Diploma Program for 200hr Certified Teachers

TUESDAY, 27 MARCH 2007

The ancient tradition of passing the knowledge and wisdom of yoga from a senior teacher to a student continues at Prana Yoga Teacher College. Founded in 1982 by Shakti Mhi, a world-renowned Yoga and Zen Teacher, seminar leader and author of the best selling yoga DVD "The Yoga Experience", the program is deeply rooted in classical hatha yoga. It is arguably the most effective and unique program of its kind available anywhere, utilizing the latest in audiovisual multi media learning and infused with Shakti’s legendary boundless energy and sharp wit.

Described as being "profound, experiential and transformational", with covered topics ranging from ancient knowledge to quantum physics, the program is now sought after by students from around the globe. Much more than just learning the asanas (postures), Shakti’s focus is to teach the students to connect to the Source of the teaching within themselves. The Source that cannot be shown or explained, but only experienced.
