50hr Training - Holistic Healing with Yoga & the Gita

The 50hr Training: Holistic Healing with Yoga & the Gita is a yoga teacher training in continued education format, held at Suryalila Yoga Retreat Centre in Andalusia, Spain. It is led by Michelle and Vidya, and it suits yoga practitioners who want to deepen their practice and understand the connection between mind and body more closely.

What to Expect

This is a 50-hour training that brings together the physical, the energetic and the philosophical. You learn tools to support all kinds of issues and injuries, and you explore alignment, hormonal health, immunity and nervous system balance. These topics are approached through yoga, with attention to how the body and mind influence one another.

The wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita runs alongside the practical work. Vidya teaches this part, so the study of the Gita sits next to the study of the body rather than apart from it. The aim is a way of practicing and teaching that treats a person as a whole.

The Setting

Suryalila Yoga Retreat Centre is in Andalusia, in southern Spain. It hosts yoga teacher trainings, guided retreats and self-designed stays, set among the hills and natural parks of the region. A training here takes place away from everyday routines, which gives the material room to settle.

Before You Go

The training is described as continued education, so it is aimed at people who already have some yoga practice and want to go further, whether they teach or simply study. Anyone considering it should look at the programme details for any requirements on prior training.
