Move like you. Feel like you. Fully embody you. Find out how here.WHAT TO EXPECT
Are you ready for your life to meet you in your yoga? Do you want to dive deeper into the philosophy, teachings, and practices of yoga but don't know if you want to be a yoga teacher at this stage?
You’ve come to the right place.
Think of this like yoga university where you don’t have to ‘escape’ to a tropical island to completely immerse in the teachings and the support of a like-minded group.
On this incredible Rise Yoga 100 hour Immersion you will:
* Dive deep into the Tantric philosophy of Waking Up - a practical toolkit and illuminating view of the world divined by ancient yogis to yogify your whole life, from the inside out.
* Learn techniques of mantra (science of sound), pranayama (breath work), kriya (cleansing), meditation and movement methodologies that will upshift your asana practice (yoga poses), and your life.
* Explore the anatomy of embodiment - a deep, felt, empowering understanding of belonging and wholeness within your own body to learn what yoga pose 'alignment' really is.
* Learn the theory and practices of yoga psychology and Non-Violent Communication to help dismantle unhelpful mental constructs and patterns of behaviour (with yourself and others).
* Take all of this into a deep 3 hour daily sadhana (devotional practice) over the 10 days, of mantra, pranayama, kriya, asana and meditation.
* Transition back into your life with your own consistent and self-nourishing yoga practice, supported by a community committed to the same path.
* Develop a greater understanding and embodiment of what deep aliveness and fulfilment really means for you, and how to bring that forth into everything you do.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
This is our signature 100 hour immersion programme and can be completed on its own. There will be no required teaching components to this part – perfect if you’re keen to deepen your practice and your knowledge of yourself without the stress of studying to be a teacher.
A little yoga experience is helpful but anyone with a curiosity for movement, for stillness, for this rich tradition, and the enriching journey back home to self, will receive so so much from this immersion. If you're unsure about whether your experience is enough, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for a chat.
If you’re considering teaching yoga, by the end of the immersion you will know what the right next step is for you. If you decide to teach, the next step is to add on a Rise Yoga 100 hour Teacher Training (which, combined with your 100 hour Immersion, gives you the required Yoga Alliance teaching certification).
DATES & LOCATION
We’ve purposely dedicated time between the two “retreat” dates to integrate the material in your day to day life, with weekly support to keep the connections and self-inquiry going.
Please note, there are two in-person dates for the full immersion:
May 27th - June 1st AND July 22nd - 27th
Both are held at our favourite NZ Retreat Centre, the Beautiful Tauhara on the shores of Lake Taupo.
INVESTMENT
We have designed our Immersion tuition fees to be as affordable and inclusive as possible, while still making the event feasible and sustainable to run.
Payment plans are available and we have limited scholarship spots for genuine financial need.
YOUR FACILITATORS
Sarah Hon and Mari Colbert, together with some of NZ's best guest teachers of movement, yoga philosophy and mythology, biomechanics and trauma-informed movement methodologies, bring over 40 years of collective experience. They both teach from their direct, rich embodiment and personal experience, informed by devoted daily practice and continued professional development.
Both Sarah and Mari are constantly learning and deepening into the infinite laboratory of movement, somatic therapy, trauma-sensitive yoga research, and the unending gift that is Non-Dual Shaiva Tantra - the life-affirming, world-affirming, body affirming tradition that gave us the yoga we practice in studios across the globe, as well as a diverse plethora of practices to support all beings in their ultimate longing to awaken.
