Education for Life
The Education for Life degree offers a wide background in yogic studies for
those students interested in the teaching profession. During the first two years
of study, students attend classes from every discipline in the Institute, thereby
experiencing how the principles of yoga permeate all areas of life. From this base
they begin helping out in the elementary and high school classrooms first observing
and then helping to create a learning environment that manifests these yogic principles.
Graduates of the Education for Life program are prepared for careers as a classroom
teacher, school administrator, or educational researcher and consultant. To learn

"I came here to learn how to teach from
a spiritual perspective. During the few
years I've
lived at the Meditation Retreat, I've learned more about teaching, about
myself, and about life than I ever could
have imagined. Living at the retreat while
attending the Institute has completely
transformed my life. I once dreamed of
attending a college where spiritual growth
is the student's first priority. Where the
instructors are wise and compassionate,
and where people live in harmony as a
big extended family. For me, the Ananda
Institute is a dream come true."
