This unique program is offered online monthly and gives trained teachers and serious practitioners a chance to interface with the Shantarasa Senior teachers across a vast range of subjects. Subjects are chosen and delivered as presentations and discussions according to the interest and need of those enrolled. Some sessions are purely practice oriented.

If you are a trained or training teacher this is a chance to refine understanding and skills and be guided through the many aspects of teaching and situations you may face in your interface with students.

The program guides personal practice and refines understanding across the full range of  yogic practices.

We cover subjects such as:

• Assisted asana and guiding individual sessions

Students and teachers attend from many countries and become a supportive community of seekers and professionals throughout the program.
