Teacher Training by Yoga Flame

In Bali, even during the rainy season, the rain is sporadic and light, often limited to 2-3 hours and typically in the mornings, and not every day. The days are mostly sunny, providing a perfect balance for our retreat activities.

* Deposit: A 30% deposit is required to confirm your booking.
* Remaining Balance: The remaining balance must be paid 30 days before the retreat starts. If the balance is not received by this date, the booking will be released.

The program fee covers all training content delivered by over 20 teachers, including lead and guest teachers. You will receive a printed manual for note-taking and future reference. Additionally, you will have access to online resources before, during, and after the training to deepen your understanding of the course material. We may also have some surprises in store for you!

The program fee for Bali immersion offers flexibility to cater to different needs:

• Full Package: Includes both accommodation and meals. Ideal for those seeking a comprehensive experience.
• Accommodation Only: You can choose to cover just your lodging if you prefer to manage meals independently.
• Meals Only: If you already have living arrangements but want to include meals with us, this option is available.

Please note that flight tickets are not included in any of the packages.

For any questions, please contact us at info@yogaflame.ch 

The course will primarily be in English. Some of our lead/guest teachers speak French, and we can provide French translations for specific modules when required.

Yes, we suggest regular practice leading up to the immersion. Aim for at least 3 times a week for about 3 months before and after the immersion to fully absorb what you’ll be learning. Ideally, practicing 5 times a week will prepare your body for the immersion, as we’ll be practicing twice daily.

The immersion is hands-on with exercises, asana labs, pair teaching, and interactive practices. That said, feel free to sit back and observe if you need a break—observing others can offer valuable insights too! Another tip is to try our Yoga Flame sequence (either online or in-studio) once a week, about 3 months before the training begins. This will help you get familiar with the core practice.

Once you register, we’ll guide you on how to activate this special offer. Simply set a start date and make sure you have an account on our booking platform so we can apply the membership manually.

Absolutely! You can freeze your membership for two weeks outside of the immersion in Bali, which doesn’t count toward the suspension period.

Absolutely! In our trainings, we welcome both those who aspire to teach and those who seek personal growth. That being said, you might discover a passion for teaching even if it wasn’t your initial goal.

Yes, your physical presence is mandatory during the training period. You will receive preparatory materials, online content, and reading materials that do not require your physical presence before the course begins.

In our Hybrid training, 40% of the course is conducted online, which includes pre-recorded content and live online sessions. The remaining 60% consists of in-person immersion, held either in Bali or Switzerland.

You’ll need about 80 hours in total to prepare, including:

• 30 hours of pre-recorded videos that introduce key topics, with some reflection and homework exercises.
• 20 hours of live Zoom sessions with our teachers to dive deeper and answer your questions. These calls will happen between February and March, mostly on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 7-9 AM (Swiss time), plus two Saturdays—one at the start and another at the end of this period.

If you miss up to 50% of these Zoom sessions, no worries! You can catch up afterward by completing assignments provided by your lead teachers.

No, there’s no homework assigned, only the preparation time before the immersion in person starts. Free time is for you to rest and restore!

Bali:
We offer accommodations at Kayu Mama which many of our participants find convenient and comfortable. If you prefer to stay independently, we’d be happy to recommend other options that fit within your budget. Just let us know what you’re looking for (please reach out to us at info@yogaflame.ch )

Switzerland:
The training location is our home-based studio in Geneva, a friendly and vibrant city, especially in the summer. If you need accommodation during the training, please reach out to us at info@yogaflame.ch . We will do our best to connect you with our community to find a room or link you with other participants for potential Airbnb sharing.

Yes, we provide a printed manual. We will also recommend books for you to read before the training begins, and the cost of these additional books will be your responsibility.

We usually welcome between 10-15 participants. This ensures an intimate and supportive learning environment, allowing you to connect with fellow participants and receive personalized support throughout the training.

We are currently in discussions with our team of teachers and will release the final list very soon.

Depends on the location, our instructors primarily come from our studios based in Switzerland or Bali, and we may include guest teachers who have previously connected with our community.

All our teachers have senior experience, having led their own Teacher Training Courses (TTC) or assisted in TTCs to ensure high-quality expertise during the training.

Yes, absolutely! We welcome your partner or family members to stay with you during the training. We can tailor the package to their needs, ensuring a comfortable stay while you participate in the training.

We are a Registered Yoga School by Yoga Alliance Standards; offering 200HR Teacher Training ! This means that upon completing our training, you will receive an authentic, globally recognized certificate, that enables you to start teaching public group yoga classes. If you require more details regarding the certification and teaching opportunities, we are happy to provide them.

We plan to offer this foundational 200-hour Teacher Training Course (TTC) annually and may introduce more specialized yoga style trainings in the future, allowing you to further evolve in your chosen path. We will also provide opportunities to mentor a few students through donation-based classes, helping you gain teaching experience and confidence. Additionally, we will host 1-2 post-training Zoom sessions to reconnect, answer questions, share experiences, and support one another.

There’s no guarantee here, as each person’s path is unique and opportunities often come at their own time. We’ve seen all kinds of journeys unfold! That said, we’re dedicated to supporting your growth post-training and will prioritize graduates from our program for roles within our team. We’ll also share useful tips on the “Business of Yoga” to help you set off with confidence.

We value inclusivity and understand that the financial commitment of the training may be challenging. We are open to discussions with interested participants and can explore payment plans or karma opportunities based on the number of participants. In some cases, we may offer karma positions, allowing participants to attend the training at a reduced cost in exchange for assisting with training logistics. Please feel free to reach out to us at info@yogaflame.ch .

Once you have paid the deposit, you have the option to withdraw up to 3 months before the training start date and receive a full refund of your deposit (CHF500). If you withdraw between 3 and 1 month before the training starts, you will forfeit the deposit balance paid in advance. If you withdraw within 1 month of the training start date, the entire investment will be non-refundable. However, if we find another participant to attend the training at the last minute, we will be able to issue a full refund in all cases. Our aim is to ensure we don’t block a space unnecessarily and to have enough committed participants to confirm the course.

Enjoy every step of this journey! Start paying closer attention when attending yoga classes—what teaching styles resonate with you? Which ones don’t? Write down any questions that come up; you’ll have plenty of opportunities to ask them in Zoom sessions or in Bali. Lastly, connect with your peers! You’ll likely have much in common, and the friendships formed can be a big part of this incredible experience.
