About this Retreat
Details of this retreat
Kranti Yoga is please to offer a weekly Yoga Intensive Course directly on Patnem Beach. This course is suitable for students of all levels and the course is designed so that you can learn about yoga whilst enjoying the comforts of a beach holiday. The course will be adapted to suit your ability and prior knowledge of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. It is ideal for those who would like to develop or deepen a daily yoga practice without the responsibility of becoming a teacher.
The course will provide you with the fundamentals of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga: breath, bandhas, vinyasa and drishtis. Alignment Classes will run alongside Led Ashtanga Yoga Classes for you to gain familiarity with The Primary Series. Technical workshops will take place in the afternoon for you to focus on key areas such as hip opening, backbending and transition techniques.
This course would also be ideal for those of you who would like to develop a practice prior to yoga teacher training. It provides an insight into what Ashtanga Yoga is and allows you to start developing an Ashtanga Yoga pratice if you haven't been practicing Ashtanga Yoga previously. The course gives you a taste of what to expect on your YTTC and can be considered as a Pre Teacher Training.
Technical Workshops will take place in the afternoon for you to focus on key areas such as Backbending and Jump Back techniques.
