Looking out across rolling hills and the ruins of an old monastery, the setting offers a constant reminder of the beauty and stillness that surround us.

OTHER SHALAS

GANESHA YOGA SHALA
Ganesha is a spacious and light filled yoga hall featuring wooden floors, exposed beams, and large windows on both sides. The natural light and fresh air create a comfortable environment for practice, study, and group sessions. An adjoining balcony opens onto sweeping views of the Andalusian hills, providing a peaceful place to pause, reflect, or connect with fellow trainees between classes.

THAI YOGA MASSAGE

Thai Yoga Massage is an ancient healing art with origins in Ayurvedic medicine, Yoga and Buddhism. It has evolved into a unique and magical combination of deep stretching, rhythmic compression, soft tissue manipulation, gentle rocking, energy balancing and acupressure.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Deep Tissue Massage is a therapeutic treatment that works on the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue to release tension, improve mobility, and support recovery. Particularly beneficial during intensive yoga training, it can help ease muscle stiffness, improve circulation, and promote a greater sense of physical wellbeing.
An ideal way to support your body and enhance your experience during your 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training.

Love From Our Students  

I have two young children, I live in the United Kingdom and I have a full time job, and it wouldn't have been possible for me to conduct my training in a three week intensive. But I can take the training as a Hybrid...

I found the online materials to be really clear and accessible, and the knowledge checks were really useful...

The in-person week really supported me in stepping up to design and teach my own class... which feels like a huge achievement not only for myself but as a testament to how good this training is.
A Truly Transformative Experience – So Grateful for Frog Lotus Yoga Hybrid Teacher Training
Completing the Frog Lotus Yoga Hybrid Teacher Training Programme was nothing short of life-changing. The hybrid structure made it realistically possible for me to complete the course around my schedule, and I’m so grateful for that flexibility. Being able to dive into the content online at my own pace, and then deepen the experience with the in-person immersion, was the perfect balance.

The in-person week felt like a retreat in itself—an absolutely magical and safe space. The environment was so nourishing, not just physically but emotionally and spiritually too. Every single person I met was kind, open-hearted, and supportive, which made the experience even more special. And the food… wow! It was beyond delicious—thoughtfully prepared, nourishing, and full of love.

By the end of the training, I felt so accomplished and genuinely proud of myself. I left not only with a solid foundation in teaching but also with the confidence to actually go out and pursue it. That’s such a powerful gift to walk away with.

If you're considering taking this step, I can't recommend the Frog Lotus Yoga training enough. It’s an incredible journey of growth, learning, and connection. I feel so lucky and thankful to have been part of it.
