All the teachers at the Centre have taken an international teachers’ training course (recognized by Yoga Alliance).
These and other courses and workshops were created over 50 years ago in the United States,Canada, Europe, South East Asia and India. Each teacher goes through the same rigorous Gurukula system of training – learning by repetitive practice under the supervision of senior, more experienced teachers. They learn to have sensitivity, respect and a deep understanding of the human condition.
The yoga class and yoga system which we teach, is one of the most popular forms of yoga in the world today, easy to begin and to understand and to practice.
