Ananda Ashram Yoga Teacher Training
March 2008
Ananda Ashram / International Schools of East-West Unity (Gurukula) invites you to participate in our Yoga Teacher Training and join us in our mission of unity and world peace. Immerse yourself in this month long study of Yoga and gain the knowledge needed to bring the teachings into your daily life and to share this ancient practice with others.
A country Yoga retreat on 85 wooded acres in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, the Ashram offers the perfect environment for learning. The six day a week Training will be held March 1-30 and led by our School of Hatha Yoga teachers, along with many Ananda Ashram teachers taught directly by founder, Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati. The program includes two Hatha Yoga classes per day, meditation, Sanskrit, anatomy & physiology, philosophy, teaching practice & application, study of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita and other texts of yoga as well as mentorship.
The serene and natural setting, along with the inspirational and unique atmosphere of Ananda Ashram, provides the opportunity for an unparalleled direct experience of the true essence of Yoga.
“Ashram is the University of Nature. It presents not only the integration and unity of all sciences, cultures, philosophies, and environmental and ecological approaches, but it also encourages and provides opportunity for an independent way of thinking, meditating and application. According to the philosophy of Ashram, the universe is the university.
Every individual has some uniqueness in him or her. Therefore, Ashram life encourages every individual to blossom in his or her own way. Our university and school education is reforming in nature. But Ashram life, in addition to offering reformation, is the center of transformation.”
-Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati
Living and studying at Ananda Ashram allows you to absorb yourself in yoga as a lifestyle.
