What is Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga
Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga merges the principles of the chakra system with the dynamic and flowing movements of vinyasa yoga. The chakra system consists of seven major energy centers in the body, each linked to different physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of your life.
In Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga, you match specific vinyasa sequences with the energy and themes of each chakra. Each practice focuses on a particular chakra, using yoga poses and flows that stimulate and balance that energy center. For example, grounding poses like Mountain Pose and Warrior Pose are used for the Root Chakra to help you feel stable and safe.
In addition to the thematic poses and sequences, Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga incorporates breathing exercises and meditation techniques aligned with the chakra being focused on. Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga offers a holistic and transformative practice. Through the integration of movement, breath, and intention, Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga supports balance, awareness, and harmony both on and off the mat. By aligning and activating your body’s energy centers, Chakra-Vinyasa Yoga offers wonderful healing tools to help you connect more deeply with yourself and the world around you.

Schedule
Tulum is known for its Instagrammable cafes and gorgeous beaches. But it is also considered one of the sacred energy centers of the earth. It is for this reason that Yoga Academy International has this area for their Luxury Chakra Yoga teacher training and yoga retreat. While this course is an intensive teacher training, they’ve made sure to schedule in plenty of break time so you can relax, rest, and explore your surroundings. If you’re joining for just the yoga retreat, you are welcome to participate in any yoga classes and evening activities that you like! The training theory and workshops you’ll sit out.
Each morning will start with a chakra-themed Vinyasa-style yoga flow class followed by meditation. Then we take a break for breakfast. Afterward, you will learn Chakra-Vinyasa yoga theory. A lunch break follows with ample time to chill out, enjoy the beautiful grounds of the property, or maybe even take a quick outing to check out some sites or go for a hike.
After lunch, you continue the course with workshops, discussions, and more. In the evenings, you will break for sunset, and after dinner, you will enjoy evening philosophy, Q&A time, or just hanging out.
