Why take our Yoga and Ayurveda teacher training?
The aim of this training is to dive deep into the heart of what it means to practice yoga: by learning to love and care for your body, your home in this world; and by restoring your inner connection through discovering the true self. The training is rooted in bhakti-yoga, the yoga of devotion.
Open to all levels, this training is equally beneficial for someone looking to become a yoga teacher and share their passion with the world, as for someone seeking to deepen their personal yoga and meditation practice.
Beyond yoga, students will be introduced to its sister science, Ayurveda. Ayur stands for life, and Veda for knowledge, therefore Ayurveda represents the ‘science of life’, an ancient medicinal and lifestyle tradition that perfectly complements yoga. The two together form a perfect toolset for a healthy, wholesome lifestyle! Keep the body healthy with yoga asana and Ayurvedic healing and nutrition principles, maintain mental and emotional peace, and find balance with mindfulness lifestyle practices.
This yoga teacher training aims to deliver the highest quality yoga asana, philosophy, anatomy, and Ayurveda teachings, combining experts in the respective fields and offering all the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for the students to complete their journey.

"Taking my yoga teacher training was the most transformative experience of my life. My instructor Matea is full of knowledge and wisdom. She is an incredible instructor who wants all her students to succeed. I feel confident in my ability to teach classes because of all the practice this training offers. My favorite aspect of the course was learning yogic philosophy and Ayurveda. I'm forever grateful to be a part of the family."
- Jullie Finnie
"I had an amazing experience in Croatia. My instructor Matea is a wealth of information regarding yoga, Hindu philosophy, and anatomy. I liked that she's more traditional in her approach than other teachers who have changed yoga from its roots into a hybrid that is almost unrecognizable. She's full of love, life, and passion for her practice and has made a life-changing impact on me."
- Meru R
Matea began practicing yoga in her teens in Croatia, as a result of her great interest and fascination with Eastern cultures and teachings. Eventually, her hobby grew into a passion, and her passion into an occupation. She relocated to Belgium to dedicate herself to her studies, yoga, and meditation practice, residing in an ashram and studying theology and philosophy at the University of Wales.
She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Eastern Religions and Theology. Matea is an E-RYT Yoga teacher, Aerial and SUP yoga teacher, Meditation teacher, Sound healer with Tibetan singing bowls, Thai Massage therapy, Bio-orgonomy, Reiki Master, Jyotish counseling, and Ayurveda counselor. Matea is the lead teacher in the 200hr Yoga & Ayurveda
