This 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training has been passionately created, from the many layers of Sasha’s knowledge, accumulated from their 20+ years of teaching but also as a direct transmission from her training with global teachers around the world, all that has been received, practised and embodied. The environment is supportive, empowering and full of non-judgemental compassion. We celebrate the raw beauty of life’s moments and the individual strengths each of us carry within. This training blends ancient and modern practices together that honour the roots of Yoga whilst staying relevant to our daily lives.
Our internationally accredited 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is for anyone who has completed a foundational 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training. This training adds on to a prior 200-hour certificate to total 500 hours. We have developed a retreat-like training that explores movement, the mind, community care, rooted in connection. Set in the beauty of the southern province of Sri Lanka.

“I am so glad I chose Shanti Yoga for my Teacher Training! Sasha is a wonderful teacher, guiding you through every step with compassion and understanding. You are given so much information and support, shown lots of different perspectives and pathways within yoga. Whether you would like to be a yoga teacher or are simply seeking to deepen your practice, I could not think of a better environment to take that step, you will learn so much about yoga, and yourself.”

“I am truly going to miss the amazing weekends we spent together, inspiring, uplifting, deep, and lighthearted. They have been a fantastic treat, shared with really wonderful people which has allowed me to grow as a person and yoga practitioner. The course was very comprehensive. The main take away for me is having built the confidence to teach a well-sequenced yoga class and to be able to transmit to others some of the wonderful feelings and benefits that I have received”
