Why comeMore ways to support your students.
More ways to support your students.
More depth in your own practice.
Learn through experience
Move between study, personal practice and practical teaching. Explore props, supported rest and hands-on techniques with guidance from experienced teachers.
Give yourself time to integrate
Step away from everyday demands. Live close to nature, share meals and practice with a community, and let the learning settle through the rhythm of ashram life.
From understanding to practice
A more attentive way to teach
Therapeutic teaching begins with listening: to the body, to the person, and to what is needed in this moment.
Here, anatomy and sequencing meet quieter practices, breath, bodywork and the devotional roots of yoga. The aim is to leave with a broader set of tools and a clearer sense of how to use them.
- Adapt postures and sequences for different bodies and levels.
- Guide Yin, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra with greater clarity.
- Connect functional anatomy to the practice you see in front of you.
- Develop attentive hands-on skills and practical teaching confidence.
