This is the 4th time that I have participated in the Yoga Passage's Yoga Teacher Training. This year is the smallest of the 4 times that I have been involved. There were 25 to 33 students in the previous trainings and now there is 14.
The major difference I feel this time around is that when I am asked to teach the group I have soo very much more surety and confidence. I really do love sharing about yoga and anything related to the topic.
Over these 5 trainings I have developed up a curriculum for a basic 200 hour training and have considered what I would love to see in a 300 hour bridge to become a 500 hour certified teacher.
Every single training is so vastly different as the differing experiences, emotions, presentations of each person mix into the whole of the training. So much knowledge in one space.
Participating really allows me to study myself. The reactions I have with each person or each teaching.
One of the majors that I keep coming back to is - keep it in the scope of a 200 hour training. Its so easy to go off into the depths of knowledge in one topic and then invariably other topics suffer. I would much prefer to give a base foundation for a 200 hour training so that each of my students/peers is able to go beyond the basics with any other person.
Always remembering that even though I think that all I know is true, in fact I know that at least half of that is wrong. My problem is that I don't know what half. Continuously while life is present I am a student, regardless how much I teach.
Loving kindness is my daily meditation.
Metta!
