What do people ask before enrolling on the Yoga Therapy?
Can I treat medical conditions after this?
No. Yoga therapy here is complementary wellness education, not a medical or clinical qualification. You learn to support general wellbeing and common lifestyle concerns, always alongside and never in place of care from a qualified doctor. Anyone with a medical condition should be referred appropriately.
Who is this course for, and are there prerequisites?
It is an advanced course, so prior yoga teaching experience or a strong, established practice is expected. Get in touch if you are unsure whether your background fits.
How is the course delivered?
Online over three months, in English and Hindi, with mentor support and lifetime access to recordings.
How is yoga therapy different from a general class?
It focuses on adapting practice to an individual's needs rather than teaching a group the same sequence. The emphasis is on safe, tailored support within a clearly defined scope.
Are there payment options?
EMI options are available to spread the cost, and you receive an NNWA certificate on completion.
