1. Will there be a final examination at the end of the course? Written/practical?

The 200hr Holistic Yoga Therapy Training in Bali is a combination of our Level 1, 2, & 3 Bodywork; our Level 1, 2, & 3 Yoga Therapies; plus a 200hr Yoga Alliance certification.  

The Yoga Alliance requirements are only that you attend the specific amount of hours in each subject; which will be covered through your attendance in the entire course. Our curriculum requires examination for each level, in order to receive the full qualification. Some is written and some is practical. Each level also requires home evolutions to be handed in if you want to have the highest ratings, showing that you have been able to apply the system in the real world with clients. 

 

​

2. Will we get a certification directly after the Training to take home?

You will receive a "completion certificate" for each of the 6 modules which are covered in this training, and a certificate for the full 200hr; which can be used for Yoga Alliance. In total, you will receive 7 certificates, and with the yoga alliance qualification, you will be able to practice and receive insurance straight after the training. If however, you wish to be "fully certified" by ThaiVedic, you will need to show you have been able to use the knowledge with clients outside the training by going through the process we refer to as the "Healers Evolution Program". If you hand in the "Healers Evolutions" for each module, which is both practical and written, you will then receive feedback from the teacher and a "certified certificate" for that module. Some of the Gold Medallion modules will require a certain amount of hours, not just a one-off application of the system. Students are displayed on the ThaiVedic Practitioner directory according to their medallion ranking. We have chosen this system of grading because we know that 200hrs does not make an experienced healer and so we will prioritise the most experienced ThaiVedic therapists in each part of the world to represent the ThaiVedic community and our system. In the long-term, this will benefit all people involved in the ThaiVedic community, regardless of their level of qualification, because those experienced therapists will be creating the reputation for us all.

3. Do we need to bring any books or do we get manuals at the training?

We will provide manuals with all necessary information and a pdf of these manuals is available for pre-reading. There is also recommended reading for those students who wish to go deeper into certain areas. Please choose from the recommended reading list based on your weakness. ThaiVedic is a holistic system and as such a little bit of knowledge in all areas will allow you to be more effective. Example areas of knowledge include Anatomy, Thai Massage, Ayurveda, Yoga Therapies etc. Please visit this page to see the full list of recommended readings.

 

​

4. What does the daily schedule look like?

The daily schedule runs Monday through Saturday, with Sundays off. The daily schedule generally runs from sunrise until sunset, as we would like to align with the Vedic time clock. The schedule may vary, depending upon the flow of the training, as well as the needs of the group. Class schedule is approximately: Sunrise to 8 A.M, followed by group breakfast. Next class 9.30 A.M. -12.30 P.M, followed by group lunch and free time. The last class will be held from 3 - 6 P.M. and followed by group dinner.

 

​

5. Are there any pre-requisites to join this training?

Ideally, participants would have a minimum of two years regular yoga practice, as you will be better prepared for this intensive training. This is also so students can also get the most out of the training. For a full list of pre-requisites of the training, please head over to this page.

 

​

6. What’s the maximum number of students that can enrol in the training?

We can only accept 26 students every year for the 200hr Yoga Therapies Training Bali, as we would like to make it intimate, intensive, and be able to provide every student with support.  Because of this limited number, our training has always been fully booked.

 

​

7. Is there any payment plan for the course? I think I will have difficulty affording the course in addition to flights to Bali.

A payment plan is possible. As all profits of the course are shared evenly by our teachers; it may be difficult to have all teachers agree to have your fees deducted from their share until a later date. The immediate solution to this is that we will prioritise students who can make a full commitment through paying the full amount, and if there is any spots left on the course, then we can talk with the other teachers regarding a payment plan.

 

​

8. What happens if I pay now, and become ill next year? Is it possible to get the money back?

Due to the logistics required for planning an International Yoga Teacher Training, we apply a refund policy as calculated below (exclude the 10% non-refundable deposit):

Notification received more than 60 days prior to the training: 70% fee refunded minus US$ 100 administration fee*

Notification received 31-60 days prior to the training: 50% fee refunded minus US$ 100 administration fee*

​

Please note in extreme circumstances we are open to discussion; we care about your health and your education. In such circumstances we could also consider moving you to a later training based on availability. 

 

In the unlikely event that the Teacher Training gets cancelled, the cost of the course you paid will be fully refunded*. 

​
