Being Yoga present a highly integrated approach to the practice and teaching of yoga that makes this timeless discipline accessible to all.

This is a highly experiential, hands-on yoga training course with plenty of time spent applying the practices and teachings of yoga in a supportive group environment.  There is also a home-study and practice requirement for each session.

I feel privileged to have shared this Teacher Training course under the love support and shared wisdom of Vanessa and Michael.  I could not ask for better teachers.  This course has truly changed my life is so many ways and I will be forever in awe of the invaluable lessons I have learned.

The Mandala of the Awakened Heart

Being Yoga teach under the evolutionary system of vinyasa yoga.  The entire course is carefully structured so as to honour the wave like progression that is present not only throughout a good yoga session but also throughout all of the major events of life.  As such there are four pillars or modules that form the essence of this programme:

• Awakened Heart
• Align
• Enhance
  
• Observe

Being Yoga is blessed with more than just education but a vision and power that enables people to become awake to all that life is really about.  I know you have helped me realise more of who I am and more of what life is really about and always thank God that I met you.

The Mandala of the Awakened Heart - further details

Awaken Heart – The course begins from the recognition that within us all is a shining luminous jewel - self perfect, timelessly awake and innately pure.  Everything we do in yoga is simply a means to help us 'see' this more clearly.  This is more of an attitude than a practice, a way of being that forms the cornerstone of the entire yoga journey.

Awakened Energy: Enhance - The enhance module is all about the wonderful world of prana (life energy) . You begin to turn up the ‘juice’ both within your own practice and within life by learning to work with this vital energy through deeper pranayama, meditation and movement principles.  The focus is on how you can liberate your body, heart and mind of physical, emotional and psychological restrictions.

You will participate in a comprehensive study and practice of various yogic breathing practices beginning with re-training the natural breath and progressing to more advanced practices which stimulate and balance primary energy flows within the body.

Awakened Mind: Observe – During the observe module you will fall in love with meditation and come to understand just why it is regarded as the highest form of yoga practice. You will immerse yourself in a number of powerful techniques whilst on the supportive environment of retreat.   This module is about looking into yourself with a deepening sense of awareness and establishing an inner practice for life.  Many of the ancient yogic and Buddhist philosophies are explored in depth. 

Awakened Heart: Serve – following these three core modules, which represent an intensive immersion in your own practice of yoga, the course comes full circle. By taking this much time and care to work on yourself, teaching begins to effortlessly flow from the selfless space of an awakening heart.

Intensive and focused training is provided on all elements of teaching from correct alignment, giving adjustments, using appropriate language, planning a vinyasa class sequence and teaching to specialist groups such as beginners, seniors, pregnancy etc. Teaching begins in small groups from the outset, applying what is learned on each day.

Learning by teaching is the way of Being Yoga. Students can feel confident they have fully grasped the fundamentals of practice when they are able to teach these back to others.
