Wake up early and grab a pumpkin spiced latte. Then we’re going to see some colours!  hike up a mountain with Lauren (don’t worry, it’s not too tough a hike. It only takes about 35-minutes to get to the top and the views are SO SO SO worth it!). 

At the top, take some gorgeous photos! Then Lauren will lead you through a summit yoga flow/stretch followed by a meditation. You’ll have a hardy breakfast and then… GO APPLE PICKING! 

After some orchard frolicking, we’ll go back to town and the afternoon will be yours to stroll through the adorable streets of Kingston. Walk around, try some local restaurants, take a rest if you like.

Having recently completed the 200-hour Yoga training in person, I can't help but express my gratitude for the incredible experience I've had. From the exceptional food to the professionalism and expertise of the three teachers, every aspect exceeded my expectations. The encouragement to step into the unknown, coupled with various activities fostering trust, openness, and letting go, created a transformative journey. The thoughtfully crafted schedule ensured a balanced and enriching experience, while the supportive yoga instructors guided us every step of the way. I have learned so much from the diverse experiences within our beautiful group of women. I am feeling immensely grateful for the connections created, the knowledge gained, and the personal growth experienced. This Yoga training journey has equipped me not only with the tools to deepen my own practice but also with the ability to share the gift of yoga with others. Thank you 💜

It was a magical and transformative experience! I am so happy that I did my Yoga Teacher Training in Costa Rica with Yoga Academy International. Lauren and her team were amazing teachers. ✨The integration of so many aspects of yoga into this three week intensive was so valuable. I learned more than I ever imagined. YAI prepared us very well to become yoga teachers and inspired us to see that this is just the beginning of the journey of growth, learning and skill development. Everything was top notch. I am excited to do another training with YAI in the future and I would highly recommend them!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What I like about YTT, the training was life-changing for me, the program from day 1 to day 26 was terrific, day by day, we have been growing developing new habits, confidence, physically, mentally, and spiritually, our morning flows were focused on different types of yoga , an exciting approach for yoga theory, practicing teaching with fun, night philosophy, anatomy, evening songs with all together, sunrise and sunsets. It was an unbelievable month living in jungles with lovely people worldwide. The teachers are so professional. They provide a huge amount of knowledge and personal experience, helping everyone to develop our career and become the most skilled yoga teachers

Had the best time! Beautiful accommodation, delicious food and the retreat activities were everything I’d hoped for and more. I can’t thank Liv and her team enough for putting on such a memorable trip

It’s taken me this long to come here to write this simply because I cannot find the words to describe how much this teacher training meant to me. I still don’t have the words. All I have for now is… I will do this a million more times and it was worth every penny!! So grateful.
