About the Course

​

Yoga is a practice that continues to grow more profound the more you explore. A journey back to the Self. 

The goal of Yoga is to lead you along a path to self-realization of inner love and peace. To Union.

Whether you wish to explore this practice more deeply for yourself or feel you are ready to share with others by becoming a teacher, this course will give you the foundations that will allow you to expand in whichever avenue you wish to venture. 

Turn into yourself and experience the world of Yoga over nine weeks in a part-time 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training with Shakes Yoga. Training will be held in Queensland, Sunshine Coast, Cotton Tree and Maroochydore.

During this fully immersive course, together we will experience the foundations of this ancient practice, deepening your understanding of asana (posture), pranayama (breath), dhyana (meditation), and the philosophy & lifestyle of Yoga.

This 200-hour teacher training course will facilitate a space for students to promote personal leadership and build confidence, self-awareness, creativity, and knowledge to take their practice to a new level. 

Teacher training is just the first step to uncovering even more inner potential.

Mission Statement

Atha means now, one of the most profound insights of spiritual practice: To bring us very deeply into the present moment. Atha is this kind of call of action for us to wake up now. It can be a mantra for daily living that moves off the mat and into our lives, bringing us back to what’s happening now.

This Yoga Teacher Training aims to provide a detailed foundation for Yoga, taking from the ancient teachings of Hatha, Ayurveda, Tantra, and Raja Yoga and adapting them to suit our modern lives. Whether you choose to teach or not, the course will deepen your practice and knowledge of yogic life and allow for a journey to understand yourself further.

Our highest intention is to offer a yoga teacher training program that allows our students to reach their fullest potential in the study and practice of Yoga and Self.
