As one truly seeks to become a teacher, he must first come to an understanding and a realization within himself, for within our spiritually realized Self, there is a source of all knowledge and wisdom. We concentrate on the purification of the individual, emphasizing the "unlearning" process... Before one can become a proficient teacher, he must master the art of being a student. Our techniques are derived from Premananda Deva's thirty-four year discipleship to the illumined Ananda Devi. You will gain knowledge about your Spiritual Self, about your inner nature and mind. At the same time, you can gain the certification of a teacher with the Yoga Alliance of America, both 200-hour and 500-hour courses. This includes the mastery of Hatha Yoga, Tibetan Yoga, Pranayama, Mantra Recitation and Teaching skills for these subjects. Premananda Deva has been teaching styles of Hatha Yoga according to Vishnu Devananda and B K S Iyengar styles, and also Tibetan styles previously unknown in the West. Premananda Deva's teacher, Ananda Devi studied from the French master Dr. Thooris, who learned from a Japanese master years ago (this master lived 10 years in Tibet). The Tibetan yoga system involves the movements of nature and animals, concentrating on free-flowing movement of the body, cultivating the spirit of letting go -- "Wu Wei". We concentrate on utilizing pranayama as a powerful tool for the conquering and stilling of the mind. We emphasize chanting of certain simple Sanskrit mantras. Our form of meditation is dynamic, concentrating on contemplation and eradication of obstacles. We also impart techniques for natural healing, introducing the Deva Method of healing. Nearly all of our pupils have achieved an experience of cosmic consciousness during their training with us. For more information, please contact the New Future Society |

Comments from a student of the Yoga Teacher Training Program: "Learning from true, spiritual yoga masters, Premananda Deva and Lakshmi Devi, transformed my life. The school, the New Future Society reflected, not only the high professional standards of the respected Yoga Alliance of America, but also the spirit, the soul, the consciousness of Yoga and our mother country, India. Experiencing higher levels of consciousness under their direction was life changing. Their methods of teaching were fun, instructional, and uplifting. Being in their presence was truly being in the light!" |
