SPECIAL PROGRAMS 2010
We
are very happy to inform you that Atmavikasa will be completing 12 years this
November. In Indian tradition, the number twelve suggests growth and maturity.
So, to signify this special occasion, this year onwards we are planning to make
some prominent changes in our Program structure. We have always been quality
oriented and we hope our new programs will enhance the prevailing quality
standards. Our intention is to make our programs traditional, yet scientific.
The
first important change for this year is to “DROP” the Teachers Training
Programs from the list.
Surprised?
Let me explain.
Ten
years ago, Atmavikasa was the first yoga center to introduce Teachers Training
Programs in Mysore. At Atmavikasa, certifying someone as a “teacher” implies
motivating someone to walk the yogic path we have walked for years with
dedication and discipline. It is the establishment of a preeminent
relationship. We believe that being a “teacher” in the true sense, is a lifetime learning experience, and is an ongoing
process. We have always tried to reflect this in our programs.
But
on retrospection, we found that, once certified as teachers, majority of the
students mostly forget that teaching is continuous learning .Only 20% of the
teachers training program attendants have returned to continue learning after
certification. Whereas, 70 - 80% of NON-TTP students have
returned to learn at least once.
This
is not a healthy development. Something is essentially amiss.
This
observation made us realize that, despite our efforts, with the passing of
time, Yoga Teachers Training Programs have globally become a successful onetime
business investment than a way of personal development. This very well explains
the acute shortage of “true” YOGIs in the world.
Atmavikasa
discourages this approach to yoga. We FEEL that money is not useless,
but NOT SUPREME either.
So,
keeping this in mind, we have decided it is our responsibility to try sincerely
to reintroduce the traditional values of yoga to the future teachers who
graduate in Atmavikasa system. To implement this, we are upgrading our teachers
training programs to the next level and introducing-
Teachers Motivation Programs
The Teachers Motivation Programs have two objectives:
1. As the name itself
suggests, we want to motivate the Future teachers of “Atmavikasa” to be good
“learners”. This program not just focuses on the yogic skills but also the
qualities that are important to a practitioner. In short, this program enhances
not just your Practice, but also the quality of life.
2. It prepares you to be
an honest Teacher and not just a “certified” instructor.
