点评:I recently spent three weeks at the Nepal Yoga Home, as a participant in the 200 hour Teachers Training for Seniors, and I cannot speak highly enough of my time there. From the moment we walked in the door, we were made to feel at home and treated as family.
The facility itself is situated in a quiet location on the outskirts of Kathmandu, nestled into the hillside of the adjoining forest. The facilities are clean and modern, the food is sensational and the staff warm and welcoming. We were also treated to social activities that included singing, dancing and chanting, and tours of the surrounding natural environment.
The days are well structured, and the programme varies depending on the course you are enrolled in. The seniors teaching course included daily training in asana, meditation, breathwork and philosophy, as well as a specialised program that focused on all aspects of teaching and implementing a targeted training program for seniors. I now feel confident and qualified to apply what I have learnt at the Nepal Yoga Home in designing and implementing yoga classes for seniors in my home town when I return to Australia.
Thank you to all of the teachers and staff for your love, compassion and support, not only to myself and my fellow students, but to all of those that will benefit as each new group of teachers return to their homelands around the world to raise awareness of the practise of yoga.

瑜伽之家坐落在加德满都郊外一处静谧之地,依偎在毗邻森林的山坡上。设施干净现代,食物美味可口,工作人员热情友好。我们还参加了各种社交活动,包括唱歌、跳舞、吟诵,以及周边自然环境的游览。
每天的课程安排井然有序,具体内容会根据你选择的课程而有所不同。老年人瑜伽教师培训课程包括每日的体式、冥想、呼吸练习和哲学训练,以及一个专注于老年人瑜伽教学各个方面的专门课程,并指导如何为老年人设计并实施针对性的培训项目。现在,我充满信心,也觉得自己有能力将我在尼泊尔瑜伽之家学到的知识运用到我的家乡,在回到澳大利亚后,为老年人设计和开设瑜伽课程。感谢所有老师和工作人员的爱、关怀和支持,不仅是对我和我的同学们,也是对所有将受益于瑜伽的人们,因为每一批新的老师都会回到世界各地的家乡,提高人们对瑜伽练习的认识。
