Learn how to teach yoga that is grounded in functional anatomy for the purpose of helping students understand their own bodies, and build a powerful, consistent practice.

You will learn the foundations of the Ghosh Yoga Lineage, explore the history of yoga and its relevance to a modern practice and understand foundational anatomy and anatomical principles that will help you build a strong foundation on which to grow as a teacher and practitioner.

The course is extensive, however, it is designed to fit into the structure of your life. There are eight training weekends during which you will learn anatomy, delve into the technical aspects of postures and teaching them, study the history of yoga, of the Ghosh lineage and think critically about how we think about yoga today. Over the course of eight months you will have ample opportunities to practice and hone your teaching skills. The anatomy you learn will be thorough and comprehensive, and importantly, accessible and relevant to teaching physical practice of yoga. We believe that understanding the fundamental way the body works is essential to teaching a strong, effective and safe class.

While the primary focus of this training will be around yoga as practiced as part of the Ghosh lineage, you will also learn about other lineages, their unique differences and how to approach those differences in your teaching and in your personal practice as well. As a studio we embrace multiple styles of yoga, of which Ghosh is just one. As you will see, yoga has a rich and complicated history. Our goal is to look at it the entire practice squarely and plainly through a historical lens. 

❋ Comprehensive Curriculum

Course will be taught by skilled and experienced teachers with an array of expertise beyond the mat. We believe that one of a yoga teacher’s key roles is helping students build a solid and consistent practice on which they can build and improve over the course of a lifetime 

❋ Your Instructors

You will be granted unlimited access to all classes at Eclipse Hot Yoga for the duration of your training. Workbooks and lecture material will be provided along with access to readings or other relevant references.

FAQs

  • “Ghosh Yoga” is a set of values and traditions passed down from Bishnu Charan Ghosh. It shares a lot of history and values with other yoga systems, since most yoga traces its roots back to early texts and philosophies.

    Generally speaking, the goals of Ghosh Yoga begin with health in the body and stillness in the mind. It is characterized by its use of stillness during and immediately following yoga postures. This system of tension and release emphasizes relaxation between periods of effort. (This is different from many modern styles of yoga that incorporate Sun Salutes between postures and link postures together.) (from ghoshyoga.org)

  • Yes. We urge to look at the program dates and make sure that you can make yourself available to be present on those designated weekends and that your schedule realistically allows for the completion of required coursework.

    That said, a lot happens over the course of eight months. The course allows for one training weekend to be missed which you can than make up by coordinating with program leaders.

    What makes this training so effective is in part due to its small group learning model. Each program participant plays a vital role in creating a successful learning environment. 

  • You will be required to take at least three yoga classes per week. Preferably two of those three classes will be in the Ghosh style. Eclipse has a robust schedule and you should be able to find classes that fit your schedule.

  • If you are interested in understanding how the body works and moves, and/or want to learn more about the history of the Ghosh Lineage or more about the therapeutic aspects of the practice, you will certainly find value in this training. We have found that some students who enter trainings without intention of teaching discover something within themselves in the process of learning to teach others.
