Becoming a Dahn Yoga instructor is a rewarding journey, as teaching is the best way to master any practice. Members of a class often feel enormous gratitude to the teacher for providing a quality yoga class. What they don't realize is that the instructors often feel the same gratitude, as if they are receiving a greater benefit!

There are various levels of teaching Dahn Yoga, each requiring a different degree of commitment and training. If you are interested in teaching Dahn Yoga, talk with an instructor to explore which level best suits your goals.

1. Volunteer Dahn Foundation Instructor.
   Many practitioners feel the desire to share the benefits of Dahn Yoga with their community around them.
   When they feel confident to share the basic exercises in class, they can become a Volunteer Dahn Foundation Instructor. The Dahn Foundation instructor training is offered as a one day program, or can be taught individually by an approved Senior Instructor.



2. Basic Instructor Certified Brain Management Consultant
   Brain Management Consultant (BMC) is the name of the Dahn Yoga teacher certification course for individuals, those who want to teach inside or outside the center.
   This course teaches the basic principles of Ki energy and Brain Management.
   Graduates learn about the Brain Education program and the theory of Dahn Yoga, and most importantly, how to transmit the principles through teaching class.
   BMC graduates teach on a part-time basis in Dahn Yoga centers, or outside the center in both volunteer and paid positions.



3. Senior Instructor
   This is the most committed level of instructor.
   Training to be a Senior Instructor combines a mix of a modern day educational methods and the traditional mentor-apprentice model.
   There are certain certification courses to take, however, every aspiring Senior Instructor works with a mentor, and becomes eligible for the appropriate certification courses at the discretion of their mentoring instructor and other senior Instructors.

"When I came to the Dahn center, I knew I had found something very special - a place where the opportunity for growth is limitless. I learned how to seek answers by sincerely looking inside myself. Now, my job is to share those methods with others. I never thought I would find such a fulfilling job!"
