the fitness world and traditional yoga classes. It
addresses the needs of the whole person and establishes a fundamental
understanding of "mind, body, spirit". It teaches how
to approach total wellness and gives the tools needed to motivate
individuals to accept responsibility for their own health.
Instruction in physical movement/ asanas, breathing exercises/
pranayamas and relaxation/meditation practices is an integral
part of every class.

Schedule Information
Thank
you for considering Pathways Yoga Systems as your yoga school.
Pathways
Yoga Systems is a Wellness School and PYS teachers begin their
training learning correctives and conditioners which help them
conduct general classes that anyone can attend. The
ability to teach asana in this specific manner is divided into
three groups.
Level
I certification
...
is a ten-month beginner/gentle yoga teacher training program designed
to enable you to begin assisted teaching within 6 months. You
will be mentored by senior teachers within their classes to help
you gain personal experience.
Level
II certification
...
is a 20 month Hatha Yoga teacher training program which fulfills
the 200 Hour training required by the Yoga Alliance*. It will
include advanced asanas, the chakra system and basic introduction
to philosophy. Both levels may be taken simultaneously with
the approval of the director. *www.Yogaalliance.org
Level
III certification...
is a three year, 1000 hour course. Prerequisite is successful
completion of Levels I+II. You will reach the 500 hour Yoga Alliance
requirements during this level and receive your certification
at that time. The certification of Yoga Therapist may be attained
during the additional 500 hours needed to complete Level III.
Tuition...
Each level is divided into a registration fee and class fees.
Level
I :Tuition: $1200 ($600 non-refundable registration fee + $600
class fee (1year program.)

be returned to you. Class fees are due at the beginning of the
session.
Payment
plans are available. For a monthly payment plan, contact info@pathwaysyoga.com
and we will be happy to assist you.
If
you are approved for a monthly payment plan, we asked that you
ensure payments are made on the first of the month. We reserve
the right to revoke payment plans for chronic late payments or
other non-conformity to agreed arrangement.
Additional
classes and / or Wellness workshops with a trained PYS teacher
may be required to complete your hours. Fees for additional classes
or workshops are not included in tuition costs.
Costs
for classes and workshops vary by teacher and location. PYS can
provide you with information on PYS class options.
All
students must fill out a registration form for their chosen level
and pay the registration fee prior to their first workshop THE
PATHWAYS YOGA SYSTEM Pathways Yoga Systems is based on teachers
supporting each other not only spiritually but also in their business
relationships.
Pyramid
Workshops
The
Pyramid Workshop concept was devised to provide a full yoga program
for PYS Teacher Trainee's while minimizing the amount of time
needed for participation. This workshop format allows potential
teachers to conveniently schedule all their classes on one day
a month. Monthly classes on a pre-arranged day allow students
to plan their calendars for the year. Missed classes may be made
up within the yearly cycle. A second workshop each month is provided
for CEU Wellness Classes. The overlap time allows for asana practice,
assisting, practice teaching, spiritual and social interaction.
Level
I classes begin at 9:00 am and end at 1:00 pm
Level
II classes begin at 12:00 pm and end at 4:00 pm
Level
III classes begin at 2:00 and end at 6:00 pm.
The
overlapping workshop time allows teachers to interact and become
aware of each other's abilities, specialties and localities. Since
everyone occasionally requires a substitute for their classes,
this is an important feature. The ability to contact someone you
know, who can teach the same basic (core) program, is vital to
maintaining continuity, a good client base and financial security.
This program allows teachers to: 1. Get to know each other- 2.
See each other teach- 3. Experience different approaches- 4. Practice
teaching at all three levels- 5. Become a QTT after completing
the 500 hour certification- 6. Have the opportunity to share with
each other 7. Establish a yoga sanga "community"- 8. Acquire CEU's
in specialized yoga classes.

Most
Commonly Asked Questions Regarding a PYS Course.
What specific questions do you have that I can help with? I'll
try to answer the most commonly asked. " Our Level I course covers
100 hours in 10 months and will begin on the second Saturday in
January. " Your hours begin to accumulate as soon as you begin
to attend Pathways classes with a certified Pathways Yoga Teacher.
" The monthly workshops are Pyramid workshops: on the 2nd Sat.
of the month in Burlington, MA... on the 3rd Sat. of the month
at The Farm, Hampton Falls NH, on the 4th Sat. of the month at
The Yoga Room in Hampstead, NH. Pyramid workshops allow students
to plan their calendars, to participate with other teaching levels
during the same day, and allow everyone to work with each other
to acquire teaching hours. It also allows students to take more
than one level at a time if they so choose. If you are interested
in attaining the 200 hours required for the Yoga Alliance, you
may be able to take Levels I and II simultaneously. " The registration
fee is $600 for each level " Workshops are $60 each and include
tests. " In case of a missed class, tests may be purchased and
the workshop may be made up at a future date with no extra cost.
" I do not accept credit cards but I do have payment plans available
on request. You can check our web-site and read more about the
