PRACTICUM:
In Art of Teaching, trainees will be gradually introduced to teaching by moving through what we call “Asana Analysis” where we breakdown the poses and also string them together in a group of poses called mini sequences. Students will practice teaching these mini sequences. The first part will be learning to teach the Kula Basic Flow while the second part will be focused on building and creating Holistic Yoga Sequences.
We will have two individual teaching practicums of 90 minute classes:
The Kula Basic Flow will be taught to a peer.
Unique Creative Sequence you will develop and teach to a peer.

You may also want to begin limiting your consumption of meat, alcohol and caffeine in the months leading up to the training. Drink water as often as possible and begin to listen to and notice any changes in your body’s responses to this purification process.

IMMIGRATION AND VISAS:
Visa requirements are different for various countries. Please search the internet for the closest Indonesian consulate for the visa requirements for your country of origin. Your 30 day Indonesian Tourist Visa will be given to you at immigration once you've arrived in Bali at a $35 cost. If you are planning to stay longer than 30 days, you may hire an agent to extend your visa at an extra cost (about $80). This only means you are eligible for an extension. If you choose to extend, you must do so in Denpasar. This is possible, yet it is an all-day process and can only be done during off-days.
You may also acquire the 60 day visa at an embassy an Indonesian embassy in your country. This needs to be done prior to your travel. A third option for staying over 30 days is to take a quick flight to Singapore or another country nearby that will reset your visa for another automatic 30 days. If you are flying Delta Airlines and planning to stay over 30 days we recommend you purchase a flight or apply for a 60day visa pre-travel, as Delta has been known to not allow those staying longer than 30 days without a visa on the flight.
VACCINES:
No inoculations are required to enter Bali but it is always best to talk to your doctor and check out the Center for Disease Control website for information about recommended vaccinations.
