The Dharma Yoga Life of a Yogi (DY LOAY) 500-hour Teacher Training is an opportunity for certified teachers to take an in-depth look at the entire sacred science of yoga through the lens of Yogi Sri Dharma Mittra’s experience with his Guru and his almost half century of practice and teaching.

Requirements

Dharma Yoga Life of a Yogi 500-hour Teacher Training program: all applicants to this program must have a 200-hour certification from Dharma Yoga or a Yoga Alliance approved 200-hour certification that is recognized by Dharma Yoga, in addition to meeting the program entrance requirements listed in the entry above for the 200-hour program. Please note that the DY LOAY 500-hour TT is an advanced training immersion expressly for serious seekers and dedicated aspirants.

Topics Covered/What to Expect

The emphasis here is on taking one’s personal practice to the next level and on mastering and learning the mechanics of sharing the Dharma II and Dharma III series.

Graduation Requirements

In order to achieve certification, you must complete and submit all pre-training homework assignments, attend every session of the contact hours during the actual immersion program, achieve a passing grade on both the written and oral exams given during the contact hours of the training, complete all of the assignments given during the training where applicable, and complete and submit all supporting documentation and assignments relating to the post-training internship. Please note that in addition to assignments in reading and writing prior to your training, you will be expected to begin shifting over to a vegetarian diet.

Between the contact hour modules of the advanced teacher training immersions, you will have daily assignments in Asana (postures), diet, Pranayama (breathing exercises), Dharana/Dhyana (concentration/meditiation), journaling and actual teaching assignments to complete. During the actual contact hours of the DY LOAY TT, you will be exposed to the full range of classical Yogic techniques and will be expected to participate fully in all aspects of the program. The post-training internships for all programs include teaching, taking class, being observed while teaching and Karma Yoga (selfless service) components that will be explained in detail towards the conclusion of the relevant DY LOAY TT contact hours.
