1. A Holistic Curriculum Rooted in Yoga Tradition and Personal Growth

At Eden on the Chocolata, our 200-hour yoga teacher training delves deep into yoga philosophy, history, anatomy, asanas, and breathwork. But we go beyond the basics. Our curriculum emphasizes personal growth, introducing tools for self-exploration, self-compassion, and personal transformation. With offerings in pranayama, chakra exploration, and guidance on sequencing classes and ceremonies, you’ll leave with a solid foundation to confidently guide others on their yoga journeys.

In addition to yogic teachings, we include wellness practices such as sound healing, breathwork sessions, and workshops in somatic and inner child healing. These powerful practices are guided by seasoned practitioners, helping students gain a profound understanding of the mind-body connection, inner healing, and the potential for yoga to inspire others to live more mindfully and healthily.
