Our advanced Restorative Yoga training is part of a 300-hour program, made up of this module plus two more 100-hour modules. The 100-hour Restorative Yoga training belongs to our 300-hour advanced training and offers the quality instruction needed to get the most out of Restorative Yoga. At our yoga school, located in Alcorcón and in the Sierra Oeste of Madrid, we offer specialized training to explore this practice in depth, which is so needed today. The course includes training in pranayama, Yoga Nidra and mantra chanting, all key to freeing the breath.
The program is for anyone who wants to go deeper into the practice and method of Restorative Yoga. Participants will gain the knowledge they need to design and teach Restorative Yoga and pranayama classes and workshops. They will learn to support students with greater confidence as they work with their physical and emotional limitations.
We place special emphasis on therapeutic practice, the use of therapeutic props, conscious breathing (pranayama), the use of the voice and the yoga of sleep (Nidra). The training includes an introduction to Yoga Nidra and visualizations for self-discovery. You will also learn to bring in tools from Humanistic Coaching so participants can look more deeply into themselves.
All our trainings can be taken in person, online or as a mix of both. In this training, we apply ideas from structural and visceral osteopathy, as well as Ayurveda, to yoga practice.
You will learn to use blocks, belts, kurunta (wall ropes), bolsters, chairs and many other therapeutic props correctly. They will let you build your practice step by step, with special attention to working with the breath.
If you would like more information about our Restorative Yoga trainings, please get in touch. We will be happy to answer all your questions.
Unlike other, more conventional styles of yoga, Restorative Yoga aims to slow down and open the body and mind through passive and, at times, isometric stretches. A Restorative Yoga class includes only a few asanas, usually held for 5 to 15 minutes each. This allows the muscles to relax deeply.
A Restorative Yoga session uses props such as bolsters, belts, blocks, benches, tables and ropes. These props help keep the body aligned and let it relax completely. They also allow the effects of the asanas to reach the deepest layers of muscle, visceral and organ tissue.
From Iyengar and Restorative Yoga to Therapeutic Yoga
After going deeper into Iyengar Yoga, Restorative Yoga and the correct use of therapeutic props, we take the next step into Therapeutic Yoga, approached through asana and pranayama.

Foundations of Osteopathy and how to apply them in yoga
An essential attitude: we ask you to come with an open mind. During the training, we share valuable information you won’t find in manuals, and being open to receiving it is each student’s responsibility.
During the training, and after it ends, you will be able to attend the school’s Restorative-Therapeutic Yoga classes as an observer. When the teacher considers it appropriate, you can also take part as an assistant. This option has a small additional fee on top of the full training price.
