Deciding to do a Yoga Teacher Training in Asia especially in Thailand has some nice benefits. Thai culture is infused with Buddhism which is an offspring of the ancient Yogic philosophies. It reflects in the behavior and character of the people here who generally tend to be very friendly and polite. Youll find lots of inspiration visiting the Thai temples and seeing people make ritual offerings all over the place. And even though most Thais are Buddhist they also incorporate the Hindu deities used by the traditional Yogis of India. Its common to see statues of Shiva Ganesh Saraswati and so on. The climate here is also just right for having a vigorous and detoxifying practice.  more info]]> 2011-11-22 http://www.yogatoronto.ca/events_workshops.html http://www.yogatoronto.ca/6686#item6686 6:00PM - 4:00PM
