Why Train with Us

Our Multi Style Training is Personalised For You

Being a yoga teacher is not about how flexible you are, your size, your beliefs, your age, legging design or how ‘perfect’ you look in an asana.

The yoga you enjoy practicing is a personal choice, and at East of England Yoga School, we encourage you to develop your own individual and unique approach of teaching, in a ‘style’ that resonates with you.

Your focus may be meditation and mantra or Vinyasa; Chair Yoga or Restorative; perhaps bringing aspects of western movement and body work into your classes… or a combination of different styles.

Our Experienced Teachers Are Here For You

Laurence has developed a team of 'regulars'; Guest teachers that each offer something different. 

Our commitment to small group sizes means that you get dedicated guidance and instruction, so you don’t become a cardboard cut-out yoga teacher. We assist and guide you on your teaching path, giving you the tools, knowledge and practice for you to develop your own style and find your own voice. You will become the confident, individual and effective professional yoga teacher that you want to be.

Your Practice Will Never be The Same

Our courses are a wonderful opportunity to delve into yourself: physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually – a potentially life changing experience. As you open doors to new experiences, we are there for support and mentoring.

We motivate you to explore, develop, deepen and refine your personal practice, so you will teach safely from your own knowledge and experience.

We are Affiliated with Yoga Alliance UK

This means you can rest assured that our course has met high standards & has all requirements for Yoga Alliance UK registered training, For more info about what being part of the Yoga Alliance means, see our Accreditation Page.

And Also...

There are no hidden costs or extras with East of England Yoga School.

Even though we offer CPD, teacher get-togethers and post-graduation support, we do not lock you in to do your further CPD trainings with us. We understand that there may be other trainings and workshops that you may want to attend on specific topics according to your interests and teaching path, so we encourage you attend these as your CPD.

Testimonials

This experience has been incredible, the tutors are so welcoming, knowledgeable & nurturing. The course is so well balanced which allows you the opportunity to explore so much more than just the postural elements of yoga. This course has helped me build my confidence. Also all students are recognised & embraced for their uniqueness, which adds to the quality of the experience. We aren’t all expected to fit a certain expectation of what a “yoga” teacher is. 

Simply fantastic, I will miss you all, you all have a place in my heart.

Thank you.
