India is the land of ancient wisdom and peace. The traditional practices of yoga began in India more than 5,000 years ago. If you are going to understand the roots of this practice, and want to be a teacher that honors the ancient tradition, India is the place for you to complete your Yoga TTC.
Completing a Yoga Teacher Training course in India is a unique and challenging experience. It will push you out of your “comfort zone” and allow you to connect with the deeper meaning of living the yoga lifestyle. India is filled with sensory overload- sights, sounds, and smells that transport you to a place of captivating beauty and sometimes, utter chaos. However, it is in this fast-paced environment that we find our sense of peace. Regardless of the external circumstances, the challenge of yoga is to always come back to the peace within.
In India, you will see monkeys, cows, horses, dogs, goats, and many other animals walking past you on a daily basis. Their streets are crowded with sellers of mala beads, incense, fresh fruit, and small sculptures of Hindu Gods and Buddhas. The people greet you with a smile and “Namaste” or “Hari Om” as you pass by. In the communities of both Rishikesh and Dharamsala, the people are devoted to enhancing and supporting the spiritual development of others. They honor the traditions of the ancients and are steadfast in their beliefs of meditation as the path to enlightenment and liberation.
