It is a truly insightful and empowering course designed not only to impart techniques of teaching Yoga but also to facilitate the learner to begin his/her own journey of self-awareness and development.
A certificate program that is rewarding and enriching and will be conducted by Om Shiva Yoga, Singapore.
STRUCTURE OF YICC
It is based on more than 20 years of in-depth study in the field of Yoga and Spirituality by sVYASA. Research behind YICC largely follows the direction given by Swami Vivekananda, who pronounced that we need to combine the best of the West (modern scientific research) with the best of the East (yoga and spiritual lore) to bring a grand harmony and peace on earth.
The objective of conducting this program, throughout the world, is to bring the holistic vision of yoga and spiritual lore as a way of life dominated by health & strength, peace and efficiency, harmony and growth; to solve the problems of the modern society and to build ideal social orders.
