We train teachers in the most authentic and traditional way—what is known in Sanskrit as *Parampara*.
​
Only a student who has been practicing with us for some time—demonstrating the proper level of practice and true dedication—can access this "direct, personal instruction" from teacher to apprentice, enabling them to eventually teach their own classes.
​
We do not believe that standard teacher training courses are an effective way to transmit this knowledge (though they are certainly profitable for the instructors, who make a lot of money in a short time). We often encounter "pseudo-teachers" who lack any prior personal experience in their own practice.
How can someone who is new to yoga teach it? Simply enrolling in medical school doesn't automatically make you a doctor; it requires time, study, consistency, and dedication.
