200 Hour Yoga Training

Join us on a journey of profound transformation with our revitalized 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training.

Our training is a bridge to personal renewal, a response to the world’s collective call for healing and growth. Amidst an era marked by upheaval and transition, our program stands as a beacon, illuminating the path of resurgence and self-discovery.

Building upon a strong, established foundation, we emphasize a holistic health framework that values every facet of the individual – the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual – ensuring a comprehensive journey towards optimal health and wellness.

Physically, we delve into alignments deep wisdom, acknowledging that when our bodies resonate in harmony, we shift from a stake of simple endurance to one of thriving vitality and vibrant health.

Mentally, it’s about forging a balance and synergy between the mind and other aspects of the self, creating a mindset that empowers and elevates.

Emotionally, we will learn how to navigate life’s ebb and flow with a calm, centered presence. We will explore deep-seated equanimity, liberating emotional encumbrances that have long over shadowed your inner brilliance.

Spiritually, our focus will be on inner exploration and self-awareness. By questioning and deeply listening, we pace the way to clear our minds, reignite our inner fire, and connect to what truly gives our life meaning and purpose.

Through this holistic approach, our training aspires to illuminate the path to true yoga – a state of union, wholeness, and harmonious existence with all that is.

Our 200hr Yoga Teacher Training program is rooted in the teachings of Vinyasa, a dynamic and flowing style of yoga that emphasizes the connection between breath and movement. We will inspire you to become a creative and compassionate yoga teacher who can infuse your classes with your unique style while fostering meaningful connections with your students.

Compassion is at the heart of our training. We believe that yoga is not just about physical postures, but also about cultivating a deep sense of empathy and understanding towards oneself and others. Through workshops, coaching and discussions, we will explore the philosophy of yoga and its ethical principles, guiding you to embody compassion both on and off the mat.

You will be guided by experienced and passionate yoga teachers who are dedicated to helping you unlock your full potential as a teacher and as an individual.
