True North Vinyasa was founded in 2017, and ever since 2018 we have been offering high quality, small group foundational trainings in the art and craft of teaching vinyasa flow. 

Our students come to Portugal from all over the world, most on personal recommendations from former trainees. We currently offer one training per year, in immersive experience in a beautiful setting and with incredible food. This means you can focus on all things yoga and leave the world behind for just a little while. It also means as a lead teacher, myself and my team give this training all we've got during the 3 intensive weeks we have together.

We don't follow a lineage but instead encourage you to be authentically you, to be a critical thinker and to learn how to craft your own sequences and classes. This is a sustainable model and has helped our trainees to begin teaching and building their brand and business with confidence.

    I am so pleased I chose to do my training with True North Vinyasa. I felt safe, supported and inspired throughout my 3 week training and left with the confidence to start teaching ! I would highly recommend this teacher training to anyone considering.

    The training was very pleasant. Lisa and Elin were thoroughly prepared and supported us with a lot of dedication and seriousness in becoming yoga teachers. They showed us various aspects. It was a lot of fun, and I would recommend it to everyone.

    I have chosen the training based on the content it provides and have not been disappointed. Great delivery of training material through classes, workshops and group assignments. Throughout main teachers - Elin and Lisa are there to support everyone and you can feel that it's all well thought through and planned with care.
