- Yoga is an ancient science that uses the body and breath to penetrate the mind and liberate us from suffering. Yoga is the path to enlightenment – Moksha.
- While there are many different authentic paths of Hatha yoga, we believe that they merge into ONE essential teaching that uses the body and the breath to liberate ourselves from suffering.
- Asana gives you freedom physically from illness and disease.
- Pranayama frees you from your regular breath and makes the pranic body vibrant and subtle.
- Meditation prepares an unstable and distracted mind for the inner limbs of yoga.
- We aim to give you the highest skills possible to teach and reveal the spiritual path underlying the practice so you can glimpse your true nature – Purusha (pure consciousness.)

- We want you to live the yogic reality – and to take the practice off the mat, integrate the knowledge into your life and share it with others.
- Deciding to teach yoga should not be a career move. It should be a sincere calling deep within your heart. Yoga Teacher Training is an investment in the future. Being an inspired and excellent teacher involves much more than getting a certificate. It requires dedication, discipline and years of continuous practice. You must also have a true desire to serve others in order to communicate to your students the true essence of yoga. Establishing yourself as a teacher is a journey of many steps: start your journey here and become the teacher or practitioner you aspire to be.

The real contact with deities and local devotion gave extra flavour and depth to the philosophy teaching. I couldn’t have dreamt for a more appropriate venue, which was comfortable and part of the monastery, which reminded us every second that yoga is spiritual. The way this TTC is promoted on the website is a perfect mirror of reality. The expectations of the teachers were high and their dedication to make us reach this level was incredible.

The high quality of teachers encouraged us students to raise our bar and challenged us to meet the standards that we were taught in.

Pre-course reading materials are exceptionally well organised and informative. The TTC Manual is outstanding. I will keep it for life. Highlights: The experiences on the road; Living in a monastery; Meditating with monks; The precision of the asana teacher training (in particular alignment, sequencing, and adjustments); The opportunity to have a glimpse into different types of yoga classes (restorative, pregnancy yoga, having a class at pranayama studio); The food.” – Sarah Subaey[/vc_column_text][/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”“Bringing us deep; You held a space for all of us“”][vc_column_text]”Main strong point (besides the wealth of knowledge!): Bringing us deep.

This created a group where we all could be and with no “black sheep.” Knowing a lot about group dynamics I see that this was mainly your doing; it’s the teacher who creates the group.

I realise that there is so much more to learn, and that this is just the beginning of my journey. I really enjoyed the asana training and the sequences were great. The instruction was clear and very helpful. I learned a great deal about alignment and a safe practice of yoga. All the information about alignment and anatomy was practical and I’ll be able to apply it in future classes.” – Marian van Sprakelaar[/vc_column_text][/vc_accordion_tab][/vc_accordion][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3971″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” mkd_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][no_button size=”large” target=”_self” font_style=”normal” font_weight=”400″ text=”VIDEO TESTIMONIALS” link=”https://eltonyoga.com/videos/” background_color=”#33bbb6″ hover_color=”#33bbb6″ hover_border_color=”#33bbb6″ hover_background_color=”#ffffff”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” oblique_section=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_single_image image=”1480″ img_size=”100×100″ alignment=”center” mkd_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_text_separator title=”YOUR INVESTMENT” text_in_box=”no”][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” oblique_section=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”3975″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” mkd_css_animation=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Prerequisites
To be accepted on the training, you need to have a completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training course. We need to make sure that you have the necessary physical stamina and mental discipline, but also to be embodied in asana practice. You should have a dedicated asana practice and true desire to begin a genuine spiritual practice.
Immersion-style training in Nepal can easily take you out of your comfort zone. You will live in an intimate setting with total strangers. You’ll share a room. You’ll be totally immersed in yoga practice (pranayama/meditation/asana, philosophy, anatomy & physiology, as well as the business of yoga and practical teaching) for 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, for close to a month. It can be intense on a physical and emotional level. There will be good days and vulnerable days and we will help you find equanimity in the process.
You will emerge having a taste of what it means to be a yogi.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” oblique_section=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_column_text]
