The training will begin early in the morning on April 21 and finish late in the evening on April 26. If flying, please arrive anytime on April 20 to check in, and check out on April 27. Participants are encouraged to rent a car to get from the airport to D’Alijo (car rentals are inexpensive in Portugal) or we will arrange an airport pickup on your behalf at an extra cost.
Additional information
Although there’s no minimum level of ability that’s required, in order to fully participate, you should be ready to practice 2 hot yoga classes per day plus additional training hours. In other words, you will be expected to arrive with a good level of fitness, but it does not matter what you’re able to do in terms of postures. What matters most is that spending your entire week doing yoga and training is fun and exciting to you, and that you’re up for the challenge. Your willingness to participate, and to take a step forward from wherever you are now, is much more important than your current ability.
