Indiv Yoga is a yoga teacher training school in Europe, registered with the Yoga Alliance, that runs yoga teacher training programs and certifies students with yoga diploma certificates in RYT 200 hours YTT, RCYT (registered children’s yoga teacher) Kids Yoga Teacher Training courses, and the YCEP online 30 hrs Foundations of Teaching Meditation and Mindfulness Yoga Alliance continued education course.
I no longer give classes because I travel too much to be able to have a regular class schedule, although I do hold Yoga weekend retreats in Switzerland, speak at seminars or give corporate workshops. As part of my Karma Yoga I give free yoga and meditation classes in Switzerland usually by Lake Geneva, or free workshops sessions for local children. Please follow the Indiv Yoga Switzerland Facebook page to receive updates on my local events and sign up to the Indiv Yoga newsletter
I lead the Yoga Alliance 200 hr Yoga Teacher Training Course a few times a year, usually in a beautiful large villa in Portugal, and the Yoga Alliance RCYT (Registered Children’s Yoga Teacher) Training Course usually once a year in Cyprus and in Switzerland. I also run the 30 hrs Foundations of Teaching Meditation and Mindfulness online course for yoga teachers as a YCEP (Yoga Alliance requires all yoga teachers to take 30 hours of continued education every 3 years).

Because you will get to deepen your knowledge and practice of yoga and be able to share the incredible benefits of yoga, pranayama and meditation with others. Courses are kept to a maximum of 10 students so that we can work on your objectives and personal yoga practice and you’re needs aren’t lost in a large group of students. You can bring your new skills and expertise to helping family members, friends, colleagues, kids and your local community be happier, healthier and more peaceful. What a gift! You will also meet amazing people in a supportive environment and train to become the best allrounded, professional and confident yoga teacher you can be. You will feel completely comfortable to give private yoga classes, group classes at yoga studios, yoga classes in persona and online yoga classes. You will learn about yoga philosophy, history, anatomy, physiology, sequencing, teaching methodology and more. It is not a yoga vacation but an intensive course of personal transformation. Work hard and play hard to become the best yoga instructor you can be! Make sure you read our amazing reviews and click below for more info. 
I’ve trained in various styles of yoga and have always tailored the classes I give to the health and objectives of those attending. However I found that many of my clients suffered with some form of anxiety, and therefore slow or dynamic flow oriented classes were more suited to them. But I train my Indiv Yoga teachers to be able to apply the principles of Hatha, Vinyasa and Restorative Yoga to create sequences that suit the people they are teaching.
You need to have a minimum of 1 year of regular yoga classes to be able to do the course, but more important is the motivation to certify as the best yoga teacher you can be! I’ve trained students that had 1 year of yoga experience that ended up being better teachers than other students that have been practicing yoga for over 20 years!
It depends on the description, so it could be a yoga retreat, meditation retreat or a mix of yoga, breathing exercises and mindfulness retreat. Sometimes they are more specialized like a Buddhist Meditation Retreat or Flow Yoga Retreat. The long weekend retreats are like a mini yoga vacation, where you recharge your batteries, relax and restore, and all classes offered are optional in case you just feel like lying in bed! They are often in the Swiss Alpa with breathtaking alpine views and the level of practitioner will vary from complete beginner to long-term yoga enthusiast or teacher. The week long retreats are a yoga holiday with more tine for spa treatments and relaxing by the pool/beach. They are an opportunity to completely disconnect from daily life, have a mental, physical and technological detox, meet amazing people and indulge in healthy living and deep relaxation. Join me on one of my popular yoga retreats to see what all the reviews are talking about on the newer Indiv Yoga Switzerland Facebook page (different from the Indiv Yoga page which is mainly for teacher training courses). 
This can vary but usually the 200hr Yoga Teacher Training Course is held in Portugal, and the RCYT Kids Yoga Teacher Training Course is in Switzerland, Cyprus and London. Sometimes yoga schools hire me to run courses at their studios in other countries, or I get hired to run retreats by hotels, organizations or private clients. Weekend retreats run by Indiv Yoga are held in Switzerland and week long retreats usually in Switzerland or Portugal, depending on my schedule.
Yes I often do private retreats and public events, including seminars and workshops. You can also book me to hold the 200 hr YTT and Kids Yoga TT at your yoga studio. Please use the Contact page to make an inquiry.
