✨ Why do a yoga teacher training? ✨

For many, it doesn’t start with wanting to teach.
It starts with a quiet knowing — that something wants to deepen.

A desire to understand your practice beyond the shapes.
To feel more confident in your body.
To trust your voice.
To live yoga, not just practise it.

Yoga teacher training isn’t about becoming someone else.

It’s about coming home to yourself — with clarity, support, and community.

If you’ve ever wondered if it’s the right time for you to step into a teacher training, we’ve written more about it here.

A week late, but better late than never!

Last week we farewelled our wonderful ladies from the 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training. With a few last-minute cancellations, the group ended up being an intimate trio — and honestly, it was perfect. Everyone had space to be heard, seen, and supported, and we were able to tailor the training to what mattered most to each of them.

It was such a light, easeful, and joyful month. Thank you, ladies, for bringing your beautiful energy and open hearts. We learned, explored, and expanded together in the best possible way.

And tomorrow, we begin again — welcoming our November YTT group. Excited to meet these new souls and start another incredible journey!

Thanks Liforme for the feature!

It’s been a week since our wonderful group of teacher trainees graduated and left the cozy sanctuary of our Yogi House in Taupo.

Most of them were international travellers, so it’s been exciting to follow their journeys and see where life has taken them next. New Zealand is such an incredible place to explore post-training — and it’s always a joy to see our graduates adventuring through it!

As for us, we’re preparing to leave Aotearoa for the winter. We’ll be spending most of our time in Malaysia, and in July, Joleen is off to Thailand for a 5-week Ashtanga training — something she’s super excited about!

We’ll be back in New Zealand this October, just in time to host our 300-Hour YTT (13 Oct – 7 Nov 2025). If you’re ready to take your practice and teaching to the next level beyond your 200 hours, get in touch — we still have a few spots left.

Our next 200-Hour Training will run from 17 Nov – 5 Dec 2025, and there’s only one space left! If becoming a teacher is calling out to you, don’t wait too long. That time of year is stunning, with summer just around the corner and long, warm days ahead.

We hope to see you on the mat in a few months!

Sunrises like this are just part of the YTT magic ✨

Morning mist, lake views, and hearts full of anticipation for what lies ahead for the day. Our Yoga Teacher Trainings in Taupo offer more than just a yoga teaching certification — its deep transformation, community, and nature at its most breathtaking.

Grateful for this journey, our students, this place, and this practice.
