To become a professional yoga instructor, you must attend yoga teaching and training courses. Yoga instructor training class not only teaches basic contents such as yoga practice methods, yoga poses and yoga philosophy, but also teaches how to teach, which is equally important.
First of all, learning yoga requires learning the history and philosophy of yoga, the concept and significance of yoga, yoga practice, yoga pose, yoga breathing, yoga meditation, yoga curriculum arrangement, yoga teaching, yoga practice assistance, yoga pose physiotherapy, yoga anatomy and so on. An excellent yoga instructor will not only teach movements, but also give different practice plans for students with different conditions, instead of teaching rigidly according to a set of movements every day.

Although the origin of yoga is Indian, it is becoming more and more popular in China. More and more people practice yoga, which is accompanied by the mushrooming growth of many yoga training institutions!
Where is the yoga instructor training in China better? Zen Yoga College objectively answers this question:
1. Look at the curriculum system and teaching materials
The curriculum system needs to be practical, systematic and concrete, taking into account future employment, so that students can apply what they have learned. So we need to see whether the curriculum system is comprehensive. In the textbook, yoga practice is closely related to our body, so human body structure, physiological anatomy, exercise physiology, class mode, posture arrangement and posture explanation should also be included. Moreover, the teaching materials of training institutions should not use published books on the market, but should be combined with students and curriculum system to develop suitable teaching materials, so feelyoga suggests that you read the teaching materials yourself, after all, seeing is believing.
Look at the training certificate
First of all, in China, both the Ministry of Human Resources and the Ministry of Social Security. There are no specifications and documents in the yoga industry, but in the yoga industry, whether it is a training institution or a yoga studio, the authoritative certifications at home and abroad are the National Yoga Alliance Certification and the European Yoga Alliance Certification, TTC Certification (Iyengar Certification) and Ashtanga Authorization and Certification. Yoga Alliance, founded in 1982, is an authoritative yoga training institution in the world. The Alliance convened authoritative yoga professionals from the United States and even the world to formulate internationally certified yoga teacher training standards through unified discussion and research on the training systems of various schools. This standard is authoritative and scientific, and has been recognized by various yoga colleges.

3. Look at the yoga training system
The academic system is also the study time. How long does it take to study, including how many hours a day, how many days a week, etc. On the one hand, it explains the amount of learning content, on the other hand, it affects the learning cost. The academic system should be reasonable and the class hours should be sufficient. Class hours refer to the real teaching time of teachers, excluding free practice time and free practice time. According to our experience, the general routine coaching course can be basically completed in 200 class hours, and the rest is to strengthen self-practice, find problems and solve problems in practice.
Step 4 meet the teacher
No matter what industry, it is important to choose a good teacher, and so is yoga. A truly excellent yoga teacher should not only know all kinds of yoga styles, but also have profound cultural background and theoretical knowledge of yoga philosophy. The so-called kindness of teachers can not only teach you how to become an excellent yoga instructor, but also guide you to make correct career planning and life planning. According to India, the guru can redeem the soul. The ultimate goal of yoga is to achieve the unity of body and mind and get the final liberation. The level of teachers determines your starting point, and you have more opportunities to achieve something on the shoulders of giants.
5. Look at the cost of learning
This is probably what most people care about most. In addition to knowing the amount of tuition, we should also know whether the composition of tuition is reasonable. The price of good products and services should not be too low. Accordingly, if the price is very low, products and services are likely to be discounted accordingly. Reasonable training fees should be combined with employment services, curriculum system, educational system, certificates, teachers and other factors, rather than simply taking fees as the only criterion for selecting training institutions.
Don't choose short-term yoga training classes in order to shorten the time of yoga training; Although the training time is short in this way, you will learn less. You haven't been a yoga instructor for a long time, but only if you love this industry and have confidence in it. When receiving training, we should study hard and master professional fitness knowledge and skills, which is a great progress in the yoga industry.
Different yoga training colleges have different time rules for yoga training classes. It doesn't matter how long you study. What matters is how much skill knowledge you can learn and how much yoga training skills you can master, which is the capital for yoga instructors to stand on in the yoga industry.
To sum up, how beginners choose the right yoga training institutions can be implemented according to the above suggestions. Zen yoga suggests that you can communicate by phone first, then go on a field trip, or experience a yoga class, so that you can know more clearly whether the selected teaching and training institution is suitable for you!
