200HRS WOMEN’S
YOGA TEACHER TRAINING

Choosing to do your 200-hour training is offering yourself an exquisite container in which to learn, be held, and dive deep into the world of the yogini. This training is held by female teachers who have been on the path of yoga, spirituality and wellness for many years. It is not a yoga boot camp with a huge group, dogma, strict rules and rigidity. Everyone is given individual attention and allowed to go at their own pace. A mature and compassionate attitude is upheld as well as a level of professionalism mixed with lightness and a good sense of humour.

We will support you in becoming an empowered and confident yoga teacher, who is able to share this wonderful gift with the world.

The Immersive

This 15 day immersion will allow you to reach into the depths and beauty of yoga. There are 15 days in person and the remaining hours will be given online to prepare you for the training before you arrive. There will also be assignments given and fun projects to complete that all contribute to the 200hrs Yoga Alliance certification. Having a shorter in person immersion will reduce the additional expense of accommodation while making it possible to take time off for yourself. Most trainings are 4 weeks long which can be quite challenging on an energetic level. We would like to increase the quality of our trainings by spreading them out over a longer period of time to allow a better integration of the yogic teachings.

The course is designed to empower you to go and teach the sacred! It contains all the necessary information you need to become a unique yoga teacher… and so much more. Sacred Journeys Into Yoga For Women helps you reconnect with your feminine essence while balancing both feminine and masculine energies within. This is a beautiful journey and a direct experience that can not be learnt from any book. It brings together all of the essential groundwork that is necessary to become a successful teacher and a powerful yogini in today’s world.

During the training, you will explore Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in many different ways. We will be working deeply with the Tantric Goddesses and the ancient texts of Tantra. You will understand how to create a Vinyasa style yoga class using the Ashtanga sequence as a base. You will also learn to open your heart through devotional singing and lead a chant. Embodied movement, yoga nidra, rituals and traditional tantra will be interwoven into the training, plus discussions around ethics.

These practices are opening - opening for your voice, opening for your levels of confidence and opening a feeling of empowerment in your teaching so you can take this forward into the world to support others. Movement and voice work will bring you deeper into your body. Discussions on ethics, consent, patriarchy within yoga culture, will take your understanding to a new level.
