I have run many 200 hour YTT and pregnancy trainings and the most common question I get asked by students considering enrolling is to do with the level of their asana practice. This is a challenging question to answer. A lthough yoga teachers do need to know an asana well in order for it to be taught safely, the practice of yoga asana is such a small part of yoga. So, placing all of one’s focus on this does not do the practice of yoga justice, or give the student credit if they are proficient in another aspect of yoga such as meditation. There are so many other elements to consider when thinking of becoming a yoga teacher.
