Yoga is expanding all over the world bringing inner peace and many health benefits to practitioners. However, yoga has the potential to do much more. In the west, we often see the original yoga, commercialized and downgraded to a bodily workout or something that people do just with their bodies. Yoga has always meant to be more about the mind and about using the body to go into postures that will help the detoxification and relaxation process. After all, the asanas are only one of the part of the eightfold path of Patanjali. On top of this, the modern human being is restricted from experiencing higher states of consciousness or yoga (state of union) from limiting beliefs and energy blockages. This new yoga teacher training will offer participants a first-hand experience of what is possible through yoga by removing energy blockages that the participants might be experiencing, by cleansing the body and the mind and by going deep in the practises of the original yoga. If the 200Hr was called the path to Self or to Awakening the 300Hr would be called the path to Mastery or Liberation.
The program will last for three weeks and the first week will focus on asanas. Every day of this first week will focus on a particular type of asanas. After a break, a swim and lunch, the afternoon sessions will be about practicing further and going deeper into what you learned in the morning.
The second week you will practice asanas together in the morning, and in the afternoons, you will focus on yoga philosophy, pranayama, human anatomy and different types of meditations.
Over the second week, participants will become much more capable of controlling their life energy by removing limiting beliefs and by revitalizing their different energy centers.
Attendees can expect to explore new viewpoints on different aspects of their life and as a result, experience more trust, abundance, mental, physical and sentimental balance, greater self-esteem and self-confidence, compassion, non-attachment, and to be more capable of communication at all the different levels.
The third week, you will become more comfortable with teaching as you will practice teaching to your fellow students.
Although every day and week will be different, there will also be similarities throughout the weeks. Every morning participants will meditate together with an experienced meditator; there will be plenty of time for swims, breaks, hammock time and massages. There will also be excursions to beaches and places of interest on the island, dinners out and plenty of summer outdoor movie nights—the perfect way to chill out after an interesting and fruitful day of training.

If the 200Hr was called the path to Self or to Awakening the 300Hr would be called the path to Mastery or Liberation. It is going to be a training for committed practitioners happy to overcome their lower tendencies, to have cold swims, to manage cold weather, to perform all the yogic cleansings, to practice Yoga holistically and to release blockages and limitations with love and respect for all their parts but also with self discipline. With respect and love for their guides and with the intention to heal and to approach higher states of consciousness in a harmonious and effective way. The training is inspired by Paramahansa Yogananda and Babaji and will focus on the spiritual aspect of Yoga, Samadhi, Connection to Soul, guides, Higher Self, Source, strengthening our intuition, using yogic techniques but also breathwork, conscious tuning, regression therapies, emotion code and other healing techniques. There is going to be growth inspired on all levels such as asanas, teaching, pranayama, mantras, mudras, anatomy, teaching, Bhakti, Jnana, Karma Yoga and Yogic philosophy.
This program intends to give birth to a new breed of yoga teachers. Participants that will emerge out of this program will have experienced what yoga is really about, will have achieved a significant shift in consciousness and will be in a position to inspire students and practitioners from different parts of the world to join into this consciousness revolution and have positive and meaningful impact on them while experiencing abundance at all levels. The trainees will receive a certification 300Hr Yoga Alliance accepted throughout the world and will be capable to lead a class of students in all the different types of asanas, pranayama, meditations, mundras, bhandas and sound healing.
