Who would benefit from this course?

This course is perfect for any one who can’t make it to Byron Bay (or other locations) for the face-to-face weekend intensives.  The online option allows you the flexibility of studying from your own home, at your own pace.  The course is ideal for already qualified yoga teachers, recent teacher training graduates, or those still completing their yoga teacher training – who want to specialise in the growing field of prenatal and postnatal yoga.

The course would also be enjoyable and informative if you're a keen yoga practitioner who is pregnant or a new mum,  and you're looking to deepen your knowledge of how yoga can support you during these new and exciting stages in your life.

How does the course work?

After you've enrolled and we've confirmed your payment for the course, you'll be given exclusive access to a private area of the website where you can access all your online resources (written materials and audio lecture files).    We’ll also mail you other course resources – DVDs and CD.

You’ll have 6 lectures to listen to, and one Video lecture,  if you are doing the Complete Course, or 2 lectures if you are doing the Postnatal Course.  Whilst listening to the lectures you can read along with the Course Manual and Course Guide. You can also have your yoga mat (and sometimes other props like bolster, brick) at the ready as there will be practical segments to some of the lectures. There are also additional DVD & CD resources to view/ listen/practice.

After each audio or video lecture you'll be assigned homework tasks to keep you engaged and ensure you’re integrating the information we’re giving you, and to help you prepare for the learning to come in the next session.

After you’ve completed the final audio lecture, you’ll be asked to undertake a Major Case Study Assignment.  Don’t worry, by this time, this won’t be a daunting task, rather, a fun, practical way of integrating all of the information you’ve learnt, by applying the information.

Once we’ve marked your Major Case Study Assignment we’ll book a Live Skype session with you. This is your opportunity to chat with a Bliss Baby Facilitator about any questions you may have about course content that’s been covered, as well as receive feedback from us about your Case Study Assignment.

How long does the course take to complete?

The beauty of this online option of the Bliss Baby Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training is that you can complete it in your own time, to fit around your other commitments.   That said, if you had a chunk of available free time, there’s no reason why you couldn’t finish the Complete Course within a week to 10 days,  or the Postnatal Course within a weekend (subject to availability of Bliss Baby Course Facilitator for the Live Session).

Alternatively you could pace the Complete Course over 7 weeks, covering a module (ie: one audio lecture and homework module) each week.  The main thing to remember is that you have up to 6 months to complete the course.   How you pace it over that time, well, that’s up to you, and what works best for your lifestyle.

What accreditation is offered?

As this course is not a face-to-face course, there are no stand-alone accreditation points acruable.  However, the hours that you take to complete this course can be used as Yoga Alliance hours towards other Bliss Baby or Byron Yoga Centre face-to-face courses.  For example, the hours from this course can be used to reduce the at-home hours required for the 100 hour Bliss Baby Prenatal & Postnatal Course .

It takes  approximately 40 - 50 hours to finish the Online Complete Course, or about 15 hours to finish the Postnatal Course,  depending on how much time and energy you put into the course. The more time you put into it, the more at-home hours you can accrue.

What past online course participants say:

I would recommend this course to anyone who has an interest in pre/post natal Yoga and in teaching Yoga. It has been far more than I ever imagined, and I feel that I have a whole new perspective in my own life & teaching style," Louise O'loan, Yoga Teacher, Bahrain

"It was very easy to follow and complete the course.  I feel totally confident implementing the ideas and practices in my teaching.  The DVD classes were particularly helpful," Mel Champion, Yoga Teacher, Golbourn

"It was very well structured, uncomplicated and the right amount of time.  Already qualified teachers would enjoy the practicality of this course" Janine Campbell, Yoga Teacher, Gold Coast

"I found the online teacher training very useful and beneficial.  I feel much more comfortable and confident as a teacher leading a class at 7 months pregnant that am doing the Asanas safely and beneficially for me and my baby.  I thought the practical knowledge was invaluable.  Every woman is different both in body and in her yoga experience so having props and modifications can be very useful," Liliana Bruno, Yoga Teacher, Adelaide

"I enjoyed the course.  It was great to be able to study at home, stop and start when I needed to and also to rewind and revist parts of the course that I wanted to refer to again.  It covered the most important anatomy, asana, health issues, as well as emotional issiues, without trying to flesh it out with other stuff to fill in time," Cliar Skyring, Bald Hills

"Just wanted to let you know I held my first mums & bubs yoga class today! Thank you for providing me with the knowledge, confidence and inspiration to conduct safe postnatal yoga classes. The class is such a success, it was booked out before we began, and I will now have two weekly mums & bubs classes," Andi Kiprillis, Berwick, Victoria

"I loved the way Bliss Baby allowed each student to be themselves, rousing the individual to ask questions, discuss matters of interest and to share information. The support team at Bliss Baby showed faith and acceptance as they continued to ask for our comments and input, it allowed for free communication. I loved the generosity of the sharing by means of personal experiences, articles, demonstrations (DVD) and printed forms of guidance as well as the online communication," Louise O'loan, Yoga Teacher, Bahrain

Step 3:  Once your enrolment has been confirmed, we'll send out your hard-copy resources (additional audiovisual material).  We will dispatch your mailed-materials within 4 working days of confirmation of your purchase.
