"What an incredible and life changing experience! I really couldn't imagine that I would be a confident yoga teacher, but the Yoga Prema team were amazing in the way they coaxed it out in each one of us during the 8 amazing modules. The experience, depth and knowledge of Lila, and each of the guest teachers, was outstanding. They live & breathe what they teach and never failed to inspire me. They were all very supportive throughout! I recommend this course to anyone who has a passion for teaching yoga and deepening their own practice." Sharon, Yoga Prema Teacher Trainee 2018
"It's hard to put into words what a wonderful and rewarding experience the Yoga Prema Teacher Training Course was. It was an amazing opportunity to live and breathe yoga, following a traditional teacher training programme which includes satsang, kirtan, lectures and meditation. The course changes people’s lives for the better and is an excellent foundation in yoga practice, philosophy and teaching. I came away with a massive enthusiasm to teach yoga and the confidence to take this journey forward. I also met a wonderful group of people who will be friends for life..... I really couldn’t have imagined anything better.” Laura, Yoga Prema Teacher Trainee
We teach traditional hatha yoga giving you a solid foundation from which you will develop your teaching skills and methods. We explore through study and practice, an inspirational integral system including all paths of yoga;, Hatha, Raja, Bhakti, Karma and Jnana. Although there are different paths, their essence all weave together to form one golden thread... Our teaching inspiration for hatha yoga comes from the traditions of Sivananda and Iyengar. Bhakti yoga adds sweetness to the practice and connects us to the spiritual heart and divine love.
