TRAIN TO BE A YOGA TEACHER
LEVELSIX is pleased to announce our second 200 hour yoga teacher training programme. Our team of accomplished teachers will provide a supportive environment for learning, creating and studying yoga to deepen the understanding and practice of yoga.
The programme will fully certify teachers to work in different environments, from teaching group yoga sessions at studios and in the workplace to individual yoga interventions. Reflecting the core values of LEVELSIX, it will also incorporate skills development for teaching yoga to community groups.
This course is certified by Yoga Alliance USA which is a fully recognised Registered Yoga Teacher certification.
COURSE DETAILS
All the modules will be based on relevant theory, and will be experiential and engaging.
All our trainee teachers will be mentored to feel supported and guided during their training and beyond.
Students will be able to enjoy half price classes at LEVELSIX during their training to enable full immersion in the practice of yoga and completion of the required practice hours for the course. Students will also be eligible for 20% of food and beverages in the LEVELSIX Cafe during the weekend modules in Peckham.
We will provide a learning environment for students to reflect, practice, give and receive feedback, including discussions, Q+As and mock auditions.
Students will be insured during their training to carry out practice classes.
LEVELSIX Intensive Week, Spain (11th - 18th September 2021)
LEVELSIX Peckham, Weekend Modules (October 2021 - January 2022)
Full dates below
LEVELSIX INTENSIVE WEEK, SPAIN
The course opens with an eight day intensive week in Cadiz, Spain.
Suryalila is a beautiful old renovated olive farm consisting of eight houses that form the cortijo. In typical Spanish style there are two inner courtyards, one of which blooms with orange and lemon trees.
The property sits on 50 acres of land and is still a working olive farm with 800 olive trees as well as home grown organic vegetables and fruits and chickens for eggs.
Suryalila is nestled serenely in a large open valley in the foothills of the Sierra de Grazalema. This majestic mountain range can be seen looming large on the horizon behind Suryalila. A striking part of the natural beauty of the property is the breathtaking vista extending in all directions: rolling hills, fields of sunflowers, and lakes. The sense of vastness and expansiveness is very uplifting.
With three different yoga shalas, and several styles of beautiful accommodation, this is the ideal place for a serene yoga teacher training.
Food throughout the week is provided by the amazing Suryalila kitchen team. They pride themselves in offering sumptuous banquets of delicious gourmet vegetarian and vegan-friendly organic food. They grow as much of their own food as possible and keep their own happy chickens who provide the eggs.
