Yoga Teacher Training
with The Kevala Centre (Yoga Register School)
Principal: Ruth Gilmore
What is the Aim of the Diploma Course in Yoga Teachings?
This exciting Yoga Teaching course has been designed for students
of Yoga who wish to formalise their knowledge. The course takes
you on a fascinating journey that will prepare you for your
role as tutor and guide. It aims to remove much of the mystique
and thereby open yoga up to wider participation. On this diploma
course you will also investigate the use of chakras, different
meditation techniques, the use of pranayama and how to set up
and run a class. You will also learn about positive thinking,
nutrition, fasting, the healing breath and a small section on
yoga for children.
This course is designed to teach the student of Yoga how to
pass the benefits on to others - it does not set out to teach
yoga postures to those with no experience. We require students
on this course to have been studying the asanas for at least
two years and to have reached at least intermediate level. It
is also compulsory to continue to attend a local yoga class
while studying.
As with all our diplomas, we strongly recommend the students
attend at least one tutorial at the Centre for assessment and
support.
What Does the Course Cover?
The Course comprises 12 modules and covers:-
- Background: Outline of the background and philosophy of

n.b: Our full Anatomy & Physiology programme is
included with this course. As part of the final examination

in various asanas chosen from a list of options. Similar photographs
are also required as part of Yoga Teacher Module 3.
