Ashtanga yoga teacher training 

Who is it for?

To yoga practitioners with good experience, to people who already work in the field of movement, to those who want to improve their practice, to those who humbly want to acquire tools to help others practice better, to those in search, to those who are not satisfied with hearsay, ideological, religious, traditional systems, those who want to cultivate that wonderful attitude of being curious about how things work, those who have no interest in being called a Master.
