Who can do this course?

The pre requisite for this program is a minimum of 200HRS Yoga teacher training.

The 200HR level introduces the real Yoga, opens new doors and reveals the hidden depths of your practice. But it was just the beginning, it was a calling which brought you self development and showed you that you are more capable than you thought. The 300HR is a new level, for dedicated students and teachers who are already on the path, looking to build their confidence, a life and vocation around Yoga. Exceeding the standard and going further than most. Studying source texts, finding their own style and learning to weave wisdom into classes effortlessly.

*If you are not a Barefoot Yoga post graduate, you are also welcome to join us if you have foundational knowledge in Vinyasa (or Hatha), Yin, Anatomy & Philosophy!

Surrounding Area

Ahangama, South Coast Sri Lanka

We are peacefully located on the rice paddies, tucked away in the village and amongst the trees with stunning views on a large property. We are just a short 10 minute Tuk Tuk ride to the busy surf town of Ahangama, where you can enjoy all of the local cafes, shops, surf schools and beaches! The school is perfectly situated for studying, introspection and being immersed in nature for 21 days with conveniences close by. We live here all year round and feel very grateful to call this pocket on the south our home. We are 2hrs away from Colombo airport and close by to the national parks, safaris and other stunning stretches of coastline.

Is this you?

* Are you stuck with how to infuse meaning, philosophy and depth into your classes?

* Would you like to teach professional sequences to prepare people for peak postures and a more impactful practice but don't know how?

* Do you feel like your anatomy knowledge needs a refresh to help develop your students practices and prevent injuries?

* Do you want to offer more and become more familiar and confident in sharing beyond the postures and expand your offerings but lack the confidence?
