An 80% attendance record is required to be eligible for graduation (i.e. no more than 5 days of tuition may be missed)*. The course itself is comprised of three sections: Foundation Module, Advanced Module, and Specialist Module.

* This condition does not apply to correspondence course students.

QiYoga^® Training is Special

Unlike any other Yoga course, you are encouraged to perform a series of exams, do regular quizzes, and run two QiYoga^® courses under the guidance of the course coordinator. Constant feedback and support will be provided to enable you to feel 100% confident and competent as a QiYoga^® teacher.

Onus of Responsibility

It is your responsibility to work within your limits at all times. QiYoga^® teachers, mentors or course coordinators do not take any responsibility if you harm or injure yourself on the course.

Qi⁰ Prerequisite Level Requirements

Attendance at a minimum of 16 QiYoga^® classes outside of the teacher training course is obligatory. Jen runs these classes at a number of venues. Please view the classes page here for further details.

For correspondence students; once you have attended 3 QiYoga^® classes you can watch further classes online - [details to follow ]- (to be released in December 2010).

Qi¹ Foundation Level Requirements

This is a theory based course in which you will be required to study the manual and resource material as well as have attended 16 classes to ensure you pass your initial exam. Passing the exams at the end of this course will allow you to continue with Qi².

Qi² Advanced Level Requirements

This is the practical side of the course. You will learn how to creatively construct yoga classes for different levels of students with different ailments. For those interested in going the "Professional Route" you will have the option to run both a 6 week Beginner Level course and an 8 week Chakra Balancing course under supervision. These courses can be run either in your home, your office, or in a hired venue. If you require the course coordinator and mentors to travel to you, you will incur an additional fee of $25.00 per class. Alternatively you can record your classes and submit them for grading. For those who do not want to teach yoga upon graduation then you do not have to do this component of the course. You can complete it at a later date if you wish.

Qi³ Specialist Level Requirements

You will need to attend 7 prenatal classes with a Hatha Yoga teacher in your area. You are required to practice performing 2 prenatal classes with the mentors or record your class via web cam or video camera prior to your exam.
