Is there a written and / or practical exam on the 200-Hour YTTC?

How many students do you accept per course?
We limit our groups to 25-26 students. This is a perfect number for both students and teachers. Students can experience the benefits of group energy, and practice real teaching scenarios. Yet, teachers can provide the personal attention students need and deserve. Evia Silence has 11 rooms (so book early) and the yoga studio fits 26 people.
How is the weather in Greece in the summer?
July can get quite hot, however, because the retreat center is right by the sea, it's breezy and pleasant. In September, the weather is less hot, but it's still warm, with the temperature being around 27 degrees Celcius. Mornings and evenings are a bit colder. Prepare to sweat in the morning classes, no matter the month :-))
What can I buy from the retreat center? Do they accept card?
You can buy coffee, non-alcoholic drinks, and fruits. The retreat center can also provide laundry for a fee (about 15-20€). You can use your card to pay for these things, but there is no ATM near the retreat center. The closest ATM is in the Nea Styra village which is somehow closeby.
What can we do on our days off?
There are many beautiful beaches on the island that you can visit. Limnionas Beach, which is 5 km, Armirichi Beach is 5 km, and Galazia Limni (Blue Lagoon Beach) is 13 km. Zarakes Village is worth visiting, only 10 km away, and Nea Styra village, which is 5 km away. We can arrange taxis for you or you can rent a car from Athens Airport. You can also relax by the pool reading a book or just enjoying the view.
Will we learn pregnancy/prenatal yoga?
Do you offer an internship yoga program?
In which countries can I teach with the yoga certificate that I earn?
What should I pack? Do I need to bring my yoga mat?
Once you reserve your spot, you will have access to a Google Drive Folder with all the information you need. Tips on booking your flights, what to bring, how to prepare for the course, suggested reading, and so on. The retreat center has basic yoga mats, so it's up to you if you want to bring your favorite mat. You can also bring just a yoga towel, put it on top of the mat from Filion Eco Suites and you're ready to go.
Can I stay somewhere outside of the retreat center and pay only for the course and food?
The training programs that we offer are designed as residential ones. This means that students stay at the retreat center where the training is being conducted. The main reason is for the student to get immersed 100% into the yoga studies and its teachings for 3 weeks and thus absorb the maximum.
The classes start at 7:00 am and some days they finish as late as 7:00 pm. By the time you finish dinner with the group, it will be 8:00 pm. Then you need to go back to your room. We also request punctuality and high energy from students, so driving/walking in the morning and at night would make you very exhausted.
