JKYog Team -

Opening prayers conducted across the globe

Prem Yoga Teacher's Academy launched its inaugural certification course on August 4th, 2020. During the midst of a global pandemic, the training utilizes a hybrid (online and limited in-person) format, spanning across 5 time zones in various countries and regions. Participants are completing a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher certification, and upon completion will be internationally accredited with Yoga Alliance.

Classes synchronized with in-person and online participants

The training is headed by Los Angeles instructor Devi, under the close guidance and direction of Swami Mukundananda. The Prem Yoga methodology and curriculum is designed to invoke the divine sentiments at the heart of yogic practices - union of the soul and individual consciousness with God in a loving reciprocal relationship. The asanas (postures) are a carefully refined set of traditional poses, with opening and closing prayers and breathing cues designed to keep God at the center of the practice - a welcome revival from the frivolous permutations found in the modern yoga market.

Swami Mukundananda, senior disciple of Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj, infuses this yoga teacher's training with a scriptural authenticity and traditional integrity generally missing from most training programs. Participants are engaged in his live lectures, given personal attention and interactions, and have special Q&A sessions with the world-renowned teacher.

Devi, lead instructor with over a decade of teaching experience

Participants learn the history and origin of yoga, explore the paths of Bhakti, Karma and Gyan, engage in Kirtan (devotional singing), and explore the vast philosophical system of Yoga. Devi, from her Los Angeles studio, utilizes more than a decade of teaching experience to inspire and guide students in their personal practices and refine their teaching skills to enrich their local communities.
