Teacher Training Thailand

Well, you all have been asking for it and here it is!
Based both on Sara Avant’s book and the culmination of 15 years of her own personal and professional experience working with women around the world, The Way of the Happy Woman®: Women’s Yoga Teacher Training Level 1 offers an innovative approach to feminine health and happiness through integrating the ancient wisdom of Yin and Flow Yoga, Ayurveda, Taoism, and Buddhist meditation for women.

Our ancestors adhered to the daily, seasonal, and yearly rhythms of nature by necessity, but modern life overrides these cycles. This course will reconnect you with those rhythms. During these 5 days you’ll get in-depth, insider knowledge of the cycles of womanhood and how this wisdom can be applied to your own feminine transformation and empowerment implemented and into accessible, healing, inspiring yoga classes.

During this 5-day Women’s Yoga Teacher Training you will:

• Acquire the skills and confidence needed to take incredible care of yourself first and foremost as a woman and then teach yoga to women in all stages of their menstrual cycles.
• Understand how to work with infertility as well as how to cultivate a deeper connection with your own sexuality through yoga (and to how to help your female students do the same).
• Tap into your feminine power—how to share your vision and voice without sacrificing your softness.
• Learn intimately how to commune with your own inner and outer cycles.
• Laugh, love, and learn from other inspiring women!
• Contribute to the healing of the planet herself by empowering women to love and respect their bodies, their wisdom, and their intuition.

About Your Guide

SARA AVANT (Retreat Leader)

Sara Avant is an inspirational speaker, author, teacher, mentor, and founder and director of The Way of the Happy Woman®. The second oldest of four sisters and a Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude graduate of Columbia University’s Barnard College, Sara has spent her life delving into the center of her feminine heart, while inspiring and empowering others along the way. She took her first yoga class at age eighteen and sat her first Buddhist meditation retreat a few years later, and knew immediately that she would devote her life to helping others discover their own indestructible happiness within. After a health scare in her early twenties, Sara moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand, where she lived for nine years, embarked on an extensive healing and spiritual odyssey throughout Asia, and, as a multi-certified yoga teacher, served as one of the pioneer yoga teachers in that part of the world. Since then she has studied with many spiritual masters and has taught three thousand students in more than a dozen different countries.

She is the author of The Way of the Happy Woman: Living the Best Year of Your Life (New World Library), and her work has been featured in The Huffington Post, Yoga Journal, Fit Yoga, Pilates Style, and Yogi Times. Sara continues to teach around the world; and when she’s not living out of her suitcase, she calls the mountains of Boulder, Colorado home.
