Restorative Yoga Immersion & Teacher Training
We live in a world of constant stimulation, endless to-do lists, pressures to produce, and a nervous system that rarely gets a true pause. Many of us are running on empty, caught in cycles of stress and exhaustion. We don’t just need rest, we need deep, conscious relaxation.
Restorative yoga offers exactly that. Unlike sleep, watching TV, or having a glass of wine, restorative yoga is an intentional practice of deep support and surrender, an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and allow the nervous system to shift from overdrive into a state of true restoration.
Who is this training for?

Whether you're a yoga teacher wanting to incorporate restorative practices into your classes or someone seeking to better understand the science of relaxation, this training will give you the tools to experience and teach profound rest.

✔️ Understand the nervous system, how stress works in the short, medium, and long term
✔️ Learn how restorative yoga rewires the body & mind for relaxation and healing
✔️ Explore the power of breath—how it influences the nervous system and supports deeper relaxation
