Tavoos Garden & Wellness Hub, Cambodia

There can be few better places the world over to train to be a yoga instructor than at the stunning Tavoos Garden & Wellness Hub in Siem Reap in Cambodia. The Tavoos Garden Yoga teacher training is the only Yoga Alliance registered Yoga school in Cambodia and run the course from a gorgeous luxury, private and eco-friendly retreat. They aim to share the teachings of authentic yoga to all people and break down the boundaries that often stop some communities from accessing the benefits that yoga can bring. For this reason, they are a non-profit social venture who pride themselves on supporting their local community. This means you can rest assured that your course will have far-reaching benefits, locally, as well as with those that you share your newfound knowledge.

Tavoos Garden & Wellness Hub offers 200 hour Yoga Alliance certified courses to their students, which adhere to Yoga Industry Standards. The small classes, with only 15-20 fellow students in each, are personal, interactive, and a fully immersive experience. The course offers a great mix of yoga styles with a focus on Hatha and Vinyasa to teach unification, firm foundations, good alignment as well as moving through posture and breathing.

Depending on your budget, you can choose to stay at the luxury hotel, at a cozy locally owned guest house in a private room, or a top-rated hotel just opposite the school if you need some pampering.
