Teacher Apprenticeship

2020 & 2021 Apprenticeships

We are no longer accepting applications for the 2019 apprenticeship.  The next apprenticeship program will begin in 2021.  Ramdas is accepting applications for 4 individual apprentices in 2020.  Please call or text 801-251-6242 for details.

Are you passionate about yoga?  Have you thought about becoming a yoga teacher or considered teacher training?  Are you an aspiring yoga teacher looking to explore the depth of yoga?  Are you an established yoga teacher looking to give your students more than just another exercise class?  You’re the perfect candidate for a Bhakti House Teacher Apprenticeship!

What is the Teacher Apprenticeship?  It’s a year-long apprenticeship (see the schedule below) that pairs you with one of our established teachers.  That teacher will be your personal mentor through the apprenticeship.

Unlike typical teacher training courses, on completing your apprenticeship, you will join the Bhakti House teaching staff.  You’ll be certified to teach introductory classes, guide Yoga Nidra sessions and lead advanced yoga classes.

You will be eligible to register with Yoga Alliance as an RYT-500, Yoga Alliance’s highest designation for new teachers.

We are only accepting 10 apprentice teachers for 2019.  Submit your application today or click the topics below to learn more.

What Is Amrit Yoga?
Yogi Desai designed Amrit Yoga to reveal the inner spiritual depth of yoga that is so often lacking in modern yoga classes.

The Level 1 practice, known as Posture of Consciousness, combines familiar yoga poses with inward focus and meditative awareness.  This experience merges the physical benefits of Hatha Yoga and the meditative depths of Raja Yoga.  The Posture of Consciousness relies on a set script and is ideal for both beginning yogis and those with years of experience.  The practical effect of this practice breaks your reactive habits.

Amrit Yoga Nidra is designed as more than a relaxation technique.  It’s a meditation technique that not only relaxes the body, but creates a different relationship with stress producing thoughts and emotions.  It’s designed to guide the practitioner to recognize the silent place of being that always resides within us.  The Amrit Method focuses on quieting the mind and boosting the energy flow in the body (prana).  This released energy in the body increases the healing potential available during meditation and takes practitioners into deep states of meditation more quickly.  The practical effect of this practice trains the mind to rest and be still.

The Level 2 practice, known as Meditation in Motion, is a natural evolution for dedicated practitioners who have experienced profound shifts in life and are ready for new depths.  While the Posture of Consciousness relies on a set script, Meditation in Motion refines a student’s ability to feel the movement of energy in the body.  This releases long held tensions and emotional leftovers.  The practical effect of this practice allows one to move with life rather than having to fight against it.
