What Students Say

Such amazing training; it completely exceeded my expectations! The trainer Claire Green was very knowledgeable & experienced. It was clear that Claire has developed a deep understanding of how yin yoga can be combined with Traditional Chinese Medicine & myofascia release to bring deep healing to the body, mind, & soul. If you are considering this training be prepared to have an experiential journey of personal healing & reflection as you immerse yourself in both the theory & practical classes delivered in this course.

We were blessed to start each day with a yoga class run by Thia. She had such a loving & empowering presence, & shared with us vinyasa, yin, pranayama, & kirtan; a beautiful blend for our morning practice. The studio feels peaceful & is nestled between local Balinese residences & businesses. With such a relaxed & peaceful vibe, it’s hard not to get lost in the magic of Lembongan. Gorgeous beaches, friendly people, sacred traditions.
Booking for the trip was seamless all information was clear & I was well prepared. I booked accommodation as part of my course & stayed just next door to the studio in a guest house – very convenient! Yoga Dunia provided very helpful advice on boat bookings to the island & everything went smoothly. I’m so satisfied with my experience I will be back again!

Great Yin Yoga Teacher Training experience. It is an intense and joyful training. Learning a lot of theory while experiencing it also through the daily life of Nusa Lembongan Island. You will return with tons of memories to remember all your life for sure. I feel so grateful to have this experience in my life. Thank you

I completed my yin yoga training with Claire on the beautiful island of Nusa Lembongan…What an experience!

Claires passion/knowledge for yin yoga shone through, and she was attentive and giving to her students.

The chance to study at this beautiful studio, on this beautiful island made it an experience, instead of just ‘another training’. Highly recommend
