What will you learn
During the course, the following techniques are applied in order to accomplish personal transformation for yourself.
Asana
Asana training and practice is your opportunity to examine the asanas in-depth and learn the science behind the physical practice. The proposed asanas are suitable for everyone from beginners to advanced and offer a holistic approach to health while focusing on chakra activation and energy circulation in the body. Two Transformational Yoga® asana classes are given daily for your personal purification and progress. You will also have the opportunity to get supervised teaching practice.
Pranayama
Discover the healing potential of your breath. Breathing techniques are an essential component of Hatha yoga. Benefits include improved concentration, more energy, deeper sleep, and reduced stress levels. Not only does it feed the brain, but revitalises the body, since breath is the bridge between the body and the mind.
Mantra
The science of vibration will be explored during the teacher training. Mantra chanting generates vibrations which are fundamental tools for altering the psyche and producing a tranquil and balanced mind. In yogic practices, the growth of our awareness progresses with the help of these vibrations. By cleansing our minds with mantras, decision-making becomes clearer, observation power is awakened; purification leads to improved concentration and a calm focused mind. Mantras will be translated and clearly explained.
Meditation
Meditation, Yoga Nidra, and other relaxation techniques are included in the Transformational yoga teacher training course in order to give you an experience of your pure natures, in which your egos dissolve and you find inner silence. You will be introduced to dynamic and still meditation. In addition to this, you will learn a variety of tools to help unlock your inner wisdom and access your true potential.

Show
Camille Gicquel is chairperson of Yoga Alliance International, France. Camille was born in the west of France and got introduced to yoga thanks to her mom, an experienced practitioner, who convinced her to attend a class of Hatha yoga thinking that it may help channel her energy and anxious nature, and it was a revelation! However, after studying a diversity of fields and working in a lot of others, something was still missing in her life for her to be truly happy. She has a love for travelling and thirst for discoveries, encounters, and new experiences.
