250HR HOT 26 TEACHER TRAINING

Location: YV East

We are delighted to announce we will be running a 250 hour Hot 26 Teacher Training Programme in the UK in late 2022. This course is classified as a Foundation Plus course and accredited by Yoga Alliance Professionals.

This course is led by YogaVenue and Spiralling Crow Co-Founder Caroline Gozzi and senior Hot 26 instructor Luka Baggio. The Hot 26 sequence, devised by Bikram Choudhury, is taught and practised globally. It is one of the most accessible, healing and beneficial forms of Yoga that anyone can practise.

If you love Hot Yoga and the Hot 26 sequence and want to immerse yourself in the learnings of this practice, then there is no better time like the present to enrol in this course! This is a one of a kind course and at the end of it, you will have the knowledge and the confidence to be able to teach a full Hot 26 class.

Why do our Hot 26 Teacher Training Course?

This is the only Hot26 course in the UK registered as a Foundation Plus course by Yoga Alliance Professionals.

In our course we teach you how to teach; how to understand the asanas, the sequencing, the methodology, the anatomy and the energetics and much much more. Traditionally in Hot 26 style training courses you are given a dialogue to memorise. We don't do that, instead, we are going to work with you to develop one using our frameworks and structures. This techniques ensures you understand the class and the yoga so you can teach it with knowledge and integrity. 

In addition, we will teach you how to instruct your Hot 26 classes with authenticity and the importance of care and understanding in your delivery. 

Over the 250 hours you will cover asana, pranayama, the logic of the sequence, philosophy, anatomy and energetics. This is a practice based course which means that from day 1 you will be practising teaching Yoga.

Spiralling Crow Hot 26 Yoga Teacher Training Course Leaders

The Spiralling Crow Hot 26 Yoga Teacher Training is led by Caroline Gozzi and Luka Baggio.

Caroline is the reason YogaVenue exists. Her love of Yoga and desire to bring this to Oxford led to the creation of the studio. She is the co-founder of YogaVenue, the Spiralling Crow Teacher Training School and YogaVenue’s Hot 26 Teacher Training Programme. Caroline has been teaching Yoga since 2005 and is registered as a senior Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance Professionals UK. She has completed trainings in Hot Yoga with Bikram Choudhury in LA and Vinyasa Yoga with Laughing Lotus in NYC. Caroline finds that Yoga enriches and energises her life, be it on the mat, teaching class or out in the world. She loves sharing this through her teaching.

Luka found Hot Yoga in her second year of studying Drama at University. After her first class she realised she was pursuing the wrong career and started to squeeze classes into her busy schedule. She completed her Bikram Yoga teacher training in 2013 and two years later, trained in Vinyasa Yoga and Hot Power Flow with Spiralling Crow at YogaVenue. She completed her Yin Yoga teacher training with Sarah Low in 2017. Luka says Yoga has absolutely transformed her life, quietening her constant mind chatter and allowing her to breathe and enjoy life in the present moment. Luka teaches with precision and a lot of humour.
