Ashtanga Vinyasa
Yoga Teacher Training

I feel so honored and blessed to have had the opportunity to be part of this teacher training. Within just 3 weeks I have learnt so much... So much about myself, so much about the practice, so much about how I can integrate into daily life and so much about this beautiful family I am now part of. The training was so well constructed and facilitated by incredible instructors/ teachers.

I had not taken part in a full Ashtanga class before so for me it was such a challenge, but the teachers helped me every step and I can proudly call myself ashtangi (always growing) Yoga has been a huge healing process for me both physically and emotionally and this training has challenged me in more ways I can imagine.

So thank you Allyoga, David, Kim, Kamal and Ounay for this special journey. All my love.

If anyone wants to become certified and doesn't know what to choose. This course is very good for aspiring. Ashtanga is a style you will learn from then create your own sequences into vinyasa. I liked that we did explore several types of yoga like Karma, rocket, yin and so one.

David is very insightful in his field and assistant Kim also was lovely. They made sure we stayed together like a family here.Having fun outside of. and they organised everything for us. Making sure all the time that you were not left behind. The course offers assistance even after your training finishes. If you have questions you can always be sure to get a reply back.

We had workshops in different poses like headstands and I never thought I would be able to do it, then i did it! It was amazing. The training can be very intensive and some days we were tired but our teachers make sure we get rest also.

And the island here is amazing, very friendly people and more quiet. The shala is right next to the beach. It was a very positive experience, and I also managed to surf for the first time, good experience!

This course is great! Great teachers who are passionate about yoga, experienced and knowledgeable. It is a real journey of self-discovery both mentally and physically. The group quickly becomes your family. Everyone is very supportable and respectful of each other. Being one of 3 males in a predominantly female environment was absolutely fine, too! Great to be introduced to different forms of meditation, too, to be able to pick one that suits you, also to enjoy the different forms of yoga apart from Ashtanga. Wholeheartedly recommend this experience.

The training was one of the best and most intense experiences of my adult life. Initially I wanted to take the training last year in February, just after I finished my PhD in legal philosophy. I was interested especially in the philosophy part back then, learning about Eastern philosophy since so far I had only been studying Western philosophy and I feel that there was an important part missing. But the training got cancelled due to the pandemic. Luckily, the training could take place this year. By now I had a pretty regular Ashtanga practice and my focus had shifted. I was hoping to improve my practice and to learn more difficult poses. But then, just before the training was about to start, I injured my rip and this injury threw me back in my practice.

So at the beginning of the training I was not able to go fully into all the poses as I was used to, and that was mentally really challenging. For the first time, I was not able to do everything with my body the way I was used to. But then, after an initial struggle, I learned to accept and this acceptance opened a door to a full new experience of yoga. Instead of focusing on what I could not do, I started to focus on things I could do and had some real breakthroughs with some asanas.

I learned so much more than I expected: about myself about how to interact with others and about letting go. I met truly wonderful people and found a whole new connection to yoga, which I really look forward to deepen. As our amazing teachers always told us: “Yoga will not give you what you want, but what you need.” Oh, and in the end my rib injury had healed and I was able to do all the poses I was used to, to increase my practice and to even learn some more difficult asanas – but at that point I did not even care about that anymore. Thank you!
