Practice, explore, learn, grow, connect, and play
The inner critic far too often takes the steering wheel. Learn how to tap into the wisdom of your inner teacher. Imagine what it would feel like to have the time and space to replenish your spirit and liberate your soul with no responsibilities other than your own well-being. Are you ready to transform, to embody what it feels like to be healthy, vibrant, and aligned?
If you have been looking for a yoga teacher training that encourages personal growth and creates a safe, sacred space in a stunning location with a loving community, you are welcome to apply. The foundation of this course is based on Hatha and Tantra philosophies and will explore the many other facets of the Yoga practice. Through meditation, conscious communication, awareness practices, and physical movement, you will gracefully transform the energies.
There is nothing more powerful than an immersive experience, and the relationships you build are priceless. They understand how important ongoing support and community connection are even after the training is complete. This is one of the features that makes the training so unique. They have created an online Foundation Course for you to plug into, stay connected, and continue growing. This allows them to not only support you within the magical jungle of Costa Rica but also as you weave your new teachings into daily life.
It can be overwhelming to integrate all that you have learned in the training once you are back home, and yoga is a lifelong journey after all! Included with your training, you will gain access to the online foundation course, which includes reference material, a deeper look at anatomy, an asana guide, powerful awareness practices, a system to help develop a steady daily practice, community support, monthly workshops, and mentorship calls.
Program and Itinerary
Join internationally accredited 500-hour E-RYT teacher and lifelong student, Stacy Sinclair, on this immersive transformational journey in aligning with your authentic self. This yoga teacher training provides the space to go deep, get confident, and peel away the layers of doubt and shame holding you back. Learning is accelerated, confidence is amplified, and new habits are formed.
Develop a rock-solid practice and business that supports you through life's ups and downs. It does not matter if you have spent years practicing or are just beginning; this training is open to all levels. Sacred Journeys Yoga believes that the practice of yoga is a continuous journey that you can hop on at any stage of your life. Taking your first yoga teacher training is more about setting a strong foundation to support the best version of you by filling your cup up first. Only then can you truly bring your best teachings to the world.
When you come together for this immersive experience in Costa Rica, you will dive deep into the practice. You will explore the intimate connection with the natural world and how to flow with the 5 elements in divine guidance.
Each day includes two yoga practices, in the morning to invigorate and in the evening to restore, and two daily meditation or pranayama practices. Asana labs consist of breaking down the postures, sequencing, proper alignment, and theory, anatomy workshops, practice teaching, and adjusting.

Instructors
Stacy Sinclair
Stacy has always had a passion for health and she believes a positive well-rounded outlook is a key to maintaining balance in mind, body, and spirit. In 2006, she graduated with a Remedial Massage Therapy Diploma. She loves doing massage but she started to feel restricted in the ways she could connect with people. In 2012, she received her 200-hour teacher training certification, and that one small decision completely shifted her life. Stacy is so grateful for all of the wisdom she has gained from this magical journey and she remains a consistent student of the yogic practice.
