As part of our Yoga-Alliance approved RYT 500 program,
a 3-Week Intensive in classic Astanga yoga from Patajanli’s
yoga sutras is required.
Master Trainers
3-Week Intensives will be taught by RYT 500 and ERYT 500
YogaFit Master Trainers and Sri Jayakumar Swamysree from
the University of Mysore, India. Sri Jayakumar holds the
following degrees in yoga and physical education: B.Sc.,
M.P.Ed. (Mysore), D.Y.Ed.(Lonavala), Y.T.H.P.(Bangalore).
Sri Jayakumar represented India (ICCR) and worked for the
embassy of India, Moscow, Russia for four years. Presently
he also teaches yoga in the University of Mysore, and is
the head of the department of Yoga, Meditation, and Spirituality.
He has been practicing yoga for 28 years and will teach theory,
philosophy, mantra, Sanskrit, meditation, and pranayama for
YogaFit’s 500 hour program in 2009.
Prerequisites
Due to the in-depth nature of this training in philosophy,
theory, pranayama, meditation, and other special techniques,
including chanting yoga sutras relevant to Astanga yoga in
Sanskrit, we are requiring a strong foundation of Patanjali’s
Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and Sanskrit pronunciation. Therefore,
all attending must have completed their Yoga Alliance RYT
200, and Level 4 Integration is a required prerequisite for
this training. Your Level 4 Trainer will be requiring specific
home work and focus for all retrains and evaluating your
readiness for the 3-Week Intensive. Graduates of other RYT
200 programs, will need to also take the YF Level 1 Foundations
training weekend prior to attending the 3-week Intensive.
Prerequisites: RYT 200 & YogaFit Level 4 Integration
(If you received your RYT 200 from another program other
than YF, you will also need to take Level 4 Integration,
but it will not be a retrain for you. Level 4 Trainer will
be requiring specific home study for you and evaluating your
readiness for the 3-Week Intensive.) The retrain rate is
50% of the current registration fee.
