We have created a 200hr and will soon have a 300hr training that are Yoga Alliance approved and recognised. Our New Zealand 200hr Yoga teacher training on Waiheke Island is split up into 8 x 3 day weekend modules for your convenience and benefit. The modules are immersive but still allow you the very real benefit of being able to practice and teach in between modules. We offer residential accommodation or you are welcome to come daily.
We also offer our 200hr Teacher Training in India, which is an intensive 24-day program held at the Krisnatheeram Ayur Holy Beach Resort on the breathtaking cliffs of Varkala in Kerala.

What style of Yoga do you teach?
We teach a fusion of authentic, traditional styles that are heavily influenced by Satyananda, Sivananda Yoga and Paramanand Yoga. Essentially, this is Hatha Yoga, which is very much centred around heart and consciousness expansion and honours the birthplace of Yoga – India.
