How to be yoga teacher Videos

woohoo Tara you're coming in Russia! that's great)) you're so super inspiring! i'd love to see you here in Moscow and maybe to take part in some yoga events with you! US is so far from here, it would be nice if you'll be somehow closer) also i'd like to buy some of your books and Reebok yoga stuff but we don't have it here. thanks for everything! and for your yoga videos of course! i relax with them before and after my work.

This year I took up a yoga teachers' training course...hip hip hurray! I mean I'm not all that flexible, but yoga isn't just about the asana is it? I learnt more about deep meditation, and as I do so, my inner child of happiness seems to be growing everyday, it's about that connection! Of course I wish people are less asana focused, and look at the other limbs of yoga, it's so important! Anyway, great to hear from u again!

If you come to Paris, you can teach at Rasa Yoga (lot of international teachers go there like Cat Alip-Douglas, Biff mithoefer, Sarah Powers, Maryam Askari, Mika De Brito...). The room is full of light and the people there are really sweet ! Or the Studio Keller. There are also a lot of others wonderful places you can book (like Dojos). We have lot of options to welcome you in Paris :D

Hi Tara! I live near Paris, I just start practise yoga thanks to your videos. And I'm already seeing a lot of benefits starting with my behaviour towards food. So thank you ! If you can tell us where you will be doing yoga in Paris that will be so cool, I will be so excited to be able to do it with you and talk to you ! :)

Question about yoga...One of my legs is longer than the other and I find that when I do certain poses (warrior 3) I never feel evenly relaxed or stretched...any advice? It really crushes my hopes of getting better at yoga and makes me want to give up at times...please offer some advice. Thank you!

YES, and yes - 'When diet is aligned with a powerful yoga sequence, both men and women develop a radiant inner light, clear eyes and skin, excellent muscle tone, and happiness. It purifies on all levels, amplifying attractiveness and bringing grace to body, mind and soul.'

I live in Paris but practice yoga at home with this is yoga.my schedule is impossible so this is easier for me. I would be thrilled to attend a class guided by you person. Ur truly an inspiration and thanks to u I am able to do things I thought I could not do. Luv

I just did my first meditation this morning because I'm embarking on a new project that is creating busy, frenzy brain, and I needed to calm it down! Plus, yoga is calming, and I love to read. Also know you have a super fan in Nashville if you ever make it here!

I'm currently staying in Gili Trawangan, and relaxation is easy in this beautiful place. Lots of love to you from far away =) (Back home, I relax with my Yoga practice, cycling, chopping vegetables or spending time with my loved one.)

i need some ideas on how to chill out at the end of the day. is there a good 'meditation' like program for beginners or something i can start with? you look really good. super cute and healthy appearance!

Also, I love the way you create controversy in the fact that you don't think that Yoga needs to be connected to a religion. I love that you don't use the long ancient Yoga names for the positions.

I was just wondering what you do to stay fit aside from yoga? I am yoga obsessed, but wondering if that is enough. To relax I do yoga, art, write, read, and go for walks and hikes.

I get some time for stretches amongst all the other things I do in my life,could you do a video of some essential and easy moves that a cyclist could benefit from? Much thanks!

I do yoga, drink tea, read, draw, and go outside (when it's warm):) we go to the beach every year and we are going on a small vacation soon to a road race my mo's in.=)

I chose to go to Tulum for my (non traditional) bachelorette party. It was an amazing long weekend filled with sun, beach, green juice & YOGA! A great way to unwind!

And YAY to Russia, too, I've got toooo excited about CT and now I am super-duper excited that you are going to Russia, that is amazing, I should let my friends know

I just moved to Paris, and I'm having a hard time finding a yoga studio I like so please keep us posted on places you like here! And PLEASE come teach Strala YES!

Ohhh If you ever come to Paris I'd do anything to get there for your class ! I adore you and your attitude, let us know when you come pleeeease :) bisous! Kate

Anyone including tara have any suggestions to get me started in teaching yoga? I live in southeast wi and I haven't heard of any place that does training

Hey Tara, thank you for sharing. To relaxe I knit :-) I love knitting. I just started a yoga class so I am learning to relax with young and mediating .

do you have your travel schedule posted anywhere? I live in Germany and I would love to come to one of your classes if it's not too far away!

I don't live in Paris, i live in the south of France (Toulouse) but I would LOVE if you came and would go to Paris ;) that would be so cool

I know she is coming to the OM Yoga Show in October :) It was great to meet her last years, cannot wait to attend her classes again :)

Tara you have great skin, are you wearing any makeup or a specific moisturizer? Or is it just because you're so healthy? Thanks

hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to uncover yoga instructor certification online try Hopandar Instruct Yoga Helper (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate got cool success with it.

Well put though.

You can make a decent living, but as it is in all careers, it's all up to how determined and hardworking you are.

+cannyyogapet "authenticity"

+Anvita Patwardhan Don't forget about terrible sitcoms.

+Rantandreason Welcome to Murica!

+Omar Jaffrey it is art brother, chill! You are correct. but how do you feel? every part can not be your favorite.

+Danny Vazquez Looks like white people are not only boring, but unable to take a joke.What is the main audience for "Frozen"? John Green? Taylor Swift? Anything else extremely cookie cutter? White people. No wonder they come to us for inspiration when they're out of ideas.

Moving forward and through "Globalization." I hope the collective perception would be increasingly united and understanding our shared humanity and watch these arbitrary divisions erode and fall apart.

Being considered the "norm" doesn't mean the culture is nonexistent. If anything, that would make it the most prevalent and pervasive.But I'd point outl that it's really only the "norm" in the United States, and other countries where the majority is white. Traveling around the world, you'd naturally find that it isn't the case. And while "white culture" is a slippery phrase, Western culture is certainly a "thing." Undeniably.I don't find Aristotle, Socrates, Plato boring. Alexander the Great. Julius Caesar. Henry Ford. Thomas Jefferson. Ben Franklin. Albert Einstein. Coca Cola. John F. Kennedy. Basketball, Baseball (ok I find baseball boring), football, association football (soccer) (invented in England), hockey (love hockey), not to mention music, Beethoven, the Beatles, thousands of others. Actors, artists, etc. boring at all. And thanks to innovators, many (most?) of whom are "white" or western, bill gates and steve jobs and the people who layed the groundwork of the internet before them for the technology like I'm using now to communicate with you.Personally, I think it's little silly to think of these accomplishments and contributions to humanity in terms of the "race" of the individuals who produced them.From a larger perspective, we're all humans. And we should feel as proud of an achievement or innovation or artistic contribution from a "white" or "black" or "hispanic" or "asian" or "mixed" or "what have you" person as any other. Because at the end of the day they're human achievements. But if you want to divide and categorize, one must give credit where is due."Western Civ" has done a lot of bad, and a lot of great for humanity. And its existence is undeniable.  There is no lack of culture there. And it is certainly not boring.You've spoken to a very limited and particularly american racial perspective.

+Danny Vazquez Sure. White people don't put seasoning on their food because they're bland. White people don't have culture so they take ours. Get the picture? I'm only half-joking.Now to explain the joke: whiteness is considered by society to be the "norm" or "default," and thus, boring.

+Anvita Patwardhan there's no such thing as Western culture? Could you elaborate?

If Westerners "re-appropriated" their shit, that would be great. Essentially the undoing of colonialism. Go for it. +Rantandreason

+Rantandreason I love how you list a bunch of things that westerners didn't create. We can't appropriate your culture because you have none. It would be called assimilation, not appropriation.

Yo none of the the things you mentioned, cars etc are cultural appropriations, they are comodaties created due to the culmination of generations of scientific, mathematical and machnical thought from all over the world spanning millennia. These people are fanatics but they have a point. Don't buy into the lululemon bull, find out what yoga is really about, Indian or otherwise. Also it's hilarious listening to Indians culturally appropriating African American activist rhetoric.

Then you figured wrong. Fair would be both sides debating honestly. An ad hominem is a personal attack on one's opponent. A straw man is choosing an opponent's argument for them—which usually has nothing to do with anything that person really said. One person can hurl insults and still make a valid argument about the topic at hand. If the other responds to points that were never made; I fail to see what's fair about that. My admittedly bad behavior aside: if my actual argument is wrong, tell me why.. We've gone back and forth here, and for some reason, you still refuse to do that.

Show me where anyone claimed to own yoga exclusively. I see your multiculturalism slur and raise you your straw man logical fallacy. You're certainly living up (down?) the "rant" part of your user name. Now try the reason part. This should be good.

+Rantandreason "Chick" and "butthurt"?Ah, you're an Ivy League graduate, no doubt. I'm sorry. I missed the part where Roopa criticized a non Desi for just teaching yoga. It was how the lady seemed to approach teaching that she satirized. At least that's what I saw.It's been my experience that you're much better at something if you try to understand and appreciate its history and culture. If you wanted to be a great blues guitarist, but all you've ever done was copy the Rolling Stones; and never even heard of Howlin' Wolf or Muddy Waters—how good can you really get? If, for some reason, I wanted to learn to play the bagpipes, I'd learn about Scottish history and culture. I wouldn't throw around Scots Gaelic words I didn't really understand and could barely pronounce. It's not just “shit I like so I wanna do it”. It's about respect. If that yoga teacher couldn't even get the Sanskrit right, then she didn't really respect the practice. If she didn't really respect the practice, she might be good but she'll never be great..But that's just me. I'm just an anchor baby savage You're the defender of Western Civilization. Because threatening to take your toys and go home is obviously the mark of a superior, rational mind.

The defensiveness here is clear and unnecessary. To be clear, this is never about taking back yoga. It is about knowing and doing yoga for what it is. In addition, all the creations you have mentioned are never to be considered purely western. They are multi-cultural creations and are shared with the western as they are shared with the rest of the world. None of us is an expert, those of us who grew up in South Asian diasporic families and homes tend to already understand this, which is why encountering so many self-professed "yoga experts" and "yoga masters" in the commercialized yoga site is disturbing.  

Great Video! Thank you for posting it. We are also in the same field. Our training program focuses on developing your ability to provide pregnant women with a fun, effective and safe yoga class throughout every stage of their pregnancy. 

hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to learn about yoga instructor certification online try Hopandar Instruct Yoga Helper ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.

What a beautiful yoga sequence. I watched this a long day of work. I floated gracefully into bliss thank you Suzanne! You were wonderful. like a gentle breeze flowing through the trees on this late summer eve.

I have taught for a year and I just did this video with her before bed! What a wonderful class and she executed it beautifully. Her knowledge and personality were a joy to share in!

Great video. I am a yoga instructor in India. This clip will greatly benefit me to introduce some new vinyasa in my class. Thanks for uploading.

Great video clip. I love to be in a class with her and do great yoga there. Thanks for posting a incredible video.

Hi Dashama !!! Thanks for the video, the sequence was great, I will practice this one this morning...Namaste xxx

Great teacher!

request and pray, enemities,quarrels ,old evil (bhudhi) intelligence of sins like vengeances, kama (so far which are the cause for every bad happenings ),enemities to destroy,spoiling others, hates for others all bad wisedom, bad evil thoughts, be change to good & noble and betterment for others, intelligence not commiting sins and not doing bad for others,and to save every soul ,grand soul, humans ,balas in back bones ,kundlani power ,every molecules of humans and creatures

For those who may be interested in spiritual (traditional) yoga there are 2 good articles for starting yoga from an advanced and honest practicioner in my opinion.Anyway,let everyone decide for themselves. forums.vsociety.net/index.php/topic,12925.0.html forums.vsociety.net/index.php/topic,13387.0.html

Practice, do what you can, and gradually increase as much as you can, its more quality pranayama, over quality. With practice you can activate the processes that pranayama activates with speed instead of sitting for hours.

Just do as much as comfortable, it's more important to do it everyday. You'll notice a difference in a couple weeks. You can also start by lying on your back knees bent with your feet on the floor, for the first month.

Amazing, I respect him so much! He is a powerhouse, and I know I'll never be on his level, but it's good to know it can be reached! Thank you for posting this video! Namaste.

I wonder if the 3 hour pranayam can be done spread out through out the day or must it be a full 3 hour sit down? its hard for me to sit even for 30 mins everyday and do it :)

call me dumb but i didnt quite understand what he meant with the practice. Does he mean practice every day for 5mins for one week? or practice 5mins 10mins 30mins and so on?

request and pray ---every human every soul either good or bad ,angle or evil ,sinner,demon , god or devil every one want to live as a good humanbeing --please save

The pranayamas Swami Sundaranand mentions at the end "..." are kumbhaka & rechakha...ie: holding the inhalation & holding the exhalation for as long as possible

he explained the method, the best one is allways the one who make´s you feel better, but that only you can say .

at the end of the video which pranayams did he mention were the best, i couldnt catch what he was saying

@Jcolinsol On the contrary, his words are extraordinarily vivid.

Thank you very much for sharing these wonderful videos...

He's having such a hard time articulating what he means.

@Jcolinsol english probably isn't his main language.

Which pranayama is he referring to? Anyone knows?

Thank you very much yuefei91!!! Be well!

@biggmoneyme And that's probably why.

A master in true sense

This is great :)

thank you.

I thought that may be i was missing something by not doing upayoga,angamardhana etc but sadhguru himself told that he practised nothing else but asanas and it continues to keep him in good shape even noe ... AWESOME ..

you could still join the program. it will start at the 7th of july, 2012 I think,, a phenomenal opportunity

There is no mention of fees charged for this 3 month program. Can Isha people please advise on this?

WHEN SADHGURU COMES TO MIAMI FLORIDA????

anyone know the cost for this program?

I have missed listening to Sadhguru.

thanks GURUJI.......

TRUE MASTERS MASTER.

Beautiful...

Thanks Cindy!
