My best advice is to decide what you are looking for in yoga. There are more athletic styles like ashtanga or vinyasa and you have calmer practices like yin or restorative. You can also find some more spiritual styles like for example kundalini.
Once you know more or less what you would like, try it out. In my opinion, the teacher is more important that the style that you choose. Every teacher will bring his /her personnality and own style in their class.

Yoga teacher training classes offer numerous benefits for individuals who wish to deepen their practice and share the gift of yoga with others. Here are some key benefits of attending yoga teacher training:

  1. Deepening your understanding of yoga: Yoga teacher training provides an in-depth exploration of yoga philosophy, anatomy, asanas (poses), pranayama (breathing techniques), meditation, and more. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the principles and foundations of yoga, enabling you to develop a more meaningful and holistic practice.
  2. Enhancing your personal practice: Immersing yourself in a yoga teacher training program allows you to dedicate focused time and energy to your own practice. You'll have the opportunity to refine your alignment, explore advanced postures, deepen your breath awareness, and expand your meditation practice. This can lead to personal growth, increased self-awareness, and a stronger connection to your body, mind, and spirit.
  3. Building a solid foundation: Yoga teacher training provides a solid foundation for teaching yoga effectively and safely. You'll learn proper alignment techniques, modifications, and adjustments for various poses, as well as how to sequence classes intelligently. Understanding the principles of anatomy and physiology will help you guide students to practice in a way that supports their unique bodies.
  4. Developing teaching skills: Yoga teacher training equips you with the knowledge and skills to effectively lead yoga classes. You'll learn how to create a safe and inclusive space for students, cue poses with clarity, offer modifications and variations, provide hands-on adjustments, and develop effective class themes and sequences. You'll also explore teaching methodologies, communication techniques, and the art of creating a balanced and engaging class.
  5. Fostering self-confidence: Through practice teaching and receiving feedback from instructors and peers, yoga teacher training helps you build self-confidence as a yoga teacher. As you refine your teaching skills, you'll develop a sense of assurance in sharing your knowledge and guiding students through their yoga journey.
  6. Joining a supportive community: Yoga teacher training often creates a sense of community and connection among participants. You'll have the opportunity to meet like-minded individuals, build friendships, and share experiences. This supportive network can provide ongoing encouragement, collaboration, and inspiration as you continue your yoga journey.
  7. Opening up new opportunities: Completing a yoga teacher training program allows you to become a certified yoga teacher, opening up opportunities to teach yoga classes at studios, gyms, retreats, or privately. You can also choose to integrate your yoga knowledge and skills into other professions, such as healthcare, wellness coaching, or holistic therapy.

It's important to choose a yoga teacher training program that aligns with your goals, values, and interests. Look for programs that are accredited by reputable yoga organizations and led by experienced and knowledgeable instructors.
