OUR PROGRAM
The cornerstones of our teachings are energy-based classical Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, spiritual heart meditation, and the non-dual wisdom of Advaita Vedanta. We aspire to synchronize mind and heart, to combine rational understanding with deep-going practice, and to develop present moment awareness. Authenticity and inspiration, passion and enthusiasm are our hallmarks.
Now for the first time we can offer a Yoga Alliance certified teacher training online, and we will bring all our enthusiasm and knowledge and love for teaching and learning to help students go deep into the heart of Yoga.
WHAT MAKES OUR TRAINING SPECIAL?
We present a selection of key elements that will empower you to become a successful Yoga instructor: learning how to self practice, comprehensive knowledge of Yoga techniques, skillfulness in correction and adjustments, depth in Yoga philosophy, and the development of leadership qualities. We are of course fully committed to bringing all this into our online course.
We aim to take the Yoga off the mat and integrate it into daily life. During this challenging time we are excited to step forward and share our passion and love in a time when people need Yoga more than ever.
