50-Hour Yoga Nidra Teacher Training in Heimbach
A six-day Yoga Nidra teacher training in the Eifel, combining deep-rest practice, theory and teaching skills with vegetarian meals and time in nature.
Why it caught our eye
We like the focused curriculum and the quiet Eifel setting: a practical way to study Yoga Nidra in depth while balancing classroom learning with restorative movement, shared meals and nearby nature.
