Unique Yoga Teachers exchange
on a historic Swiss farm
​
This summer, you will have the first yoga teachers exchange on Silvias Farm! It is open to yoga teachers from all around the world who did minimum a 200-hours teachers course and have teaching practice. During everyday life, the yoga teachers give a lot to the students but while teaching, sometimes, your own practice doesn't get enough attention. Silvia invites you to spend ten days on her historic Swiss farm, located on a hill in plain nature with old trees and a big garden. The idea is to teach each other on an advanced level in different styles. Meet other yoga teachers to learn from each other, train together, and individually!
Enjoy outdoor classes like morning meditation and sunset Yoga.
Visit the medieval old town of Murten at beautiful lake Murten
Experience exciting hiking and kayaking in a natural park.
Practice Yoga on the top of a mountain.
Full board organic meals from the farm
9 nights accommodation

The teachers exchange is very open to different ideas. It depends also on how many we will be. The main goal is to give ourselves a structure that allows us to progress and take time for our own development. We teach each other but we will also have enough space for individual training. In the beginning we will sit together and exchange ideas about our intention of the week. There can be partners or teams, supporting each other to reach a certain goal. This can be on a physical level (i.e. asanas like scorpion, handstand), personal level (i.e. patience), a spiritual level (i.e. discovering own energies in meditation). It can also be about health (healing ourselves through pranayama, diet, specific asanas) or about getting over a certain habit or old sufferings. It is very open. Silvia gives a schedule containing a main structure of the retreat, organises the excursions, hiking and kayaking.
Together we realize it.
