OBJECTIVE AND DESCRIPTION

M.A. in Yoga (YOGA SPECIALIZATION) is a program that offers an enveloping study of the theoretical and practical features of the curriculum. Yoga is an alternative type of therapy that cures various diseases and controls varied health issues without the use of prescriptions or medicines. As a result, it is continually non-invasive and non-prescriptive. On the other hand, yoga does the exact same thing via meditation and asanas.

The program at Maharishi University (MUIT), M.A. in Yoga (YOGA SPECIALIZATION), prepares undergraduate students for a flourishing career in the field of yoga. We assure you that the curriculum is a combination of core, proficient, professional, and advanced courses. M.A. in Yoga (YOGA SPECIALIZATION) has been designed to equip students with the understanding and practical aspects of holistic health through ancient Vedic knowledge, but with standardization on a contemporary platform.

It aims to provide holistic understanding to a student interested in pursuing studies in the discipline. It builds a foundation in the philosophy, principles, and practices of yoga and introduces basic and core sciences such as Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Psychology, Stress Management, and Health and Nutrition, which play a major role in individual and societal development. Graduates of yoga can pursue careers in therapy, teaching, research, entrepreneurship, etc.

“Maharishi says that all forms of yoga, in their pure essence, are supposed to be natural, for full overall development, and to not only reach but to live a state of yoga, which is union. It provides the key to inner peace, stress and anxiety relief, happiness, wellness, success, and—ultimately—the realization of the true purpose of yoga—to elevate life to its highest potential—enlightenment”.
