Jivani Yoga. Awaken - Heal - Transform

Jivani Yoga Awaken - Heal - Transform Jivani is a Hindi word meaning 'Becomes the Life' or 'Life Story'

Most of us know when yoga came into our lives. Whether it was parental influence or an accidental introduction, we can easily remember the first class we attended and what it was that hooked us in. What is not so easy, is determining when yoga stops being just a physical practice, and becomes something much more.

There is an energy that comes through yoga and it is one of undeniable and unavoidable transformation. Asana tends to be the gateway; you might start off on the mat chasing the holy grail of open hamstrings, but somewhere along the line as the great sage Bill Hicks would say, your third eye starts to squidgy clean, you become aware of your conditioning and learned beliefs and see how many of them make no sense. Your world view changes and with it your relationships with your loved ones, your lifestyle and your self. Yogi's invariably come into contact with many other healing arts that permeate their being and it becomes harder and less important to define exactly what yoga is. At some point yoga simply becomes your life. This is Jivani Yoga.

We offer 6 week residential Teacher Training programs in paradise locations. They are invitations to be completely immersed in a personal journey of yoga and healing, far away from the limiting beliefs of the tribe. Open hamstrings may be optional, transformation is not.

She is so real and so honest that you can’t help but let yourself be fully seen too. The Jivani team hold a space that enables you to feel safe enough to break, loved and accepted and supported through the ups and downs of transformation and growth."  Corinne Kagan, Australia

 

"When I think back on the time throughout the training, the first word that comes to mind is love.  Love for the experience and for my whole self… body, mind, and spirit. Emma held the space so well that I felt comfortable to go to places that I didn’t even know existed within myself. Not only was it the amazing, super informative yoga classes, but it was the weekly surprises that made it so exciting. I woke up grateful every single day to be in such beautiful surroundings with amazing people to go through the transformation together. I now feel the love that I always thought was there and Emma and her team gave me the confidence to let it shine. With their guidance, I was able to dive deep and really find my true essence. I am confident to share the knowledge I learned with others in a safe and peaceful environment. This training is something I will hold with me for the rest of my life."  Michelle Mortensen, USA

 

"Having recently visited the website and read the description of the course, I feel compelled to add my own view of the 2013 program. My words and the words on the website are feeble attempts to convey the true experience of what happens on the course. It doesn't portray the laughter, the sweat, the tears, and the blood! I actually don't consider it a yoga course. Primarily it was a personal development course where we incidentally became ready-to-go and qualified yoga teachers. The team Emma has established is awe inspiring, and I'm not even considering their technical skills. It's their personalities that excites me. I feel privileged to be able to call them my friends. It's tempting to repeat the course! The support to be your true authentic self while teaching yoga was a massive gift. The greatest gift we can give to the world is to come alive, and be ourselves in full expression, I uncovered. This course supports your authenticity, which cultivates growth in surprising, unpredictable areas. Ultimately, it's an adventure of the soul."  Glenn Dakers, New Zealand

 

"If learning the skills and tricks to become the very best Yoga Teacher you can be, or simply to deepen your own understanding, knowledge and practice as a yogi is what you're after, then this course is exactly what you need! Regardless of your level and previous experiences with Yoga or your physical flexibility, Emma and her inspiring team will cruise you through the training and warmly mold you to shine as yoga teachers. This course brings a wide variety of impulses on all levels of consciousness and knowledge regarding Yoga in it's broadest interpretation. Tap into your creative stream, and be invited and challenged towards self inquiry, personal growth, community, asana practice, communication and perseverance. If as they say; "travel is the only thing that you can buy that will make you richer" is true, then Emma's Teacher Training Course is surely a travel, a journey! A journey that has more than met my expectations and one that I am truly and deeply grateful for."

Djordi Kun, Belgium

 

"This training was a gift of grace. I truly feel that grace brought me to this specific group of teachers and students. I could not have asked for a more harmonious concoction of beings.   The entire training permeated with love, joy, laughter, and life-changing growth. Emma is PRESENT. This is her gift as a teacher. Every time she taught, she was fresh, alive, full of excitement, humor, and authenticity. If you want to experience a humble teacher as she moves you graciously through asana, meditation, chanting, heart-opening discussions, you will be blown away.  

I am unconditionally grateful for this experience. I feel that it encouraged me to express myself, to find my deepest expression of myself and show that to the world. I was challenged at times (from a place of tough love), to go inwards and open places within myself that were covered by fear. I was challenged to come into my power and break through the barriers to my own divinity.  Most of all, I was challenged by the constantly increasing amount of love on all sides of me, by my teachers, fellow trainees, and the abundance of love inside of myself that I was just discovering.

This training allowed me to flourish into myself more fully. To believe in my ability to teach and empower others. To share my voice, my gifts, my heart. To continuously challenge myself to deepen into my practice in whatever form that means for me. I am teaching now and feel deeply grateful to all my teachers who have guided me along this path."  Samantha Defeo, USA
