We at Adi Yoga Ashram offer students a combo course of 200-hour yoga teacher training with 85-hour aerial yoga teacher training; this combination of long and short terms program is for students who want to learn and explore the new style of Aerial yoga without investing additional days. The idea is simple: you keep learning about the traditional subjects such as Hatha, Pranayama, meditation, etc with the additional knowledge of how to perform the posture using the aerial hammock.
How do we manage it? Simple: the schedule during the 200-hour yoga teacher training program utilises the whole day in general, because classes run from 5 am in the morning to 6 pm in the evening. But there are breaks in the middle for self-study or rest. During this program, we utilise these available slots. So basically you learn about both styles side by side from day one. What you may learn in this program, you may ask?. There are two major classes of aerial which you will attend: one is aerial yoga asana practice, in which you will learn how to perform the postures and sequqncing and other is dedicated aerial yoga anatomy, in which you will learn how your body moves in this practice.
The 85 hour progam is a short term program, so the classes will finish early in the middle of the month. So once your aerial program is finished, the available slots you were using to learn aerial yoga will be free, so you can utilise that time for rest or do self-study.
We know that a typical 200-hour program covers the traditional practice such as Hatha Yoga or Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and more, but in Aerial yoga you will learn something completely new; you will learn about the poses, how to perform them safely, how to use the hammock to enter and exit from the asana, you will cover the transitions between poses, flips, inversion and more.
This combo course is useful for students who want a strong foundation in traditional yoga and also want to add aerial yoga as an additional teaching skill. It is an active schedule, so students should come ready for longer training days, but the structure allows them to complete both courses in one visit without needing to return separately for aerial yoga.
