I decided to join the Inner Guru Training not because I really needed the teacher certification, but rather because as a Palestinian in these times of genocide, I needed to dedicate time to myself, to body work and inner work to build up (inner) strength and peace, as well as endurance. I have been practicing yoga for twenty-five years with the same mastress and I was wondering if I would be able to adapt to other styles. And more importantly I was wondering if I would be able to be with a group of people for three weeks all day long given my fragility.
I have to say that the experience surpassed all my expectations. Eva and Serena facilitated the training in a very intelligent and subtle way, complementing each other in their practices and provoking intelligent and very divers discussions. By doing so they did not only transmit techniques and knowledge but also a way of being together and practicing yoga in every day life, rather then only on the mat. I am very grateful for this beautiful and rich three weeks ♡. And finally I need to mention the sublime space of the Yoga Shala in the middle of the Jungle, with a very attentive and careful team which made sure we had all we needed outside of the training sessions.

Take up the opportunity to enrol in this truly state-of-the-art training, with full attention to detail, 2 senior lead teachers, 2 senior guest teachers, and only 12 students, in the most dreamy, purpose-built setting.
Sri Yoga Shala was built for Yoga in its truest form, with Dharana (focused attention) and Dhyana (unfocused attention) at its heart. Yoga means “to yoke” body, mind, and heart through breath. One translation is “skill in action”—which surely not only happens on a Yoga mat, and surely isn’t about the type of pants you wear. However, with that—as with everything—you also make (un)conscious and always political decisions.
Curious to learn more?
The training is led by four Sri Lankan women (2 lead teachers and 2 guest teachers). The two lead teachers have each been practising for more than 25 years. While all four have their roots on the island of Sri Lanka, they also each have a foot in Germany, the UK, or Australia.
Together, they bring experience in traditional Hatha Yoga (Sivananda and Krishnamacharya), Ta**ra / Yoga Philosophy (as taught by Daniel Odier, Louisa Sear, Rose Baudin, Shiva Rea, Sally Kempton, and Sianna Sherman), Kundalini practices as taught by Yogi Bhajan, inspiration from Tibetan Buddhism (ordained by the Dalai Lama), Vajrayana and Mahayana Buddhism, Sufi traditions, Partner and Acro Yoga (Jason Nemer), Body-Mind Centering® and somatic practices, aspects of decolonising the practices and naming where we received our knowledge from, life experience spanning more than 45 years, the perspective of two mothers of two children, and so much more.
Learn how to go deeper on your own journey, and how to share these practices with others.
