THE HEART OF TEACHING YOGA
Essential Foundation and Techniques
Weekends Intensive
We have created a program to deepen your personal practice and will get you ready to teach creative, and transformative yoga classes. Our training is hybrid and modular that provides 45 hours of online content, 160 hours of in-person training, and a 4-day full intensive at Dom Aurora.
We provide holistic experiences designed and give you the tools to be an effective yoga teacher. Here you’ll explore union through movement, exploration, and service and find lifelong friends, confidence and the ability to teach qualitative yoga classes that are rooted in the traditional lineage of T.Krishnamacharya.
The modules in this training can be booked separately or as a whole.
Embodied Yoga Teacher Training
Over the course of this training, we will establish a consistent daily asana practice, immerse ourselves into yogic scripture and self-study, and lay the foundation for a lifelong learning as yoga students and as teachers.
This training will take place at Manas Yoga Studio, Saturdays (13:00-22:00) and Sundays (9:00-15:00) from September 21 to December 8 2024. A 4-day all inclusive stay at Dom Aurora in Carinthia, Austria will cap this event. There, we will live and learn together and nourish our senses. We will be served vegan/vegetarian food that are prepared from seasonal, organic and farm to table ingredients that are influenced by TCM, Ayurveda and Italian kitchen.
