Level Two Curriculum
Level 2 Curriculum is for those who have attended Level 1 Class or
those who have had sufficient yoga background. Most of you are already
familiar with the subtleties and nuances that underlie almost every
yoga pose. Becoming a yogi requires a lot of discipline on your part,
and you have learnt that already.
In Level 2 Curriculum, we will build up the knowledge and skills you
required from Level 1. After this class, you will be able to practice
yoga for yourself, as well as teach others the philosophy and other
aspects of various yoga poses. You will be aware of where you stand in
regards with religion, universe, humanity, modern science, and
spirituality.
If you are still interested, you can take our advanced level class.
Unless you want to be a teacher or gain a deep understanding of yoga,
you don't need to take this class. (More detail is available towards
the end of the semester.
