如何選擇瑜伽教練培訓的十條建議
10 Commandments of Finding The Right Yoga Teacher Training
——Shakti Mhi
關于如何選擇瑜伽教師培訓的十條勸誡
1. Find a Spiritual Teacher.
選擇一個靈性的教師
Avoid taking training from teachers that emphasize their teaching on the physical aspects of yoga only. It is important to have a teacher who can give you a full understanding of the spiritual (as opposed to religious) aspects of yoga. The teacher should not be a scholar who knows his/her information from reading books and taking workshops. The teacher’s teaching must arise from direct experience. Such a teacher will be able to deal with all of the spiritual concerns that the student may have, with no hesitation.
不要從那些只強調身體層面的瑜伽教師那里接受培訓。去找一個能向你傳授瑜伽完整的靈性意義(但不是宗教)的教師，這點非常重要。那個教師也不應該是一個只會引經據典的書齋里的學者。教師所傳授的應該來自他本人直接的體驗。這樣的教 師才能面對學生有可能遇見的所有靈性的問題，而不是支吾其詞。
2. Make sure to experience direct transmission.要得到直接的傳遞
Do not settle for a teacher training run by novice teachers, who show the teachings of their master from a DVD. Do not settle for the said "master" to only occasionally appear in the course. Every student in the course needs to have direct contact and experience with the spiritual teacher, as the transmission of the knowledge and wisdom often happens on the energy level.
不要接受那些沒有經驗的教師的培訓，他們會把自己追隨的大師的DVD放給你看。也不要因為聽說某個大師會“偶爾出現”在培訓的課程中而受吸引。每個學生都應該和一個靈性的教師有直接的接觸和體驗，因為知識和智慧往往是在能量層面傳遞的。
3. Bigger is not better.
教師培訓并不是人越多越好
Often you see teacher training with 60 to 200 students in a course.
我們經常看到某些教師培訓會有60～200人。
In an intense 200h course, as a result of the intense practice, students often go through physical, mental, emotional and spiritual crisis and may face multiple challenges. As a result of being in a large impersonal course, the student and their needs get lost in the crowd.
在一個強度很大的200小時培訓中，學生經常會經歷生理的、頭腦的、情緒的和靈性方面的危機并同時面對諸多的挑戰。在一個人數眾多、缺乏個人關注的培訓中，學生和他們的個人需求都無法得到滿足。
4. Avoid religions, cults and worship.
避開宗教、信眾和崇拜
Avoid trainings with even a hint of worshipping the spiritual teacher. Yoga practice is a process to transform the novice to become a free master and not to become a sheep, following without knowing.
避開那些暗示你去崇拜那個靈性教師的培訓。瑜伽練習是一個把初習者轉變成解脫的大師的過程，而不是把你培養成人云亦云的綿羊。
5. Practical teaching.
要練習如何授課
Make sure there is plenty of actual hands-on teaching experience for you during the course so you don’t end up with theoretical knowledge but are unprepared to actually teach. Knowing the asanas (yoga postures) inside and out won’t make you know how to teach them. Yoga teacher training is not a yoga boot camp of doing the asanas all day. You need to learn communication, the psychology of the mind, body language, how to correct by using hands-on techniques, and how to give mental and energetic support to your students in the future.
確保培訓中會安排充分的實際教學操作和練習，這樣在結束時你不是光有空洞的理 論知識，但對于如何實際授課卻一愁莫展。即便你了解了所有體式的細節，仍然不等于你知道如何去教授它們。瑜伽教師培訓不應該是一個整天練習體式的集訓營。 你需要學習如何交流、心理學、如何解讀肢體語言，如何親手去糾正，如何在將來給你的學生精神和能量上的支持。
6. Yoga is not Gymnastics.
瑜伽不是體操
Remember that 90% of your students out there are beginners! Most of the people in the West are dealing with physical limitations and health conditions. Avoid vigorous acrobatic styles of yoga. Choose a style of yoga that can walk beginners safely into the practice. Otherwise you will join the endless number of yoga instructors who make the students feel (after their first class) that they are not flexible enough to practice yoga.
別忘了百分之九十的學生是初習者!在西方很多人身體有各種局限和健康問題。避開那些強烈的有氧操式的瑜伽。選擇學習一種能讓初習者安全地進入練習的風格。否則你將成為那些數不勝數的瑜伽教練的一員——學生一上完他們的第一堂課就下結論說自己太僵硬了，不適合練習瑜伽。
7. Restrict yoga facility.
不要依賴瑜伽設施和工具
Avoid styles that constrict you and your students to a specific teaching facility environment (hot rooms or facilities with too many yoga gadgets). The essence of yoga practice is to be able to conduct it in any place and at any time. Your students should be able to take the teaching you convey and practice on their own anywhere without dependency on a facility.
避開那些只有在特定教學設施(熱的房間或過多的瑜伽輔助物品)條件下才能練習的瑜伽風格。瑜伽練習的本質是應該能隨時隨地地進行。你的學生應該在接受了你所傳遞的教導后，能夠自己在任何地方練習，而不是得依賴某些設施。
8. New-age yoga.
不要落入“新世紀”瑜伽的迷霧
Be careful of flakiness and new-age non sense.
小心所有那些有關“新世紀”的魚龍混雜的學說。
Knowledge of energy and the chakras is powerful, but there is much more to the yoga practice than just the chakras.
有關能量和氣輪的知識是很有力量的，但在氣輪以外瑜伽還有很多其他內容。
9. Connection with the teacher after course is done.
在培訓結束和教師繼續保持連接
Make sure that the teacher will be available to you to answer questions after the course has ended and to guide you in your first steps of your teaching if needed. You should be able to find spiritual support from your teacher outside the course as your practice must continue after your certification.
確保在培訓結束后你仍然有機會向教師提問，如果需要的話甚至能幫助你踏上開始教課的道路。你應該能夠在培訓以后繼續從你的教師那里得到靈性的支持，即便你已經有了證書。
10. The power of transformation.
轉變的力量
Let your heart, not only your mind and wallet, be involved in the search for the right teacher and teaching. Avoid being influenced by trends and deals. The teacher is the vehicle for the teaching that may resonate in you forever.
要用你的心，而不是光用你的頭腦和錢包來決定應該選擇什么樣的教師和什么樣的培訓。不要受潮流和生意經的影響。教師是傳遞瑜伽教導的工具，而那種教導也許會影響你的一生。
True teachers will expand your capacity to receive wisdom that arises from beyond your programmed mind.
真正的教師會擴展你接納智慧的能力，那種智慧只能來自超越你頭腦的羈絆。
