YOGA IS FOR EVERYONE!

This is more than simply a program to gain a teaching certification – this is a program that will push boundaries and encourage you to evolve. Designed to ground and enhance your practice while learning how to safely and effectively guide others in theirs. Global Vinyasa provides a 200-hour donation-only training program that fulfils the Yoga Alliance standards. Students who complete trainings with Global Vinyasa are equipped to lead a safe and successful yoga practice with confidence, and are eligible to register as an RYT 200.

Global Vinyasa feels that it may be time for a change in the ideals and values of the “Yoga Industry” that we see today. We strive to shape the direction of what yoga may become tomorrow, and to preserve the sanctity of the origins of this ancient practice.

In recent years, yoga and yoga trainings have been shaped by marketing companies, social media, and the fitness industry without any understanding for what gives yoga it’s true definition.  The commercially driven side of yoga has edited away many parts of it’s fundamental elements in an effort to become more financially profitable.

We feel that it is important to protect the integrity of the roots of yoga and it’s philosophy, and to offer alternatives to current mainstream trends in the yoga industry.  We support a yoga that exists offline, a yoga that is not about clothing, egos, or marketing trends.  It is our desire to seek and explore a broader understanding of yoga and it’s many lineages.  How can we do things better?  How can we inspire change for future generations?

Thailand is a country of peace, harmony and beauty, the perfect place for a yoga training.  Koh Phagnan offers idyllic beaches, perfect weather, delicious food, and is a place which is free from the distractions of the world at home. Start your day with sunrise yoga facing the waters of the Gulf of Thailand and end with authentic Thai massage.  On this island, we are surrounded by the roots of yoga – the philosophy, the practice, the constant learning.

There are many programs that teach yoga the wrong way. Global Vinyasa was created by the desire to make yoga accessible to everyone, everywhere. The donation only TTs offered by Global Vinyasa are comprehensive and vital. Financial status and possibilities should not be a determining factor in who gets to become a yoga instructor.

Global Vinyasa owner and founder, Candace Welch (RYT-500) offers these donation-only yoga teacher trainings in Thailand. Her approach is simple – yet striking and unique on the highly populated horizon of yoga TTs – stay close to the root philosophical principles and practice of yoga. Global Vinyasa further ups the ante, however, by offering extensive anatomy and nutritional sections as part of the traditional Hatha and Vinyasa trainings, as well as providing the tools for each person to build his or her individual yogic lifestyle according to the authentic and purest principles of yogic philosophy. We strive to nurture a modern outlook to yoga, while maintaining the strongest of ties to its tradition and history.
