Hey there! I'm Stefan, and I run small teacher trainings in the beautiful southern province of Sri Lanka. Here, I’ll be really happy to share some information about our fun little training with you.

Our trainings are limited to 20 practitioners - We want to meet and connect with every one of you, learn your names, your stories and give you the most transformative experience possible. We are not interested in producing cookie-cutter teachers. Our focus is on small numbers and quality graduates who infuse knowledge, confidence, and their own unique personality throughout their classes.

You will learn Alignment Based Vinyasa that utilises the latest science and information based on the traditions of classical yoga.

Our modern approach allows you to take your practice to the next level whilst ensuring the safety of your students through a deep understanding of alignment and pose modifications.

We explore postural ideas from both modern and classical Iyengar Yoga, giving the body an opportunity to realign and adjust into advanced alignment.

As a result, you will begin to feel and look different as you express your body’s full potential.

Our 200hr Yoga teacher training focuses on 3 main areas:

-   Developing your personal yoga practice

-   Studying yoga ideas and philosophies in depth

-  Developing your communication skills to translate your knowledge into effective and inspired teaching.

1. Developing a strong personal practice: With a focus on movement, posture, meditation and breathwork, we rewire your practice to be more safe, strong and expressive. This is further refined through workshops that help you understand your practice from a place of personal experience.

2. Deepening your understanding: Utilizing the comprehensive training manual you will be guided through yoga philosophy, anatomy, teaching skills, yoga industry, the yogic lifestyle and much more. This will allow you to delve deeply into what yoga is really about, facilitating transformation both on and off the mat.

3. Communication: You will learn to apply your new knowledge in a teaching context. You will have the opportunity to practice teaching from day one communication games, and individual and group teaching exercises with a focus on improvisation. These exercises are not only important for your personal development but also act as comic relief – helping to keep the whole experience light-hearted and fun!

Amazing place and teachers to learn Synergy Yoga. Great focus on teaching skills as well as having a profound understanding of Synergy principles. Head teacher Stefan has extensive knowledge in different yoga styles and learned with different well-known teachers and therefore can give instructions and insights not only from synergy yoga perspective but how different yoga styles can be incoporated in synergy yoga. The course also offered a great base to understand the anatomy and physiology, to understand the body and asanas from a scientific perspective. The Synergy Yoga YTT offers the posibility to combine yoga philosophy, physiotherapy knowledge and adds danceprinciples. Full Review

I highly recommend this YTT for all practitioners of yoga -- whether you are just starting or want to deepen your practice. The instructors were highly knowledgeable, warm, and taught from a genuine place of passion. The retreat itself was stunning, located right on a beautiful lake with sunrises and sunsets that are unbeatable from the property's balconies. The meals were satisfying and delicious. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. I had a transformative experience at Lanka Yoga and would be happy to recommend it to all yogis / travelers. Full Review
