ABOUT OUR RETREATS
JOIN US FOR A LIFE-CHANGING YTT IN
Bali, Indonesia
What sets a yoga class apart from a transformational yoga class? What skills do teachers still need support in after they come out of a 200 Hour YTT? What skills are needed to make yoga a career?
This inquiry through my more than a decade experience teaching yoga, and three years leading 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings, has led me to some key points that set yoga classes apart: pranayama, meditation, philosophy, and asana adjustments and assists.
As well, I know many yoga teachers who want to make yoga a career - but aren't exactly sure of the entrepreneurial skills necessary to make that happen.
After ten years in the industry, I've put together a 300 Hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training that is well rounded, addresses common knowledge gaps for 200 Hour YTTS - and helps you transition into teaching yoga as a career.
Join me in Bali - or online - and take the next step in your yoga career.

ABOUT OUR PROGRAM IN BALI
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN YOUR
Yoga Teacher Training
BEAUTIFUL ACCOMODATION
Several nights stay in beautiful, brand-new accommodation in Bali at Kampung Uma Dawa. You'll have a luxury villa and can choose either your own single room or a shared double room. There are two rooms in each villa which will share a dining room, kitchen, living area and luxury bathroom with a bath tub. Trust me - I've taught several yoga retreats - and this is the most luxury spot ever!
ALL CLASSES & LECTURES
Daily yoga classes and lectures with Alex and the team of assisting yoga teachers (two - three assistants per training) on the history of yoga, philosophy of yoga, science of alignment, coaching skills on how to lead sharing circles, and more. The yoga teacher trainers all have several years experience teaching yoga. Alex is a 500-ERYT and has trained over twenty yoga teachers since 2021, both with The Mindful Life Practice and other organizations.

WHY Bali?
THE LOCATION
Because from the first time I went there, in 2017, my experience was so transformative, I wanted to go back from the moment I left. I actually never wanted to leave. The only way I can describe it is that the island is so peaceful, spiritual, freeing, and joyful.
Bali is known as the “Island of Gods.” It includes volcanoes, rugged coastlines, sandy beaches, and rice terraces to explore.
THE RETREAT CENTRE
WHERE YOU WILL BE Staying
I would only want to host individuals at a spectacular location I knew would provide outstanding service, which is why I’ve chosen an intimate retreat center in Ubud, Bali.
You'll stay in a two bedroom luxury villa with your own kitchen, bathroom and living room, shared with one other guest. If you choose a single room it's the perfect way to connect with a villa-mate in a villa but still have your own private space!
Our venue has a swimming pool, over looking the rice paddies and clean, luxurious rooms. It is a short ten minute drive or bike ride away from Ubud, making it the perfect distance from the city center. Ubud means Medicine. Ubud is known for it’s healing energy, healthy food, and peaceful lifestyle.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner daily is provided. The facility tailors delicious meals to a vegan diet, but also can accommodate other dietary needs. Walk barefoot down to the yoga shala, fall asleep to the hum of the jungle, and wake up to pink sky sunrises each day.
THE PROGRAM MODULES
WHAT YOU'RE LEARNING
MODULE 1: BREATH PRACTICES FOR MENTAL HEALTH (50 HOURS)
A lot of 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings barely cover the practice of Pranayama. I felt I didn't understand pranayama until I started leading 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings ten years into my career. Once I began regularly practicing and teaching the material, I saw it's tremendous benefit. Pranayama, or controlled breathing, is an essential mental health tool that can help our students reduce anxiety, regulate their emotions and find balance. In this 50 Hour Module you'll learn in detail how to practice and teach pranayama - not just for yourself but for others.
MODULE 4: YOGA SUTRA STUDY BOOKS
1 - 2 (50 HOURS)
The Yoga Sutra Study course is an advanced yoga philosophy program. The first chapter of the Yoga Sutras defines yoga, the aim of practice, and the various problems that will come along the way as we work towards t
