I had been wanting to take my yoga teacher training for a while and have walked away with more than what I could have asked for. Beyond the extensive and thorough knowledge you will attain from this course, Antonina has the skill of introducing such diverse, rich and complex concepts in a way that ignites an inherent interest and curiosity within you that you will carry with you though your own practice. Could not be happier with my experience. Thank you once again! ~ Brenda Costa, New York

Overview

Welcome to the inHarmonyPeople School of Yoga & Ayurveda!

Our courses are designed for and open to:

– the public interested in self-care, health maintenance & healing
– all yoga teachers wanting to advance their knowledge 
– 200hr yoga teachers wanting to become advanced 500hr yoga teachers.

This MODULAR PROGRAM is flexible to adapt for those who cannot take a month off their busy schedules. The 1st module is offered online via pre-recorded lectures while Application Module 2 is an in-person immersion retreat in our beautiful Harmony Home Wellness Place in Malaga, Spain. 

Taught by Antonina Ramsey, an experienced C-IAYT Yoga Therapist and Ayurvedic Practitioner, along with seasoned guest yoga teachers who are also therapists, professors, and medical professionals, this program offers a uniquely powerful perspective on yoga for health and healing.

In the inHarmony Integrative Health model, the Yoga Teacher focuses on the therapeutic yoga and educates and guides clients to 

 

continually engage in the process of restoring or maintaining health with lifestyle medicine interventions, stress management tools, movement, breath work and other yogic holistic practices.

Our advanced training is divided into several parts that can be completed over 2 years to allow for assimilation and application of knowledge. 

To acquire mastery, one needs years of education and practice and Yoga is no exception. We decided to go back to the ancient Indian Gurukul method of yoga education – learning gradually in small groups as a way of living through experience and with personal attention from the teacher. Our courses are for those people who look for deep knowledge and practical skills rather then for a quick yoga teacher certificate. No certificate or accreditation will assure your success as a Yoga Educator /Teacher/Therapist. Yoga is still not regulated by any government anywhere and it will be this way for any foreseeable future. Your success will be defined by your clients and depend highly on how effective you are in helping your clients to reach their health goals. Clients can tell a great teacher from an ok one.

Antonina is a wonderful teacher with so much knowledge. Her training was amazing. I learned so much from it and have completely changed my yoga practice and the way I teach from doing this course. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wanted to deepen their yoga knowledge and advance their teaching abilities. ~ Sara Chan, UK, 2020 300YTT (a Nurse Practitioner & 500hr RYT)

We have trained more then 200 beginner and advanced yoga teachers over the last 12 years. Our students came from around the world: US, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Switzerland, Poland, Sweden, Dubai, the Emirates, UK, Ireland, Finland, Russia, and many other countries. All became wonderful yoga teachers who successfully share the magic of Yoga for Health with the world full and part-time.

Our international groups is an added bonus to the training experience as it is so much fun and enriching to spend weeks together with people from different cultures and traditions. Beautiful bonding and friendships came out of these trainings.

Atmosphere and Student Desired Profile

For every student there is a perfect teacher and for every teacher there is a perfect student.

This course IS for you if you are eager to learn, friendly, kind, patient, understanding, flexible, adaptable, forgiving, and thoughtful. Or working towards these qualities. 

This course is NOT for you if you are negative, critical, egotistical, impatient, inflexible, unkind, demanding, and passive-aggressive. We at inHarmonyPeople are so passionate and eager to share therapeutic yoga and Ayurvedic Medicine with the world that we have no time/desire to deal with difficult and negative personalities.

Realistic Expectations: Please keep in mind that even though this training is a wonderful experience of personal growth, healing and kindred-soul connections (especially the in-person part of it in Spain), this is an intensive professional training with a rigorous schedule requiring concentration and dedication from both – the teacher and the student. It is not a relaxation retreat.

Correct Goal: please note that if your goal is personal healing and transformation, please chose one of the inHarmony Wellness or Ayurveda Retreats most suitable for your needs. We will be happy to guide you to your optimum health and pamper you. 

Environment: Our trainings are always international and require flexibility and non-judgmental approach from all participants. Your values can be different from another person’s values in the group.
Because Yoga is an art and science of the mind, please be prepared to explore the psychology of Yoga and the deep recesses of the mind. If you tend to feel overwhelmed by minimal stimuli, please take this piece of information into consideration.
Conduct: Our 6 people maximum groups are small and we strive to create a non-competitive, relaxing and friendly environment because we know that optimal learning happens when we are relaxed and enjoy ourselves. At the same time, we are serious about what we do and adhere to high standards of teaching. Even though this course takes place in a relaxed resort-like atmosphere, there are clear basic rules of conduct that need to be observed and followed. Please note that due to the rigorous study schedule and time constraints, conversations during class sessions are guided and mediated.
