movement practice comes from our natural sense of movement programmed by our untainted natural intelligence. Where there is somatic movement, self-awareness, breath, and thought are in unity which is the purpose of Yoga.

In this course, we offer you unique gentle movements so that you can do Hatha Yoga by getting in touch with your innate body movement guidance. These inborn movements have origins in various movement therapies that have developed over the years and are based on the movements of children, which are natural and fluid.

200 Hours Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training Course Overview at Indian School of Yoga- India

There is no force required in this course, nor are you required to have great flexibility and strength; just a will to be aware of your movements using mindfulness is enough. When we say mindfulness, we mean applying your awareness, mind, and breath to the movements given. When you tap into your innate movement intelligence, you will naturally become more flexible and fit for Hatha Yoga asanas.

The somatic movements are minimal, slow, and gentle, requiring a heightened sense of deep awareness to perform. The movements are subtle and have the power to change and increase the neural pathways of the brain. In turn, this expands our ability to be more flexible not only physically but emotionally and mentally too. Furthermore, slow movements with awareness calm the breath and the mind bringing feelings of health and harmony. Moving slowly can help the body move more functionally, like when we were children, thereby creating ease in movement instead of force. The awakening of the natural intelligence is the most potent part of somatic movements; when this happens, one finds ease in movement in any movement practice we so choose to do.

Who can enroll for the 200 Hours Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training Course?

Our 200-hour Multi-style yoga movement TTC has been designed for anyone over the age of 16 and can be attended by those with health conditions though we do suggest you consult a medical professional before enrolling if you have persistent health issues. We would advise pregnant women not to enrol on the course as Yoga affects the hormones and could result in adverse effects on the expectant mother and unborn child. This course is especially beneficial for the elderly, those with restricted movement as well as those with  major blockages due to trauma and psycho-emotional issues. One could say that we all experience blockages, even experienced yoga practitioners  hence we would say that this course can be taken by everyone regardless of their prior yoga practice experience.

How does the 200 Hours Multi-style Yoga TTC differ from the Hatha Yoga TTC?

The difference between the two courses is quite simply that the Yoga movement TTC encourages you to move from the core of your natural being without force. This is not to say that the Hatha Yoga TTC requires you to do  Yoga with force; in fact, quite the opposite. However, many of us in the modern world tend to apply a lot of force and effort to our activities due to the over-achievement mentality and impatience to accomplish things quickly. Whilst this can be useful in some situations, it is not so helpful in Yoga practice,

When we over exert ourselves we create excess stress and negativity in our system and this results in blockages in the body due to the psycho-emotional states we get into. In turn this will have an adverse effect on our health and harmony. The blockages created are not easily removed however with inborn Yoga, we learn to connect with our natural mind-body intelligence to release these blocks and this, in turn, makes Yoga asanas more effortless and sustainable.

The same asanas will be done during this course, but extra periods of inborn movement practical and theory training will be given to facilitate yoga asana movements. The rest of the curriculum will remain the same.

200-Hour Multi-style Yoga TTC Benefits

When we do Yoga with somatic practice, our muscles become flexible. Still, some of us do yoga asanas with the force of our minds, which is not sustainable on a holistic level for the mind-body-spirit complex. However, when we do yoga asanas with the force of our mind, we can often contract our neural pathways instead of expanding them, which is the very purpose yoga was designed. Somatic movement based Yoga is especially beneficial for the elderly, the ill, and those suffering from psycho-emotional traumas; in such cases, the neural pathways often get blocked due to fear and the gentle movements of this course can help the individual come out of such blockages with ease and minimal effort. We aim to bring you to a place of movement like when you were a child and did not even have to think about how to move; movement was natural and full of ease.

The modern world is fast-paced and driven by achievement and material success, whatever the cost. Therefore, we ignore our  inner guidance as we are mostly externally focused. When we become externally focussed, we suppress our innate selves and lose touch with our natural intelligence. As we move further away from our natural intelligence, we increase blockages in our mind and body that become difficult to disentangle. The 200-hour yoga movement course facilitates the release of blockages so that you can do yoga asanas more effortlessly; when Yoga becomes effortless for you, it becomes easier for you to teach spontaneously. You  will embody the effortlessness of Yoga and become a great inspiration for others.

The syllabus is essentially the same for both courses, except we have some add-on classes for inborn movement – both theory and practical. These add-on classes will help you understand yoga asanas from a different perspective, so you will be better equipped to teach Yoga.

Yes, you can move on to the 300-hour Yoga TTC course after successful completion of the 200-hour yoga movement course. However, eligibility for the 300-hour Yoga TTC course depends on the successful completion of the 200-hour Yoga movement course or the 200-hour Yoga TTC course.

While both the 200-hour Yoga TTC and the  Yoga Movement TTC are for healing and harmony, the movement course works differently. Hatha Yoga is practiced along with somatic movements to awaken your body's natural movement intelligently slowly from its core. There is no emphasis on how the posture should look; the movements come from the inner rather than working from the outer to the inner. Yoga movement TTC teaches us to let go of how the posture needs to look; after all, we are all different, and our ways of our movement are unique, for they depend on many things, including our mind-body constitution. Our 200-hour yoga movement TTC will cover the basic principles of inborn movements and enable you to learn from the feelings within your body rather than just outer instructions or our perception of the instructions. You get to dive deep within and learn from your natural intelligence. There is no pushing and forcing so  the ease of movement that can be sustained over time even if you were ever to stop the practice of Yoga.
