Introduction

 

Denmark or online Nov 4, 11, 18 & Goa, India Nov 27 - Dec 12, 2023

 

Welcome to KAILO’s 200 hour foundational yoga teacher training. 

Join us for a journey into the healing power of yoga and into the magic of sharing the practice. Covering the depths of yoga history, exciting philosophical topics and their application in the modern world, understanding of the body on the muscular, skeletal, neural and fascial level & of course into the soulful art of teaching. 

We focus on modern vinyasa yoga coming from the classical ashtanga yoga system. This teacher training is for anyone wanting to become a teacher, or simply want to get to know more and learn all the nitty gritty of the practice and poses. Whatever your intention is, the training offers a safe space to discover your calling. 

The training is offered in a hybrid version, meaning we facilitate partly in Copenhagen and partly abroad, in the motherland of yoga, India. 

The Copenhagen phase takes place over 3 Saturdays in November in our studio at the heart of Copenhagen (or online if you are not located in the area). This part will be all about a deep dive into anatomy and its application in yoga. In the beginning of December we’ll travel to India and spend 2 intensive weeks on the west coast in an oasis with a beautiful Shala, delicious food and cottages close to the water and surrounded by nature. 

Our 200 hour teacher training will create a container of support, that will nourish your real voice and offer you tools to translate this beautiful ancient practice into your understanding, and into whatever is honest and real to you. We can’t wait to share our love for the practice and the art of teaching with you.

 

By all means, this is a deep dive.

Our Indian oasis is nestled under a palm grove amidst abundant tropical flora and fauna on the unspoiled Mandrem Beach in the north of Goa. Mandrem Beach is still something of an undiscovered gem. The main road bypasses the sleepy fishing village, and the combination of turtle protection sites on the beach, together with there being no direct, public access means that the beach in front of the sanctuary remains remarkably quiet. 

We’ll explore five beautiful Yoga shalas at the resort, set within peaceful gardens amidst the coconut palms. From complete intimacy to open-aired immersion in the elements, each shala is fully equipped with props, and offers its own unique flavour to the perfect setting for mindful practice.

Tucked away on the shaded banks of a meandering river and abundant tropical nature, your journey in Goa will invite you to connect not only to the lush outer nature, but to even more abundant inner nature. 

NOV 4, 11 & 18 @ 11.00 - 20.00

Cam (@cam.origin) • Lead teacher

Born and raised in Denmark Cam always found herself seeking adventure, traveling to explore different cultures and challenging the comfort of home. When in Copenhagen she was riding high on the career path trying to balance a work life in the hectic (but creative) entertainment industry, sewing costumes, and teaching yoga. She soon realized that something needed to be set free, for the passion of yoga needed more attention. It might not make empirical sense, but this was the calling. She is now a 900+ hour yoga teacher and is currently unfolding her creative self (and dreams) through the creation and running of KAILO. 

With training ranging from alignment based Iyengar yoga, to soul-searching Bhakti yoga, Cam finds herself teaching wholesome classes with encouragement to explore your mental and physical edges, that serves beautifully to introduce you to your best and most brilliant self. Cam is dedicated to offer classes that balance the sweetness of inner as well as outer work, shedding light on our individual hidden treasures. 

Dom YTT

Dom (@koprdik) • Lead teacher

Dom was pulled into her first yoga class when battling anxiety. Yoga helped her to understand that there was more to herself and life than what she had ever imagined. Learning to implement this amazing practice in all spheres of life, Dom believes yoga is for everyone willing to get curious and explore - on or off the mat.

Dom’s teachings are all about creativity, playfulness and authenticity. She is 430hr trained in Ashtanga, Rocket, Yin and Vinyasa. Currently studying with Dylan Werner, getting her 300hr advanced yoga teacher certification.

Miz YTT

Miz (@natarajayogauk) • Anatomy teacher

Miz is a Yoga Alliance registered E-RYT500 and teacher trainer, currently studying Traditional Chinese Medicine practices with Yoga Medicine. She has an additional 250+ hours training in Restorative Yoga & Somatics, Yin Yoga & Energetics, Creative Sequencing, Tantric Philosophy, Qigong & Daoist Flow, Trauma Informed Practice, plus many many teaching hours with private students and in studios.

As an absolute anatomy geek, she has an obsession with researching every physical scenario she encounters - her knowledge on the body is endless and enthusiastically developed, including studies with Paul Grilley and Gil Hedley. She loves the nervous system, fascia, how our muscles and bones function and are structured, how this all works in different situations and different bodies; trauma release, work-based tension, postural conditioning, hyper-mobility, and more. Miz will be teaching the anatomy phase of your yoga teacher training in Copenhagen (or online).
