Experience makes the difference

Byron Yoga Centre’s part time Non-Residential Sydney Teacher Training Course is a complete experience with 6 weekends over 6 months.
The course includes training by Australia’s leading yoga training academy with some of the world’s most experienced trainers.

Established in 1988 by John Ogilvie, Byron Yoga Centre is one of the longest running yoga schools in Australia.

The lead teachers have over 20 years of knowledge and expertise each.
John Ogilvie  is the founder and director of Byron Yoga Centre. John has been teaching yoga for over twenty years. He encourages a light heartedness in our approach to yoga and to ourselves.

Liz Dene, a master trainer for Network Pilates, teacher trainer for Byron Yoga Centre and a senior presenter for the Australian Institute of Fitness will also be teaching on the course.

Teaching yoga consists of more than simply the skills required to perform asanas correctly or knowledge of anatomy and physiology. Ultimately, the path to teaching yoga with awareness and understanding involves deepening your own practice.
