Our 200 Yoga Alliance Teacher Training is for anyone interested in self exploration and personal development. Our program presents yoga as a path to search inside ourselves to discover our true nature and how to fulfil our unique purpose and become the person we are meant to be.
The study of yoga is not just the study of physical postures, but also the study of universal values and truths found in most religions, philosophies, psychology, literature, and science. Students in our training are encouraged to be critical thinkers as they study, examine, question, and investigate the ideas presented in the course. Yoga is not a religion. Yoga is not a cult. Yoga does not require a certain belief system. Yoga is a path to find the truth within and each individual is free to choose if yoga is the path for them.
This course is not a commercial mass market training catering to large groups. The Ubud Yoga House is a boutique yoga studio specialising in small group trainings in order to maintain the authenticity and integrity of the yoga teachings.
