Our home for the training is a peaceful, off-grid cabin nestled amongst the bush in Tallong, NSW. Accommodation is shared, simple and comfortable, inviting you to slow down and reconnect with nature.

The beauty of this place lies in its simplicity waking to birdsong, gathering around the fire, sharing nourishing meals and experiencing the spaciousness that comes from stepping away from the busyness of everyday life.

One of the gifts of this retreat is the opportunity to unplug.

No Phone reception, and there is no Wi-Fi at the property.

Yes. This is a 50-hour Continuing Education Training designed for yoga teachers and dedicated practitioners wanting to deepen their understanding of Yin Yoga, somatic awareness and embodied teaching.

The 50hrs are made up of the four day immersion training, along with self reflection practices. We also plan to have a few video pratcie before hand. Its isn’t designed to feel like homework but rather an opportunity to deepen learning and embody what you’ve already experienced during our time together. At this stage, the training is certified by Marou Home rather than accredited with Yoga. Alliance. We intentionally created it this way so we could offer something that isnt confined by external curriculum requirements. Our focus is on providing a deeply experiential training centred around somatic nervous system attunement, authentic connection and the embodied pratice of yin, rather than simply meeting accreditation standards. This can be added as 50hrs with other trainings for insurance like IICT
