Yoga Ausbildung im Soma Manaltheeram Ayurveda Beach Village

FIRST CLASS

Nestled amidst a sprawling tropical garden, on a scenic hillside overlooking the blue ocean, the Soma Manaltheeram Ayurveda Beach Village is surrounded by coconut palms and rice fields. The resort is accredited by the NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers) and was awarded the National Tourism Award in 2019 as the "Best Ayurveda Wellness Centre". A narrow paved path leads to the long sandy beach (please consult the lifeguard before swimming in the sea).

Under the open sky and with a view of the sea, enjoy 250 different vegetarian dishes at our Ayurveda restaurant, a variety of salads and fruit juices, as well as a wide selection of local and international delicacies and seafood.

The Hatha Yoga training courses at the Somatheeram International Institute of Yoga adhere to the stringent standards of Yoga Alliance International and Bharat Sevak Samaj, and are suitable for all levels. Upon successful completion of the training, participants receive certificates confirmed by Yoga Alliance International and Bharat Sevak Samaj, which are recognised worldwide.

Requirements

Practising and teaching yoga requires a high degree of self-discipline, purity, and clarity. Participants should also be self-motivated and open to new experiences. Basic knowledge of yoga philosophy and anatomy is helpful but not essential. To maximise the personal benefits of the training, it is necessary for participants to adhere to a vegetarian diet throughout the training, avoiding meat, fish, eggs, black tea, coffee, alcohol, tobacco, and drugs.
