LOYRT and RIMYI have designed a course on "Certification
in Yoga" for children that helps them to be physically stronger,
mentally alert and they enjoy it. This is a universal course.
The table below shows the various levels and the minimum age at
which a child can appear for an exam.

This 8 year certification course has a universally applicable syllabus
which provides students a firm grounding in the science and philosophy
of yoga. This enables them to achieve good physical and mental health,
emotional stability and clarity of thought on completion of the 'Praman
Patra' level.
The course also includes examinations. For each level, the student
appears for theory and practical exams. For the final Praman Patra
level, the student is even taught the art of teaching children. On
successful completion of this level, the student is permitted to teach
yoga.
Since 1997, examinations have been conducted and over several hundred
successful students have been awarded certificates by RIMYI. |
