January 8 – April 8
The Yoga Development Course (YDC) is an intensive three-month program offering you both experience of the major branches of yoga as well as an opportunity for self-development. Swami Radha’s approach is based on helping people find their own innermost authority, so the emphasis in all of our courses is on personal reflection.
Study Swami Radha’s teachings in: Hidden Language Hatha Yoga®, Kundalini & Dream Yoga, The Divine Light Invocation, Mantra & Karma Yoga, Life Seals® or the Straight Walk®, Sacred Dance, and the Bhagavad Gita. This course offers in-depth exploration in groups, personal reflections and practices.
Cost: $7100, $750 deposit
The YDC is a prerequisite for all teacher training.
To help integrate the three-month indepth experience, we offer the opportunity for all YDC participants to stay at the Ashram for an additional 5 months at no charge to be active members of our karma yoga program.
The Yoga Development Course has helped me find my way home–to myself! I arrived in January having a real desire for peace and quiet and to immerse myself in a life of spirituality. The time here has been all that and more.
