Led by Australia’s premier teaching trio—Noelle, Rachael, and Sarah—this training stands apart with facilitators who actively teach weekly public classes at Rare’s renowned Bondi studio & Surry Hills studios. This rare commitment to ongoing public teaching ensures a vibrant, grounded, and practical approach, setting this program apart from others where facilitators no longer lead regular classes. With thousands of hours of real-world teaching experience, they offer an unmatched foundation in vinyasa yoga, seamlessly blending tradition with modern relevance.
Through the 8-Limbed Path, you’ll explore anatomy, philosophy, breathwork, theming, and teaching techniques, enriched by hands-on application and profound self-inquiry, all rooted in the dynamic energy of Rare’s Bondi studio.
