Teacher Training

Have you experienced the sweet flavour and deep transformation that comes from practicing yoga? Do you wish to take it to a next level by starting to teach yoga?

Taking this step to become a yoga teacher has helped already many people to commit to a yogic lifestyle, serve others by sharing skills, knowledge, presence and wisdom and open for new professional directions in life.

We all have a teacher inside the heart, waiting to be listened to, a flame ready to be kindled.

This teacher training is an opportunity for sincere yoga practitioners to deepen their practice and to learn all the necessary tools to start teaching themselves and to pass on the ancient science and art of yoga.

Hatha Yoga will be thought of in its holistic form with an understanding of the main yogic branches. The aim of Hatha yoga is to align the body, mind, and spirit, to free ourselves from blockages, which results in healing, to cultivate awareness, and ultimately to open up for Self-Realisation.

At the end of the training, you will all be able to give a full integral Hatha yoga class and have the necessary philosophical background and understanding of the mechanisms of yoga. Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certification that is registered with Yoga Alliance and has international credibility.
