如何選擇瑜伽教練培訓(xùn)的十條建議

1、The 10 Commandments of Finding The Right Yoga Teacher TrainingShakti Mhi關(guān)于如何選擇瑜伽教師培訓(xùn)的十條勸誡1. Find a Spiritual Teacher.選擇一個(gè)靈性的教師Avoid taking training from teachers that emphasize their teaching on the physical aspects of yoga only. It is important to have a teacher who can give you a full understandin

2、g of the spiritual (as opposed to religious) aspects of yoga. The teacher should not be a scholar who knows his/her information from reading books and taking workshops. The teachers teaching must arise from direct experience. Such a teacher will be able to deal with all of the spiritual concerns tha

3、t the student may have, with no hesitation.不要從那些只強(qiáng)調(diào)身體層面的瑜伽教師那里接受培訓(xùn)。去找一個(gè)能向你傳授瑜伽完整的靈性意義（但不是宗教）的教師，這點(diǎn)非常重要。那個(gè)教師也不應(yīng)該是一個(gè)只會(huì)引經(jīng)據(jù)典的書齋里的學(xué)者。教師所傳授的應(yīng)該來(lái)自他本人直接的體驗(yàn)。這樣的教 師才能面對(duì)學(xué)生有可能遇見的所有靈性的問題，而不是支吾其詞。2. Make sure to experience direct transmission.要得到直接的傳遞Do not settle for a teacher training run by novice teachers, who

4、 show the teachings of their master from a DVD. Do not settle for the said "master" to only occasionally appear in the course. Every student in the course needs to have direct contact and experience with the spiritual teacher, as the transmission of the knowledge and wisdom often happens o

5、n the energy level.不要接受那些沒有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的教師的培訓(xùn)，他們會(huì)把自己追隨的大師的DVD放給你看。也不要因?yàn)槁犝f(shuō)某個(gè)大師會(huì)“偶爾出現(xiàn)”在培訓(xùn)的課程中而受吸引。每個(gè)學(xué)生都應(yīng)該和一個(gè)靈性的教師有直接的接觸和體驗(yàn)，因?yàn)橹R(shí)和智慧往往是在能量層面?zhèn)鬟f的。3. Bigger is not better.教師培訓(xùn)并不是人越多越好Often you see teacher training with 60 to 200 students in a course.我們經(jīng)?？吹侥承┙處熍嘤?xùn)會(huì)有60200人。In an intense 200h course, as a result of the

6、intense practice, students often go through physical, mental, emotional and spiritual crisis and may face multiple challenges. As a result of being in a large impersonal course, the student and their needs get lost in the crowd.在一個(gè)強(qiáng)度很大的200小時(shí)培訓(xùn)中，學(xué)生經(jīng)常會(huì)經(jīng)歷生理的、頭腦的、情緒的和靈性方面的危機(jī)并同時(shí)面對(duì)諸多的挑戰(zhàn)。在一個(gè)人數(shù)眾多、缺乏個(gè)人關(guān)注的培訓(xùn)中

7、，學(xué)生和他們的個(gè)人需求都無(wú)法得到滿足。4. Avoid religions, cults and worship.避開宗教、信眾和崇拜Avoid trainings with even a hint of worshipping the spiritual teacher. Yoga practice is a process to transform the novice to become a free master and not to become a sheep, following without knowing.避開那些暗示你去崇拜那個(gè)靈性教師的培訓(xùn)。瑜伽練習(xí)是一個(gè)把初習(xí)者轉(zhuǎn)變成

8、解脫的大師的過程，而不是把你培養(yǎng)成人云亦云的綿羊。5. Practical teaching.要練習(xí)如何授課Make sure there is plenty of actual hands-on teaching experience for you during the course so you dont end up with theoretical knowledge but are unprepared to actually teach. Knowing the asanas (yoga postures) inside and out wont make you know ho

9、w to teach them. Yoga teacher training is not a yoga boot camp of doing the asanas all day. You need to learn communication, the psychology of the mind, body language, how to correct by using hands-on techniques, and how to give mental and energetic support to your students in the future.確保培訓(xùn)中會(huì)安排充分的

10、實(shí)際教學(xué)操作和練習(xí)，這樣在結(jié)束時(shí)你不是光有空洞的理 論知識(shí)，但對(duì)于如何實(shí)際授課卻一愁莫展。即便你了解了所有體式的細(xì)節(jié)，仍然不等于你知道如何去教授它們。瑜伽教師培訓(xùn)不應(yīng)該是一個(gè)整天練習(xí)體式的集訓(xùn)營(yíng)。 你需要學(xué)習(xí)如何交流、心理學(xué)、如何解讀肢體語(yǔ)言，如何親手去糾正，如何在將來(lái)給你的學(xué)生精神和能量上的支持。6. Yoga is not Gymnastics.瑜伽不是體操Remember that 90% of your students out there are beginners! Most of the people in the West are dealing with physical l

11、imitations and health conditions. Avoid vigorous acrobatic styles of yoga. Choose a style of yoga that can walk beginners safely into the practice. Otherwise you will join the endless number of yoga instructors who make the students feel (after their first class) that they are not flexible enough to

12、 practice yoga.別忘了百分之九十的學(xué)生是初習(xí)者！在西方很多人身體有各種局限和健康問題。避開那些強(qiáng)烈的有氧操式的瑜伽。選擇學(xué)習(xí)一種能讓初習(xí)者安全地進(jìn)入練習(xí)的風(fēng)格。否則你將成為那些數(shù)不勝數(shù)的瑜伽教練的一員學(xué)生一上完他們的第一堂課就下結(jié)論說(shuō)自己太僵硬了，不適合練習(xí)瑜伽。7. Restrict yoga facility.不要依賴瑜伽設(shè)施和工具Avoid styles that constrict you and your students to a specific teaching facility environment (hot rooms or facilities with

13、too many yoga gadgets). The essence of yoga practice is to be able to conduct it in any place and at any time. Your students should be able to take the teaching you convey and practice on their own anywhere without dependency on a facility.避開那些只有在特定教學(xué)設(shè)施（熱的房間或過多的瑜伽輔助物品）條件下才能練習(xí)的瑜伽風(fēng)格。瑜伽練習(xí)的本質(zhì)是應(yīng)該能隨時(shí)隨地地進(jìn)行

14、。你的學(xué)生應(yīng)該在接受了你所傳遞的教導(dǎo)后，能夠自己在任何地方練習(xí)，而不是得依賴某些設(shè)施。8. New-age yoga.不要落入“新世紀(jì)”瑜伽的迷霧Be careful of flakiness and new-age non sense.小心所有那些有關(guān)“新世紀(jì)”的魚龍混雜的學(xué)說(shuō)。Knowledge of energy and the chakras is powerful, but there is much more to the yoga practice than just the chakras.有關(guān)能量和氣輪的知識(shí)是很有力量的，但在氣輪以外瑜伽還有很多其他內(nèi)容。9. Connect

15、ion with the teacher after course is done.在培訓(xùn)結(jié)束和教師繼續(xù)保持連接Make sure that the teacher will be available to you to answer questions after the course has ended and to guide you in your first steps of your teaching if needed. You should be able to find spiritual support from your teacher outside the cours

16、e as your practice must continue after your certification.確保在培訓(xùn)結(jié)束后你仍然有機(jī)會(huì)向教師提問，如果需要的話甚至能幫助你踏上開始教課的道路。你應(yīng)該能夠在培訓(xùn)以后繼續(xù)從你的教師那里得到靈性的支持，即便你已經(jīng)有了證書。10. The power of transformation.轉(zhuǎn)變的力量Let your heart, not only your mind and wallet, be involved in the search for the right teacher and teaching. Avoid being influenced by trends and deals. The teacher is the vehicle for the tea
