Teaching and application requirements

Met onze nieuwe website veranderen we ook het proces om je aan te melden voor het geven van les op het Festival. Let op: de sluitingsdata voor het programma zijn nu veel eerder dan in het verleden: 30 maart 2020.

Dien eerst een lerarenprofiel in. Alle leraren met een profiel worden elk jaar opnieuw uitgenodigd om een verzoek voor een les in te dienen tijdens het Festival.

1. You must be a KRI certified teacher and a member of your National Kundalini Yoga Teachers’ Association (NKYTA) or IKYTA to be eligible to teach at the European Yoga Festival. If you are not currently a member, please contact your NKTYA to apply.
2. Please submit only one class proposal. This includes proposals for co-taught classes.
3. Voorstellen (in Engels) kunnen tot 30 maart worden ingediend. Daarna worden geen voorstellen meer in behandeling genomen.
4. Als je geen bevestigingsmail ontvangt vanuit ons systeem is je aanmelding niet goed aangekomen. Probeer het dan nog eens.
5. We verwachten het programma op 15 mei het programma rond te hebben. We laten je per email weten als je voorstel is goedgekeurd. Overige voorstellen worden op een wachtlijst geplaatst voor het geval er afmeldingen komen.

Thank you for your interest in teaching at the European Yoga Festival. The wide variety of workshops offered each year form an integral part of the healing and transformational experience of the festival. The calibre of the teaching on offer makes the Festival what it is.

You are eligible to be considered as a teacher at the festival if the following points describe you:

1. You are actively teaching a Kundalini Yoga class or a class related to your subject matter.
2. You are a KRI certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher.
3. You are a current member of your national Kundalini Yoga Teachers Association, or of IKYTA.
4. You are in good standing with the Ethics and Professional Standards Committee.
5. You have been teaching Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan for at least 5 years.

If you do not meet these initial requirements (as may be the case in some specialist topics), we will ask you to give us some more information about your teaching practice, background, style and will additionally ask for references.

If you are accepted onto the European Yoga Festival Teacher list, you will be invited each year to submit a class for consideration for the European Yoga Festival programme. Please note that an invitation to submit does not guarantee we will be able to include you in the programme. A variety of factors affect what classes /teachers we select for Programme – including class themes, number of applications received, and locations available.

This year, you will fill out the Teacher Profile and Class Submission at the same time.

Next year, we will send out Invitations to all those with a Teacher Profile to submit for a class in early January (ie, approx. 6 months before the Festival).

NEXT YEAR, ONLY THOSE WITH A TEACHER PROFILE WILL BE SENT AN INVITATION TO TEACH. YOU CAN FILL OUT THE TEACHER PROFILE AT ANY TIME, TO BECOME PART OF OUR INVITATION MAILING LIST.

The good news is: you only need to fill this form in once, please do in English! You will then be on our Teacher invite list, unless you ask to be removed, or unless you are no longer a member in good standing with your NKYTA/IKYTA or EPS.

If you have questions about this process, please contact our Programme Coordinator: satwant.kaur@europeanyogafestival.eu

Important: You can save this form and edit it later. Please click the link and then add your email address to be sent a link that will allow to return and edit the form.
