Yoga Teacher Training in the Philippines

Hi everyone! You remember the baby that I gave birth to early this year? Well, my baby has reached a milestone! Bodhi Yoga Center is now a Registered Yoga School with Yoga Alliance. This means that we are ready to offer Yoga Teacher Training programs with an approved curriculum.

The first Yoga Alliance-approved teacher training course in General Santos will commence in April 2016. The course will be taught by Indian yogi Vinay Jesta, who has been training teachers in Europe and India.

I hope that by training more teachers in our city, our yoga community will become more diverse and the practice more sustainable. 🙂

If you wish to join this teacher training program, please express your interest by e-mailing to info@bodhiyogacenter.com.

Yoga in South Central Mindanao

I’ve said this once and I’ll say it again: When it comes to being a tourist destination, REGION 12 IS HIGHLY UNDERRATED. And as to being a Yoga Destination, it is UP and COMING. I mean, come on!

Just take a look at this fine stretch of white beach in Gumasa, Sarangani Province…

…that you can have ALL TO YOURSELF on some days.

image

See what I mean?

image

Pay attention… TO ME. SEE?? ONLY. ME…

image

…and the person taking the photo. And the group I came with, of course. You didn’t seriously think I would drive to the beach alone, did you? Or would I? Hmmmnn…

How about this super serene lake on top of Mt. Parker, T’boli, South Cotabato?

image

Which, I again have all to myself…

image

Well, okay I’m never really all by myself…

image

But, you get it, right?!

image

Also, take a look at this beautiful countryside yoga studio in Alabel, Sarangani Province where you can practice all you want…

image

Peacefully…. privately…

image

Just tell me when you want to… because I’d be very willing to share this space with you.

image

Also, because I need to let security know to let you in. It’s not yet open to the public…

But this yoga studio in General Santos City is!!! Yoga – it’s more fun in GenSan!

image

And you can come visit me here anytime!

image

I’ll just be here. Hanging out.

image

Stretching…

image

Floating…

Literally waiting for you to join my class hahaha…

So if you’re looking for your next yoga destination, please consider my beloved South Central Mindanao. Don’t forget to connect with Bodhi Yoga Center when you come here.

P.S. OUR REGION IS NOT A WAR ZONE. STOP SUBSCRIBING TO THAT IDEA. EDUCATE YOURSELF. Thank you! Namaste. Om shanti, shanti, shanti! 🙂
