Frequently asked questions
Restorative & Yoga Nidra
What will I take away from the Yoga Nidra training with Pure Yoga?
At Pure Yoga, our Yoga Nidra training goes beyond just teaching the practice; you will take away a deep understanding of the philosophy and science behind Yoga Nidra, as well as the ability to guide others through the practice with confidence and skill.
You will learn how to create and hold a safe space for your clients, offering them a practice that facilitates deep relaxation, healing & meditation.
Our training focuses on practical applications of this versatile technique & trains you in how to deliver it to foster a meditative state in your students.
Additionally, you will receive ongoing support and resources from our community, enabling you to continue growing and refining your practice long after the training is over.
What is involved in the home practice component of the Yoga Nidra Teachers' Training?
The home practice component of the Yoga Nidra Teachers' Training with Pure Yoga is designed to deepen your understanding and experience of Yoga Nidra first and foremost.
You will be provided with guided recordings before you begin the training and after the immersion. Integration is an essential component of your learning. Instructing others in Yoga Nidra & receiving personalized feedback from our experienced teachers.
You will develop a strong foundation for personal and professional growth in Yoga Nidra.
How is the class Restorative?
This class uses gentle Hatha poses both in a supported way for deeper release and as stand alone asanas.
A series of practices are selected & sequenced for you. The sequences target tight shoulders & neck, weak areas in the body & focus on spinal health & integrated breathing.
Close attention & guidance for using the breath in different ways is taught progressively.
Guided Relaxation is included at the end, sometimes Yoga Nidra for a longer experience. This class is particularly good for busy people who need to let go and find a nurturing space for themselves. Beginners, recovering from injuries, pregnancy, getting back to the mat - this is the one for you.
Are the restorative classes suitable for beginners?
Yes, for entry level students or newbies this course is recommended.
Restorative classes typically include an internalisation sequence that develops the skill of being able to consciously relax & let go. The sequence can be learned & eventually embodied through direct experience. The class also includes supported Hatha poses which are held longer creating space for the breath to work its way through tight muscles & tissues. Breath awareness is an essential component of these classes and various techniques are included designed for effects such as tranquilizing, altering brain wave activity and building alertness whilst relaxed. A perfect wind down after a busy day setting you up for the best sleep ever!
What type of relaxation do you teach?
Yoga Nidra is an ancient & profound form of relaxation derived from the body of Tantra (The parent science of Yoga). Yoga Nidra is a systematic progressive technique that is safe and highly effective at inducing deep relaxation. The deeper stages of the practice are designed to bring out the root causes of tension and build a specific skillset that helps to release & eventually let go of them.
How can I best prepare for the Yoga Nidra Teachers Training?
Once you enrol in the training you will be provided with audio recordings for the practice to use on a daily basis. This will embed the practice at an experiential level which is a critical factor when it comes to conveying the practice to others.
It is highly recommended that you join an existing Yoga Nidra course being taught by Pure Yoga building up practice experience and keeping a journal of your insights & learning.
Recommended readings will be provided in the info booklet.

Yoga Beginners Course
What does a typical class look like?
These classes are a holistic blend of postures to destress and unwind. Guided breathing practices for healthy lungs and better breathing habits.
Yoga Nidra - deep relaxation to experience a meditative state which augments healing and rejuvenates the body & mind.
Postures called asanas are made accessible to you by either offering alternatives or supported options. Small class sizes make this an intimate gathering where you can derive from personalised input.
Even if your starting from scratch or returning to the mat after a break these classes will leave you revived and centred for your day ahead.
What if Im recovering from an illness or have an injury?
That's great that you are thinking to support yourself through this with some gentle and rejuvenating Yoga.
Just let me know in advance of joining of any specific injuries or conditions and I will try my best to adapt and incorporate practices that take this into account. I like to plan ahead, so can offer variations and modifications to suit within the context of the class and its ongoing weekly progression. Consider if you need to start with a one to one first so we can assess where you are at & map a way forward.
