Teacher’s Training Program in Yoga & Life-Skills – The Opportunity
“…all round development as the stated purpose of education implies optimization of hidden
potential of every child in the physical, intellectual, mental and spiritual planes. The CBSE
initiative for the first time in the country makes an effort to translate the lofty goal of all round
development into practice.
The ‘comprehensive’ component of CCE takes care of assessment of all round development of
the child’s personality. It includes assessment of Scholastic as well as Co-scholastic aspects of
the pupil’s growth. Scholastic aspects include curricular areas or subject specific areas, whereas
co-scholastic aspects include Life Skills, Co-Curricular activities, attitudes and values.”
(Concept note on Conceptual Framework of CCE, CBSE)
The above introductory note as part of the currently implemented CCE pattern of evaluation by
CBSE establishes the rising need for Life-Skills, Yoga and other co-curricular activities’ trainers in
schools.
Samacheer Kalvi, introduced by The Government of Tamil Nadu, also makes yoga education
mandatory in school curriculum. Similar to the CBSE pattern, Samacheer Kalvi, has also evolved
a CCE pattern laying emphasis on holistic education, in its own inimitable style.
Thus Life-Skills and Yoga education in schools, as an evolving area has created a huge demand
gap for adequately trained and equipped teachers and the same will only increase, with more
and more schools actively implementing this new system.
Various studies have thrown light on the poor employability levels of Indian graduates and the
lacuna is on their soft-skills. While this being the case, global demographic trends point to the
fact that, India shall emerge as the major provider of human capital to the global community in
the next couple of decades. Sensing this need more and more soft-skills trainers in corporate
and college space are taking steps to expand their scope to K-12 space.
These trends emphasise a definite need gap for life-skills trainers in K-12 space apart from the
rising demand within the school program. Skill-building for quality trainers in this space will go
a long way in nurturing confident and responsible global citizens.
Our programs are aimed to empower individuals to carve a niche for themselves in this newly
emerging career opportunity.

12 space, to address the needs of education system as well as the industry.

century global capital economy

Just as
a fire is covered by smoke,
a mirror is obscured by dust,
the embryo rests deep within the womb,
wisdom is hidden by selfish desire.

Our Knowledge Partner
Satyananda Yoga Centre Triplicane (SYC), an extension of the Bihar School of Yoga tradition in Chennai,
has dedicated and invested its time and effort in taking Satyananda Yoga into the school education
system. Through its initiatives several private schools as well as government run schools have
successfully introduced Satyananda Yoga as part of their curriculum. SYC has the experience of training
more than one lakh children and adults in yoga and life-skills education. SYC has positively influenced
the lives of professionals, corporate, army-men, home-makers, cancer patients, special children, jail-
inmates, spiritual aspirants, etc., apart from principals, teachers and children in schools.
Bihar School of Yoga (BSY) established, by Sri Swami Satyananda, 50 years ago on the banks of Ganga at
Munger has been doing extensive research in one of India’s pride – YOGA. Sri Satyananda strongly
advocated the importance and benefits of Yoga by saying ‘Yoga is going to be the culture of the future’.
BSY has successfully transformed lives of lakhs of children over the past five decades through Yoga
programs the world over. The experiences of not only these children but also youth and adults who
attended the various programs at BSY have been documented and researched in a scientific manner.
These findings which form the basis of our curriculum, has been accepted as part of the children
education program in many countries across the globe.
