Why Three Weeks ?
With almost 15 Years of experience in conducting the 200hr Yoga Teacher Training Courses in rishikesh india for the duration of four weeks, as a Yoga school we discovered many things. In all of these discoveries one thing was common and that was the collective downfall of group's energy level, especially as we approach the fourth week. We observed that it's really very difficult for most of the participants to maintain the disciplined presence in all the scheduled classes for the four weeks and they start missing the important sessions.
We do understand that practicing and learning Yoga almost 8-10 hours a Day is not an easy task, on top the amount of information is too big and they need time to digest all of it. As we know that Yoga not only challenges the practitioners physically but emotionally & spiritually as well. In this scenario it becomes even more challenging for the participants to maintain the same level of curiosity & enthusiasm for the duration of Four weeks and they get disoriented. All of this happens because in 200hr Yoga TTC, most of the participants are beginners and they haven't developed a sense of regularity and discipline in their practice yet. So the Management of Rishikesh Yogpeeth has decided to do it for three weeks, which is a perfect duration, neither too long nor too short.
