POSITIVE HEALTH
Health is the most substantial outcome of Yoga. Yet we miss this important aspect of Yoga as we rush to complete any Yoga teacher training program. Our 28 days Hatha Yoga teacher training program is the one that not only helps you to gain teaching competency but also to experience positive health.
Learn to teach Yoga with exuberance by understanding, embracing and experiencing the inner mechanisms for complete health and well-being. Our school’s countryside location with its clean and green environment comes as a natural support to you, as you learn to relax and tone different muscle groups through yoga along with its calming effect on the mind, towards a continuous expansion of your health dimensions.
The true spirit of Yoga lies in experiencing the expansion within, which is brought about by forging the absolute balance between body and mind and Hatha Yoga truly masters this art of balance by systematically taking you through gross to subtle awareness. Rediscover your health with us as you refine your Yoga knowledge, practice and its teaching.
ORGANIC FOOD
Akshara is a unique place where healthy and pure vegetarian organic food is served daily to all yoga school residents. A light and balanced vegetarian diet is considered conducive for yoga practice according to Hatha yoga. Cereals and vegetables are grown organically in our own farm and served fresh. The school has many orchards for seasonal supplies of fruits as well.
FARM FRESH MILK
Milk and milk products form an important part of Yogic diet science ancient times. Cow’s milk is considered as an elixir in Yogic traditions and has healing properties. Hatha yoga has considered milk and ghee as conducive for yoga practice. In our yoga school we provide fresh and pure milk procured from our own dairy farm. All cows are fed on a highly nutritious forage and silage, grown and prepared at our farm to get high quality nutritious milk.
LIVING AND LEARNING
We provide comfortable living with all the amenities to make life easier for students. A pleasant living experience makes a delightful learning experience. We provide twin sharing comfortable rooms with attach toilets. All toilets are fitted with modern fixtures to provide you a really comfortable experience. Every morning after breakfast students practice karma yoga (selfless action or action in relaxation) in the school’s garden or at farm fields to bring out the inner bliss and exude happiness and satisfaction throughout the day.
