Yoga Nidra Training
with Francesca Sanlorenzo
23/24 September, 28/29 October, 18/19 November 2023, Yogarise Peckham

Yogarise is delighted to welcome back SYT Francesca Sanlorenzo for an immersive Yoga Nidra training for teachers and practitioners.
During the course you will cultivate your own daily practice, and discover different approaches and schools of Yoga Nidra, both classical and contemporary. You will have opportunity to develop a unique voice and create your own scripts.
We will explore the science, history and philosophy behind the practice and its applications in different contexts. You will be guided through lots of Yoga Nidra practices to experience some of the theory - adding a restorative, retreat-like quality to the training.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
The training is for qualified and trainee yoga teachers looking to add Yoga Nidra to their teaching offering. It is also suitable for meditation teachers, health care professionals and practitioners who are very familiar with the practice of Yoga Nidra.
