THE THREE MAIN ASPECTS FOR AGNI's 2020 ONLINE TRAINING
1. Commitment to an at home meditation, asana and Kriya Yoga practice.
This centers around the theme for each module. Each practice can take from 90 minutes – 2 1/2 hours, depending on how it is approached. Extensive and detailed notes, photos, drawings, videos, meditations and reflections are sent out a few days before each retreat day, so that the new material can be studied and embodied .
Please remember that Yoga is best practiced in a clean, silent, sacred space, and after group Zoom classes, turning off the internet for Self- practice is highly recommended!
2. Live, online teachings, claases & meditations
* Alternate Saturdays 9am ( meditation session ) and AGNI Retreat days from 10am – 5:30 pm PST
Short pauses are given to relax and refresh. Classesare archived so that students can review any missed classes.
* A minimum of 2 weekly live or online Prana Mandir Yoga classes or workshops including :
Wednesday 2pm PST/ 5pm EST
Friday morning 9am PST/ 12Noon EST
* Dharma Talks
To keep developing insight and clarity during each current module, pre-recorded talks may include: guided meditations, short practices, methodologies for healing and Ayurveda, teachings on inner technology and esoteric philosophy, breath work and guidance for working Yoga with students and clients therapeutically!
.........................................................................................................................................................
3. HOMEWORK
Given for each module or theme, a minimum of 3 hours/week should be put aside for your AGNI homework. Some assignments are written and others are physical practices or contemplations, art projects, etc.

TO FULFILL AGNI CERTIFICATION IN YOGA AS THERAPY

We hope that in the near future, in-person classes will become more easily possible. (In Ojai, CA, Varanasi, India & other great destinations again!). In the past, online students have been able to come for classes and workshops in LA to complete their certification hours. (Additional fees will apply and tuition payments will be applied toward these.)
