(No availability) 19 Day Truly Helpful 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Tulum

Overview

Truly Helpful and Yoga Quest University welcome you to join them for their spring retreat immersion into the wide, wonderful world of yoga at the gorgeous Maya Tulum Retreat & Spa in Maya Tulum, Mexico. This beautiful opportunity teaches a way of life and livelihood that will be truly helpful and life-changing.

This training is open to everyone who feels called to it, even those who don't feel called to teach, or those of you who have already completed a 200-hour training, either with Yoga Quest University or another school.

Program

The primary style of teaching you will learn together is Vinyasa flow. By the end of the training, you will feel confident in teaching a solid yoga class. Truly Helpful and Yoga Quest University also encourage you to practice and teach the style(s) of yoga that most resonate with you. As such, this course is more of an exploration of yourself and yoga than it is a training in a specific style.

A lot of emphasis will be placed on following your heart and finding your own unique voice and way of expression, even if you choose not to teach yoga. The skills and lessons learned from this training will well-serve you the rest of your life. They do not promote any worldview or religious dogma, but rather bring forward different viewpoints so that you might 'consider the possibilities'. They view yoga not as a religion but as a tool that can actually help you to practice your own faith and live your life more fruitfully.
