to Nov 15

Rest & Restore: Restorative Yoga Teacher Training CPD (30 hours)

Rest & Restore: Restorative Yoga Teacher Training CPD (30 hours)

Learning the Art of Deep Rest

This autumn, join us at The Yoga Yurt for a 4-day Restorative Yoga Training designed to support yoga teachers, trainees and dedicated practitioners in deepening their understanding of rest, nervous system regulation, and the art of holding space.
Set in nature, this training offers a calm, embodied learning experience that blends practice, reflection, and practical skills for both
teaching and personal growth.


’Taking time out each day to relax and renew is essential to living well.’

— Judith Hanson Lasater


About the Training

This 4-day CPD is designed for yoga teachers who want to deepen their knowledge and confidence in teaching restorative yoga.
Restorative yoga is subtle, therapeutic, and profoundly healing. 

This training goes beyond ‘props and poses’ to explore:

  • How to sequence and teach restorative sessions confidently

  • Nervous system regulation, trauma-informed principles and ethics

  • Modifications for stress, fatigue, injuries or special populations

  • Using props, voice and presence to hold safe, supportive space

Whether you teach public classes, privates, or wellness workshops, this CPD will leave you with practical skills, deepened awareness and renewed inspiration.

Experience and learn in The Yoga Yurt, a beautiful, nature-based space that perfectly supports quiet, embodied learning.


What to Expect?

Embodied Practice
Throughout the training, you will experience restorative yoga both as a student and as a teacher. Each day includes guided practices that allow you to fully feel the effects of rest in your own body, supporting embodied understanding and informed teaching.

Teaching Labs
You will have the opportunity to lead short restorative sequences in a supportive environment, receiving thoughtful feedback from the facilitator and peers. These sessions are designed to build confidence in cueing, pacing, holding space and responding to individual needs.

Props & Variations
Explore the art of propping in depth through hands-on workshops. Learn how to skilfully use blankets, bolsters, blocks and other supports to create safe, comfortable and deeply nourishing restorative shapes, with variations and adaptations for different bodies and needs.

Therapeutic Applications
This training offers guidance on how to safely support students experiencing stress, fatigue, overwhelm or sensitivity. You will explore considerations for common conditions and learn how to adapt restorative practices to be inclusive, trauma-aware and responsive.

Nervous System Regulation
Develop a deeper understanding of how restorative yoga supports the nervous system. Learn how rest, breath, pacing, language and environment can help calm the body, support regulation, and encourage a sense of safety and ease.

Integration & Sequencing
Bring everything together by creating your own restorative offerings and sequences. You will leave with practical tools, ideas, and inspiration to confidently integrate restorative yoga into classes, workshops or your personal practice.


Who is this Training for?

This training is designed for yoga teachers, trainees and dedicated practitioners who feel drawn to the practice of restorative yoga and wish to deepen their understanding of rest, nervous system support, and conscious, compassionate teaching.

It is especially suitable for:

  • Qualified yoga teachers who want to confidently offer restorative yoga classes, workshops, or 1:1 sessions, or who wish to bring more therapeutic, nervous system–aware approaches into their existing teaching.

  • Yoga teacher trainees who are currently completing a 200-hour (or higher) training and would like to expand their understanding of restorative practice alongside their studies.

  • Teachers of related movement or wellbeing disciplines, such as Pilates or bodywork, who wish to integrate restorative principles and practices into their work (within the scope of their existing qualifications).

  • Dedicated yoga practitioners who are not teaching but wish to deepen their personal practice, explore rest as a discipline, and gain a clearer understanding of how restorative yoga supports the body and nervous system.

This training is ideal for those who:

  • Feel called to slow down and explore rest in a meaningful, embodied way

  • Are interested in trauma-aware, nervous system–informed practice

  • Want to learn how to hold space with sensitivity, clarity and confidence

Please note: This training is offered as a Yoga Alliance–registered Continuing Education (CPD) and personal development programme.
It does not qualify participants as yoga teachers in its own right and is intended to supplement existing teaching qualifications.

If you are unsure whether this training is suitable for you, you are warmly invited to get in touch and discuss your individual background and intentions.


‘Teaching from heart, guiding with presence to slow down and restore.’

Revive & Recharge Yoga Day Retreat
Apr
23

Revive & Recharge Yoga Day Retreat

Join Yoga Teacher Isis du Jour in this beautiful studio right at the edge of the Ashdown Forest, for a very special day retreat, especially designed to energise, revive & recharge you!

We will start the day with settling in and connecting together and we will start exploring breath and movement in a gentle but flowing yoga session. After this we will enjoy a delicious and nutritious homemade lunch.

After lunch we will explore the beautiful surroundings of the studio and will go for a lovely nature walk right in the Ashdown Forest.

The afternoon will bring us slowly to more stillness and you will enjoy a session of Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra

Restorative yoga will help you to feel a deep sense of rest. The process of getting into the poses, using props and blankets is helping you to allow your body to feel comfortable and supported. It will give you the opportunity to explore and move your focus more inwards.

Yoga Nidra is the practice of deeper relaxation and is often called 'Yogic Sleep'. In this session you will be guided through a specific and detailed meditation and body awareness rotation, which will allow your body to slip into a deep state of relaxation while your mind remains fully awake. The brain will switch from beta to alpha waves, signalling the transition from activity to meditation.


We will end our day with a deeply relaxing and nourishing sound bath hosted by Kirsty Knapp.

After this day retreat, you should leave feeling deeply rested, nourished and recharged.
This day retreat is suitable for all levels. No prior yoga experience is necessary.

This retreat will take place at the beautiful location of Tranquility Yoga Studio.
The studio is located right at the edge of Ashdown Forest and has beautiful views and surroundings.
