october 4th – 29th 2021
Have you been dreaming of completing your 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training with salty hair, sandy toes, wearing no makeup, and listening to the ocean waves crash on shore? Can you imagine finishing a sweaty sunrise yoga practice, then strolling down to the beach for a swim and a fresh coconut?
Join Kanami and the team of teachers at the Yoga One Love Shala in the idyllic beach town of Puerto Escondido in Southern Mexico for a 26 Day journey into the Art of Teaching Yoga. Enjoy the freedom of having weekends off to have time to digest your yoga studies and enjoy the abundance of activities to do in the Puerto area.
Explore breathtaking beaches, release baby turtles, go horseback riding, join a sunrise dolphin watching tour, check out bustling weekend markets, or try out the world-class surf breaks of Zicatela and La Punta….if you dare! Puerto Escondido is known as a surfing Mecca due to its infamous and absolutely giant wave on Zicatela beach.
Regardless if you are looking to become a yoga teacher, or are just simply interested in learning more to strengthen your personal practice, this transformational journey is a must for the adventuring yogi! You will receive a 200 hour Yoga Alliance accredited certification upon graduation of this course.

One love boutique hostel
One Love is the original Boutique Hostel of Puerto Escondido. It’s cozy, surrounded by nature, and has a rustic feel yet still provides high-end comfort and facilities. Located in La Punta, Puerto Escondido, only footsteps away from Zicatela Beach, this is the ultimate location for your 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training!
It’s extremely close to the best surf spots, restaurants, cafes, and shops, but is far enough away to still feel quiet and peaceful: perfect for laying back and relaxing in a hammock.
One Love’s design is inspired by 60s hippie philosophy of peace, love, and brotherhood combined with surf, rock & roll, and beach life. It’s a place to meet, share experiences, spark ideas, and an oasis for long-term travellers.
Once you’re here at One Love you’ll never want to leave!

THE TRAINING
This comprehensive 200-Hour Teacher Training Program will transform your practice, pass on the ancient teachings of yoga, and give you all the tools required to teach a solid Vinyasa Power, Flow, and Hatha yoga class.
Our curriculum is Yoga Alliance approved, and upon graduation you are eligible to become a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with the largest international nonprofit association representing the yoga community.
You will also have an incredibly supportive community to help you on your journey, and you will gain lifelong friends during the course who will continue to support you for years to come.

WESTERN & YOGIC ANATOMY
Learn the western anatomy of bones, joints, connective tissue, muscles, breathing, nervous and circulatory systems, injuries, and as well as basic prenatal yoga. You will also learn the energetic effects of yoga on the body, and will study PRANA in detail. What it is, the different techniques that direct prana, Kundalini energy and its infinite potential, the chakra systems, bandhas, Ayurveda, the vayus, and the nadis.
MEDITATION & PRANAYAMA
Practice different styles and techniques of meditation and pranayama (yogic breathing exercises) everyday. Develop a deep understanding and connection with both so you can easily share their immense benefits with your students.
HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF YOGA
Study Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita, and how these teachings provide a very real model that can be applied to daily life. You will also get to discuss and learn in detail about Yoga’s journey to the West, and the most influential yogis of our time.
THE BUSINESS OF YOGA
Discuss the ethics of yoga, code of conduct, and important qualities of a successful teacher. Learn about the business of yoga, defining your mission, marketing yourself, and setting your goals and dreams.
PRACTICE TEACHING
The fastest way to becoming a great yoga teacher is practice, practice, and more practice. Students will be given plenty of classroom time to plan many styles of classes: from a challenging, fast-paced Power practice, to a super mellow, relaxing yin stretch-out, and everything in between. Emphasis will be made to try different classes out on each as often as possible during and after the course. This is a great opportunity to receive feedback, get creative, and learn from one another.
