This is a 28-day intensive, in-person Yoga Teacher Training designed for those seeking a deeper, fully embodied experience of yoga — as practice, as teaching, and as lived reality.
Led personally by Aje & Pratheesh, this training takes place at Hinterland Village, Kerala, where learning unfolds within the naturally regulating rhythms of village life, community, and nature.
This is not a fast-paced, performance-driven training.
It is a regulation-first, nervous system–informed immersion that supports sustainable embodiment, clarity, and teaching capacity — from the inside out.
Learn to teach yoga from steadiness, not strain.

All meals are vegetarian, nourishing, and thoughtfully prepared, using home grown and organic, locally sourced ingredients
Meals are shared in community, becoming a natural part of the learning and integration process.
