VINIYOGA THERAPY PROJECTS LIBRARY
The Viniyoga®️ tradition also offers you the best and most complete Therapy Training Program today. The course curriculum was initially designed by Śrī TKV Desikachar and Dr Kausthub Desikachar and is now reviewed and updated regularly by under the direction of the Viniyoga Council of Academic Patrons.
The Viniyoga Therapy Training offers in-depth training in applying the holistic principles of Yoga as a complementary healing system. Graduates not only go through the most exhaustive training but also are evaluated on three important parameters before certification. One of them is the completion and submission of a Yoga Therapy Research Project. To maintain the highest integrity, this project is not evaluated by the trainers themselves. Rather, it is sent to a highly qualified external examiner, who is a part of the esteemed Viniyoga Council of Evaluators, a neutral council of experts in the fields of Yoga Therapy, Healing and Science.
Here in this Viniyoga Therapy Project Library, we share with you a selected few project reports from some of our successful graduates of the training programs we have conducted so far since 2007. They are arranged chronologically based on date of submission. We are very proud of these our sincere and dedicated students who have completed these awesome projects. We will be updating this page as and when more projects are approved!
