As part of the 500 hour training we include two "at home" assignments.
Here is the first set. Around 60 hours of guided study.

"Coming on the Bodhiyoga Teacher Training is like doing yoga for the first time – really doing yoga, with my body and mind. I have found the course to be a journey of exploration and discovery, intensive learning and practice and I am leaving confident in my practice, motivated and inspired."- Holly Murray, London, U.K.

We are back from our Northern tour.I personally felt really privileged to be able to teach in such wonderful places. Dhanakosa just into the Highlands Scotland was spectacularly beautiful and we taught a full retreat with Amitashuri as meditation teacher and Angela as Organiser making 31 of us doing the retreat in the spacious Dhanakosa Retreat Centre.

Our first event in Suryavana this year will be at the end of April, called the "Fundamentals of Mindfulness Yoga" and we will explore our Mindfulness approach to yoga. Suryavana Retreat Centre is proving to be an excellent practice place, easy to get to from Valencia. Padmashalin our cook is now resident at Suryavana and thanks to Lu Turner and friends the gardens and orchards are in better condition than ever.

Sraddhagita is a Buddhist yoga practitioner of many years experience and teachers and lives in London.

I am going to compare Buddhism and yoga in terms of the body and practice.

In a few days Sadhita and I travel to the "mystic" north of the British Isles to teach a yoga and meditation retreat with our friend and colleague Amitashuri, with Angela, one of our 200 hour students and friends supporting the event. Straight after the event we go south to London to teach a workshop at the London Buddhist Centre in Bethnal Green.

Lucy Turner who trained with us at 200 hour level in 2016 handed in her assignments when we met here in Valencia. She graciously is offering a week of gardening work at our retreat centre Suryavana hence the photo from the front yard.
