Awaken Your Inner Warrior

200-Hour Yoga Certification/Immersion*

July 2016 - July 2017

One Weekend-Intensive - Every Other Month

In Chelsea, New York City


Vivekan’s Awaken Your Inner Warrior™ Yoga Teacher Training Program is unlike any other 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Certification Program. Vivekan’s unique instruction, perspective and insights developed over 20+ years of personal practice, study and teaching experience has made him one of the most practical, effective and inspiring Yoga Teachers. 

In order to help others on their journey to wellness in body and mind, Vivekan developed Bodhisattva Yoga™ - A comprehensive, modern yogic system for a new generation of yoga practitioners, seekers, and those desiring a complete fitness discipline.

Vivekan’s trainees emerge from the Bodhisattva Yoga Awaken Your Inner Warrior Yoga Teacher Training Program with the knowledge and skills needed to guide and instruct a comprehensive, Level-1 Bodhisattva Yoga Class*, along with the tools for a personal practice. Trainees can participate in the program as an immersion and take the program for their personal enrichment and continuing studies, without seeking Yoga Teacher Certification and having to meet its requisites.

Vivekan’s Awaken Your Inner Warrior Yoga Teacher Training Program is known to accelerate, deepen and/or jumpstart practice progress. It also provides interested practitioners and aspiring teachers with a rare opportunity to study authentic yogic topics and receive insights found nowhere else. By way of his warmth, knowledge, incredible zeal for the practice and exceptional experience as a Senior-Level Yoga Teacher, Vivekan is an out of the ordinary expert who delves into the heart of true yoga.

Many graduates of Vivekan’s Awaken Your Inner Warrior Yoga Teacher Training Program have said that the course’s breadth of material, as well as his personal tips and shares covers above and beyond what other 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Certification Programs include. Many graduates have said that taking the Awaken Your Inner Warrior Yoga Teacher Training Program provided an invaluable edge in their subsequent practice and instruction of yoga, as well as it being one of their most meaningful life experiences.

Vivekan’s spontaneous, enthusiastic and informed instruction of Bodhisattva Yoga inspires practitioners to realize that the art and science of yoga is at once fun and playful, while also being a deeply transformative and profound body of practice.

Notes

 

*Bodhisattva Yoga is a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School, and Vivekan (E-RYT) is a Yoga Alliance Registered Instructor. Upon successful completion of this 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Certification Program and its criteria, graduates will qualify as 200-Hour Certified Yoga Teachers. Those interested in teaching Level-1 Bodhisattva Yoga Classes subsequent to successfully completing the program, can inquire about Bodhisattva Yoga’s Teacher Agreement.

Although attending both weekend yoga retreats is highly encouraged, if you are taking the Awaken Your Inner Warrior Yoga Teacher Training Program as an immersion, these retreats are optional. However, if you seek Yoga Teacher Certification, at least 1 weekend retreat must be attended to graduate.
