Usually, the 1st thing students notice after the 1st class are the effects of deep relaxation, calmness and peace of mind.
Little by little, with practice, the students develop more self-awareness and they begin to notice whether they are holding any tension in their body and learn how to release these tensions.
As one progresses in the practice of Satyananda Yoga one becomes aware of the conditioning of the mind and becomes aware of one’s thought patters. With this ‘self-knowledge’ one can begin to step outside the ‘reaction mode’ that so many of us reside in and begin to work towards a more conscious self and develop a yogic lifestyle.
Sometimes referred to as the yoga of ‘head, heart and hands’, Satyananda Yoga is an integral yoga which incorporates Hatha, Raja, Karma, Jnana, Mantra, and Bhakti Yoga.
Satyananda Yoga teachers are trained to the highest standard with over 500 hours training hours and with regular in-service training and assessment. The teaching diploma is recognised by Yoga Federation Ireland (YFI) and the British Wheel of Yoga (BWY). These qualifications are approved and recognised worldwide.
