The Spark of Light yoga teacher training in the Netherlands is acknowledged by Yoga Alliance. When you succesfully complete the training, you can register at Yoga Alliance as yogateacher (200RYT). This way, you can take out insurance as a yoga teacher and can you work as a yoga teacher at home and abroad. Non-dualistic tradition This yoga course is based on the tradition of nondual shaivism. That is, the rich tantric tradition that formed the basis of hatha yoga. It is a path of awakening that ultimately leads to liberation. This means (learning to) honoring and celebrating life because everything is an expression of the Divine and strengthen the Light Within. You are encouraged to not only deepen your knowledge and practice of the asanas, pranayama, bandhas and mudras, but also learn and embody the nondual philosophy and experience the power of the working of the mind. In the yoga teacher training, you learn how your beliefs and thoughts are connected with emotions. And you put into practice gaining freedom of thought; the ultimate goal of yoga. The working of the mind is described in the ancient scriptures and in the Spark of Light Yoga Teacher Training it is made accessible with the help of contemporary neuroscience. The yoga practice will be adjusted to the needs of your body and you also learn as a teacher how to adapt poses to your students, so you can give safe and professional yoga lessons and know how to prevent possible injuries. During the training, you will also practice a lot as a teacher to your fellow-students, as teaching is one of the best ways of learning.
