¨I left feeling empowered¨
It can be really hard to know what course to go for when looking for a yoga teacher training. There are so many options out there. I followed intuition and decided to take my 300-hour YTT with Pranaluz in Costa Rica and it was INCREDIBLE! I Have been teaching yoga for some years and so can be a challenging customer as I really know what and how I want things! This course was so well structured with fantastic teachers, people who live and breathe what they teach. it was structured in a way that Analu knew what we would need and when both as students and from an emotional perspective. She brings in a great variety of teachers from all over the world. I highly recommend this course. I left feeling empowered, and prepared for my next steps, having had a project to prepare and present as part of our assessment¨.

¨Life-changing experience¨
This training is life-changing. Analu is a world-class instructor who has a remarkable ability to break down complex spiritual teachings in a digestible, captivating way. She makes her teachings unique to YOU and what will make the concepts click in your brain and in your heart. In addition to thought-provoking lectures, our days were filled with adventure, connection, and time for introspection. And not to mention the delicious fresh food. I did not have a meal in the 5+ weeks that I didn’t thoroughly love. This training left my mind, body and spirit nourished. I felt supported by Analu every step of the way, from planning the trip, to making it home and every moment in between. I could not recommend the training, and more specifically an instructor more. <3 I carry the memories and learnings with me every day.

¨Incredible¨
“I spent 5 weeks with Pranaluz 300 YTT in Costa Rica and I look at it with great gratitude and sense of complement. I think it’s incredibly rare to create a program so well balanced, thought-through yet elastic to guide you through your yoga teaching development. Analu and all the guest teachers were involved in the training are truly inspiring and so easy to connect to at the same time. You get challenged, tested, and pushed forward but always feeling like it’s a safe space with love and kindness to do so. All the new knowledge and materials you get are mind-blowing and the yoga energy you have the chance to tap into transforms your practice to better serve you and others. Pranaluz has also a magical way of attracting just the right energy for the training, so experiences you get to share and exchange with other students are just as big of a gift as the training itself. Taking that on top of it all the locations are Costa Rica's most beautiful locally run hidden spots, there’s really noting that I can recommend more for an aspiring yoga teacher than to join Pranaluz Teacher Training.

Also how to work with different clientail and bodies in studio or in private. Sunshines forget to mention about events like Kirtan, Full Moon Ceremony and Mantras made this training more unique.

¨Magical training beyond my expectations¨
This training went beyond my expectations and filled my heart and soul with love and knowledge. Analu and Jono are amazing individuals with so much to share and I am grateful that I had the opportunity to learn from them. This program has been well thought out and the exciting amount of knowledge presented was well received with the amount of time given throughout the training. Tiskita Jungle Lodge in Costa Rica is a magical place and to have been able to live there for 5 weeks left me feeling loved and at home. The staff and owners are just as magical and beautiful as the lodge itself. They will go above and beyond for you making sure you feel right at home! If you are looking to further your own personal practice or to better yourself as a teacher I highly recommend this course.

About the Location
Tiskita Jungle Lodge
Tiskita Jungle Lodge, the best kept secret in Costa Rica, is an ecolodge that offers the opportunity to experience pristine tropical rainforest in its 800 acre private biological reserve. Tiskita is about as remote as one can get, located at the end of the road on the secluded southwest coast of Costa Rica.
Our 15 Casitas surround the Lodge and are nestled in the jungle allowing our guests to experience the robust amount of wildlife all from the comfort of your front porch hammock. Guests constantly report spotting titi and capuchin monkeys, agoutis, coatis, macaws, toucans, and so many more. No need to hike into the jungle...staying at Tiskita means that you're already thereThe cabins were built using precious woods like Mahogany, Purpleheart, and Rosewood. The wood was collected over the years mostly from trees that fell down in Tiskita. All cabins are only a few minute’s walk away from the lodge, the rainforest, and the beach.
PRIVACY: The cabins are spread out around the lodge and landscaped to ensure privacy. Tiskita’s small number of cabins also helps to ensure privacy.
WILDLIFE: Each cabin is surrounded by trees that attract birds, butterflies, monkeys, and other wildlife, making the cabins’ decks often one of the best spots to relax and watch the wildlife go by.Yog
