Yoga Philosophy and Meditation

with Shikhaa in July

Hot Yoga Lower Hutt | $1,200 / $599

NZYC 300hr training Module 1 (Yoga Alliance continued education & open to public participation).

12th-15th & 26th-28th July 2024

This course is for everyone, regardless of experience levels. It is an invitation of self-discovery through the profound benefits of meditation and ancient wisdom. No prior training necessary, just simply and open heart and mind.

Shikhaa is a modern spiritual teacher who shares the teachings from the Vedic tradition of non-dualism (Advaita Vedanta) in a relevant and accessible way. Shikhaa lived in India for almost 4 decades, immersed in a yogic lifestyle of meditation and satang (self-awareness) with an enlightened sage. She has returned to N.Z to established a meditation centre in Te Horo. We are fortunate to have Shikhaa offering this unique experience at Hot Yoga Lower Hutt.

It can be completed as one of four modules for the 300-Hour yoga training, as continued education through Yoga Alliance or for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of yoga and meditation.

As a part of the 300-Hour training:

Time: 8:15am-6:15pm

Cost: $1,200

For the course itself/ YA continued education:

Time: 11am-4:30pm
