Make your vision become reality at Andaman Yoga Academy!
Are you dreaming of turning your passion for yoga into a profession? Are you a curious yoga practitioner who want to deepen your practice? Do you want a wide understanding of the yoga methodologies, with space for reflection and creativity, rather than one single approach? Do you want a broad foundation and/or a deeper dive into one or more aspects of yoga?
Our training is a journey in three steps, where you learn what you need to start working professionally as a Yoga Teacher. You will get comprehensive training in guiding people through asanas and flows, energy methods and breathing practices, in a safe manner. You will learn to adjust sequences and methods to suit different purposes, individuals, and groups. At the same time, you deepen your own understanding of yoga in ways that will lift your personal practice to a new level.
Our lead teachers are senior teachers each with more than 20 years of experience, and each with extensive experience of teacher trainings. Upon completion of the full 200-hour program, you will get the Andaman Yoga Academy Teacher Certificate, and you can register with Yoga Alliance as a RYT200.
Why Multistyle?
We are a contemporary school with a solid foundation in tradition, yet we do not strictly follow one single lineage or one single way of practicing. One might use the methods of yoga to aspire towards self realization and towards living more fully in the present moment, and ultimately, our practice might take us in that direction. Still, there are so many different ways to practice, that will bring on different benefits and suit for different circumstances. Many embark on the path of yoga as a way to improve health and wellbeing, in general as well as more specific. HOW and WHAT we practice will greatly impact the effects we gain!
Approaching yoga as a set of tools and being curious about its many different facets, we might be able to tap into its large spectrum of benefits and support a larger variety of students, than if we choose one approach only. We also believe that different approaches can add much value to each other.
Joining a Multistyle Training, you might find some approaches that speak more to you than others, and choose to continue your yoga exploration along that specific path, supported by knowledge and perspectives from the insights gained from the Multistyle perspective.
Program Structure
The training is built up in 3 steps, via online self-studies and 24 days of onsite immersion at our beautiful center in Phuket, Thailand.
Step 1 – Online Preparation – 35 hours
Study our associate Yoga Anatomy (20 hrs) and Yoga Philosophy (15 hrs) online before arriving to the onsite Foundation Program. Note: Completing Step 1 is mandatory to receive the AYA Teacher Certificate. Read more here!
Step 2 – Residential Foundation Training – 125 hours
During week 1 & 2 of the Onsite Training, you will learn the basics of teaching yoga, focusing on tools rather than style or pace, in an informed and safe manner. You will learn the basics of asana (posture) and flow, pranayama, meditation, and deep relaxation, from a wide angle. You will learn about biomechanics, cueing and class management, modifications and adjustments, the basics of sequence building, and much more.
Taking a starting point in Hatha and Flow Yoga, you will get familiar with tools and methods from several perspectives such as Anusara Yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Vedic tradition, and Buddhist tradition.
Step 3 - Residential Specialization Week - 45 hours
Week 3 of the onsite training will be a specialization week where you go deeper into one specific approach to yoga and spend more time with that perspective. In our trainings of August and September 2024, the Specialization Week will focus on Vinyasa Flow and Mantra Chanting Meditation.
Steps 1+2+3 = AYA 200-hour Multistyle Yoga Teacher Training Program
Upon completion, you get the AYA Teacher Training Certificate. We are registered with Yoga Alliance and your Certificate carries the RYS 200 logo.
200-hour Multistyle Yoga Teacher Training: Hatha & Vinyasa
Everyone aspiring to become a Yoga Teacher with AYA starts with the Online Preparation Courses, where you will learn about the anatomy of the body and nervous system in relation to yoga and the underlying history and philosophy on which yoga is based.
During weeks 1 & 2 of the Onsite Training, you will learn the basics of teaching yoga, focusing on tools rather than style or pace, in an informed and safe manner.
Our guiding principles are mindfulness, alignment, and room for individual variations. The aim of the Foundation is to gain skills to guide groups through classes at beginner and intermediate levels, including breathing, relaxation, and meditation techniques. We will explore the energy approach to yoga based in Hatha as well as introducing the art of creating flow and skillful sequencing.
During week 3, you will advance your skills in Vinyasa Yoga, both as a practitioner and a teacher. The focus will be on energizing and uplifting postures, more tools for vinyasa style sequence building, and breathing in motion. You will sharpen your skills to structure a class, to cue visually, verbally as well as using hands-on, and to maintain rhythm and flow in your teaching. This week will also include an in-depth exploration of chanting mantras as a meditation method, focusing on the vibrations of the voice and pronunciation of Sanskrit words and phrases.
Syllabus
200 hrs Multistyle Teacher Training – Hatha & Vinyasa includes:
Techniques, Training & Practice
Professional Essentials
Anatomy & Yoga Humanities
Online Preparation – how it works.
The residential training is preceded by two mandatory, self-paced online courses: 20 hrs Yoga Anatomy and 15 hrs Yoga Philosophy. There are no live online sessions. You should ideally complete the online programs prior to the residential program. You will get access to both courses immediately after your first deposit payment. We recommend that you plan for a minimum of 1 month to complete the online courses.
Yoga Anatomy:
20 hours of self-pace studies including pre-recorded video material, quizzes and in-depth reflective questions.
NOTE: There will also be reading tasks, and you need to buy a book to support the online lessons: David Keil, Functional Anatomy of Yoga.
This course, guided by David Keil, will give a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of human anatomy, all connected to yoga and what you will need to understand as a teacher. The course covers basic terminology as well as major anatomical systems, including: connective tissue, the muscular system, neuromuscular principles, the nervous system (including vagal theory), the skeletal system, the components of breath and bandha, the digestive system, the endocrine system, the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system.
Yoga Philosophy:
15 hours of self-pace studies including pre-recorded video lectures of which 4 hours is on-the-mat explorations of philosophical themes. In-depth reflective questions should be answered after each study chapter and sent in for review via email.
Once the residential and online content is completed, you will get your Andaman Yoga Academy Yoga Teacher certificate.
The course, guided by Simon Krohn, will deepen your knowledge and understanding of how yoga philosophy applies to your everyday life. Yoga has the potential to have a transformational effect on your life. Unfortunately, it is very easy to get lost in a yoga practice, and just about any pattern in your life can sneak into the practice. The control freak is likely to become a “yoga control freak”, and if you are a bit too attached to being a success, you'll easily move towards trying to become a “yoga success”. With that said, we all have negative patterns that we get lost in, and the big question is: Are you tired enough of these patterns to do something about them? If you are serious about letting yoga have a profound, positive effect on your life, you need to look honestly at your life and your patterns and challenge yourself to try something new. This requires both courage and dedication, but it will most probably be worth the effort.
