The Yoga Academy was founded in 1991. 

The Yoga Academy has daily classes in Ashtanga Yoga and Hatha Yoga. We teach the traditional form of Ashtanga Yoga with alignment, including Mysore and talked through classes. Our Hatha Yoga classes are characterized by precise alignment and attention to detail.

We have been registered with the Yoga Alliance since 2005 (RYS200 and RYS500). Our Training Director Jude Hynes ERYT500 supervises and teaches the Courses, with Peter Nilsson ERYT500 who is founder and director of The Yoga Academy.

As part of the Yoga Alliance Social Credentialing system, teachers that register with Yoga Alliance must submit a review of the RYS training program they completed.

Feedback from trainees provides Registered Yoga Schools with the opportunity to understand their trainees’ experiences in order to continually improve their trainings.

By choosing to display comments, schools enable trainees to provide insight into a school’s culture and training which helps potential trainees choose the right teacher training for their individual path with yoga.

    Im very grateful that I decided to start my yoga teaching journey at the Yoga Academy Auckland. It was an intense year, where I learned so much and really got to know myself. Jude has a wonderful ability to share her life long experiences and knowledge. The training is highly professional and well structured with a perfect mix of all aspects a teacher training needs. The possibility to experience your first teachings live in class under the guidance of Jude and Peter was a very valuable part of the training program. Looking back today, I am 100% convinced that this was the best decision. The teacher training enabled me to further grow into my own practice and step by step to build up my own teaching style. The support of the teachers at the Yoga Academy gave and still give me the confidence and strength to continue this path. Living now in Germany, where I still practice and teach, I highly appreciate the value of that profound training and remember my teachers every time I step on my mat.

    Thanks Dorothea We are continuing to embrace our aim to pass on the traditional teachings of yoga to those younger on the path and we are so happy to hear that you have continued over the years to practice and teach. We appreciate your support and send our aroha to you and your family. Om Siva, Siva om.

The teacher training course at the Yoga Academy is very in depth with a highly experienced and dedicated director, both in her personal practice, knowledge and ongoing research. Highly recommended. Full Review
