Have you ever wanted to join a yoga school?
There can be many different reasons why someone would register to a yoga institute. Their reasons may be different and personal in nature but a yoga teacher training should always be thought of as an inward journey.
There are a number of benefits and reasons to take part in a yoga course at a yoga school. I thought I’d write a few down.
* You learn proper alignment of poses
Every person learns differently. Some are more visual and some are more auditory.
In a yoga class, you will learn according to your brain. You will learn proper alignment and do efficiently on your yoga mat.
* You will receive physical assists during your practice
Your teacher will give you hands-on assists while you’re in many of the poses. When you feel uncomfortable, you should tell your teacher and he will assist you.
* You can learn how to modify poses in a way that is unique to your body
When we opt for modifications, our body is better supported. These modifications help you build poses properly. An expert can help with these modifications. These also help if you are injured but still want to practice.
* You can deepen your physical practice
This goes without saying. The longer practice sessions under the supervision of an expert and proper alignment of yoga poses will help take your practice to a whole new level.
You will work on more challenging poses and sequences. You will spend some time delving into different elements of yoga philosophy during your practice sessions. This is also a good chance to try postures you never dreamed you would be able to.

You will find new people and know about them day by day. These include your fellow students, teachers, and your yoga community. These people will most likely become your yoga family with whom you will be connected long even after the finish of your yoga course.
From our experience, the people you meet in the course of yoga training will be your spiritual family who will support you on your journey.
* You can ask your questions
It is a very effective way to learn. You can ask your questions on the spot as you’re in a pose. This is very different from just learning from YouTube or from CDs.
