Yoga Teacher Training 2020

Teaching Yoga is such a blessing! What a wonderful way to share and connect with others. When we teach it forces us to focus on our own practice and to delve deeper into Self.

Join Izelle Nair, owner of Earth Yoga Studio and lead teacher, and learn the tools to teach confidently. 

Izelle leads a Hatha Vinyasa Yoga based teacher training with a progressive teaching practice being open to new expressions of yoga whilst being able to stay connected to the classic form of this ancient practice.

Through each week you will learn new skills as a yogi and delve deeper into the philosophy and history of yoga.  There is always the chance that as you progress through this journey that you uncover a part of yourself that has been waiting to be released and allow you to evolve into your true self.  

Find your strength, explore your mind, reveal yourself…
