100-Hour Yoga & Ayurveda Teacher Training in Costa Rica

The training runs for about six to seven hours a day, six days a week, with one day off to rest or explore. You'll cover a full curriculum: asana theory and practice, pranayama, meditation, yoga philosophy (including the Bhagavad-Gita and Yoga Sutras), anatomy, sequencing, and teaching methodology. You'll also get a solid grounding in Ayurveda—doshas, elements, chakras, and how to apply these principles to your own life and teaching. The style is a mix of Vinyasa and alignment-based Hatha, with an emphasis on the more contemplative practices like yoga nidra, mantra, and chakra work. The lead teacher is Matea Zajec, who brings a rare combination of Eastern religious studies and a long personal history with Ayurveda. She's joined by Acyuta, who teaches meditation and the business side of yoga, including how to build an online presence. The group is kept intentionally small—never more than six participants—so you get plenty of personalized attention and can really dig into the material.
