Course content

The course will be held in English, but Nadine and Lara speak fluent German, Lara also has very good French and Spanish skills, so if you are not a native English speaker, translation can be offered where questions arise.

The teacher training is suitable for those who want to embark on a career as a yoga teacher, teachers who would like to improve their current skills, as well as yogis who simply would like to deepen their understanding and improve their practice. Trainees often start as students and then decide to dedicate themselves more seriously to the study, investigation, and propagation of yoga. Some have had experience elsewhere and have reached a level where they feel ready to consider teaching. Others may have no intention of leaving their current work, but simply want to develop the knowledge and ability to confidently guide others in this rewarding practice.

This course will cover all aspects of yoga along with detailed instruction in the Quantum Method and how to teach it. A study of Ayurveda, the Science of Life, will result in an understanding of how this informs not only the emphasis on one’s yoga practice but also the effects of such lifestyle choices as food, recreational activities, creams, massage oils, etc. You will explore the roots of the yoga tradition, learning about its history within the socio-cultural context of India from ancient times to the present day, as well as its links to other mystical traditions and their role internationally today. Students will learn about a variety of systems and styles. Using the Quantum Method of yoga, apprentices will eventually gain the ability to assess what practice is appropriate for themselves and their prospective students and learn how to creatively construct balanced flowing vinyasa yoga sequences. As Quantum advocates Vinyasa (breath-synchronized movement) as a primary mode of practice, most asana classes will be of a dynamic nature. Pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation practice will also form a daily part of the practice.

There will be a variety of modules covering such themes as Anatomy and Physiology, Adjustments, Therapeutic Yoga, Post, and Pre-Natal Yoga, Yoga for Children, Asana names, groupings and sequencing techniques, ancient scriptures such as the Vedas and Upanishads, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita and the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Sanskrit, Ayurveda, Buddhism, Tantra, etc. Where applicable out-of-house specialists will run the modules.

Teaching will be both practical and theoretical on a group and individual basis, and there is a requirement for you to spend your own time reading and keeping a yoga diary. You will work to a full and exciting schedule, culmination in the assessment classes and re-takes, until everyone is confident to share the precious gift of yoga safely and intelligently.

The yummy and wholesome food on the course will be large, although not exclusively, vegetarian, while individual dietary requirements will be taken into account. The talented chef Abel grows and sells his own vegetables, so he will be using a lot of produce straight from his land, often harvested the same day you will eat it! The 2019 trainees absolutely loved his cooking and his kind, relaxed and unimposing presence. Catering for groups involved in spiritual practice, Abel ensures that meals complement and enhance the yoga experience, whilst leaving the group delighted and fully sated.

Lara lives in Ibiza and has been coming since 2002, so she knows the best massage therapists, healers, and other specialists, and can easily arrange villa visits. Please note treatments are at an extra cost.
