In March 2024, I travelled to Kerala, India to become a certified yoga teacher. After a very intense and challenging month at the local Yoga school, I was looking forward to giving my first classes and gaining experience as a teacher.
The problem was that I did not know exactly where to start and how to find students. One day my friend mentioned this magical place called Vishram Village, set on a tranquil coconut hill near aka Varkala Han How can I help you? went on describing how special perhaps they needed a yoga teacher. After hearing her experience, I decided to contact Jibin, the owner of Vishram Village. He turned out to be one of the nicest guys ever, with a vision for the future and a very kind
heart. I was invited to the resort and offered to stay as a volunteer yoga teacher. The moment
I set foot in this natural paradise of tranquillity, I knew that this is where I wish to stay.
Over the course of 6 weeks, I had the opportunity to teach many wonderful guests at the resort and students from outside. The serene energy of the place and its location bring balance to all who wish to find it. The morning flow at dawn makes you feel like you are in a fairy tale and the practice at dusk is accompanied by beautiful sunset lights.
Thanks to this unique experience, I decided to follow the path of spiritual awakening. Together with Jibin, we created plans for my future yoga retreats at Vishram Village. I can honestly say that I could not be luckier to find this little piece of paradise and to get to know all the people who work there.
I can sincerely recommend Vishram Village and the collaboration with Jibin to all yogis looking to practise their first classes and to experienced teachers who wish to create their own retreats in a place full of positive and balanced energy.
