Online Training Courses
Essential Nature Yoga online training courses are for those who are ready to deepen their experience and understanding whether as a serious practitioner or Yoga teacher.
Our courses consist of a balance of both theory and practical experience - in fact it is only through our personal exploration and experience of a practice that we are fully able to realise the benefits of practice. If we are a teacher of yoga we are then able to authentically pass this on to our students.
Chakra Course
7-month online course
September 2026 - March 2027
The Chakras are one of the most well-known, and well loved, paradigms within Yoga. They represent the different frequencies through which primal energy, prana, expresses through each of us as embodied beings.
Each of us, as a natural consequence of the ups and downs of life, will have blockages, or impediments, to the harmonious functioning of each of the chakras. We all know what it feels like to be stuck or restricted in certain areas of our life.
By focused practice on the Chakra system we can slowly begin to remove these blockages which, in time, can lead to a more balanced and joyful experience of the personality and life. This can lead to a more meaningful existence where we spontaneously embody our full potential.
As well as these very practical benefits, working with the Chakras is a profound practice than opens us up to the realization of the spiritual dimension of our being.
Throughout this course we will use asana, pranayama, mantra, visualisation and meditation as means to sensitise us to, and catalyse transformation in, each of the chakras. Whilst there will be exploration of the theory and concept of the chakras, the course is designed to be truly practical giving you the tools needed for you to make your own journey into the depths of who and what you are.
