Zen Yoga Instructor Ranking System
Zen Yoga is developed on a ranking system similar to traditional martial arts.
Progression through different levels reflects the time and effort put into the training. It is completely up to the individual as to how far they wish to advance in rank. Age and physical ability are irrelevant as long as the participant is committed to their own personal growth.
Each level has its own requirements. Certification of rank is provided after completion of each level requirements..
