Pre-training requirements
The pre-training preparations are established to bring the body, heart and mind into alignment that you may arrive in Bali for the teacher training with clear intention, openness, and integrity.
Daily practice
Start practicing 4 to 6 times per week. We will be practicing 6 days a week for about 5 hours each day (asana, pranayama, meditation etc.). Integrating a regular yoga practice into your life now will help you prepare for this intensive sadhana.

Gain clarity of intention

Dissolve any expectations
Inspire yourself
Soften and open to possibility
