Aerial Yoga Teacher Training

In French-speaking Switzerland!

Next training: Will be announced…

Find your flight while keeping your feet on the ground!

This Aerial Yoga training and teaching approach offered by Delphine SoDakini is the result of many years of exploration around movement, yoga, aerial arts, dance and living anatomy. The body as a source of experience and elevation.

A space where you allow yourself to move, use your body and appreciate it! 

“The body is the receptacle of a spiritual sensation, of a divine sensation.”

Aerial yoga is a practice in its own right beyond acrobatics. The use of the hammock to develop strength and flexibility but also to find relaxation, ease, confidence in yourself and in your body. A practice that takes us out of conventional alignments and allows us to find new forms of connection.

You will learn to teach embodied aerial yoga and movement with integrity towards an open and conscious body and mind.

At the end of the training you will have the knowledge and a coherent structure to develop your own classes in order to be able to lead your students towards a safe and progressive development. New tools to enrich your own personal practice.

SODAKINI AERIAL YOGA TEACHER TRAINING | OVER 6 MONTHS or IN INTENSIVE | PRESENTIAL

“A path of attention to rhythms, pulsations and the subtle divine energy of which we are made and which constantly circulates within us”
“The Radiance Sutra” Lorin Roche

The SoDakini creative and fluid philosophy is rooted in Embodied Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga and Tantrik Philosophy. Tantrik spirituality which celebrates the nobility of the body by welcoming each breath, each sensation, each emotion as a tool of evolution which takes us into a magical and sacred universe of the body, filled with teaching and wisdom.

Let your mind rest! Learn to turn your attention back to your movement, let the body speak so that it becomes an effortless source of meditation in motionA kinesthetic teaching that believes in the wisdom of the body and its potential.

The hammock – more than an accessory! A new tool to enrich one’s practice, discover new paths of exploration and transmission. An external stimulus that connects us to our internal fluidity. It teaches us to let go and challenges our internal balance, our connection to the earth, and cultivating our freedom to fly.

Reconnect and learn from yourself. The SoDakini Aerial Yoga training is not a finished formula / dogma but a training which offers you a teaching framework in which you can connect to your full potential of exploration and creativity, a source of ‘elevation. This somatic approach allows you to experience the possibilities in your body and have a direct conversation with itself.

On her journey, Delphine had the chance to meet teachers and enlightening mentors such as Julie Martin (Brahmani Yoga) who now gives meaning and life to her own Aerial Yoga training.

PROGRAM

  • A practice that connects us to our own sensations and gives them permission to exist through the body. Sensory guidance that activates our senses to find a deeper connection. The yoga of the incarnation, “Embodied Yoga”.
  • Learn to feel, to use your body as a source of intelligence, strength and freedom.
  • A training where questioning acts as a response. A teaching that is not focused on acrobatic performance or on what is right or wrong, but on the awakening of one’s inner listening, his rhythms, his needs in order to be able to flourish with integrity in his body and his mind.
  • SoDakini offers a methodology providing a framework for the creation of your own sequences. Creative and evolutionary sequence learning SoDakini Vinyasa Flow
  • Before you can build, you have to be able to feel. The mornings of the training weekends will be dedicated in part by a personal practice guided by Delphine and moments of “play time” to bring the experience to life.

 

  • Learning and exploring postures between heaven and earth.
  • Learn movements and transitions that bind the postures together.
  • Creation and presentation of short sequences on a theme chosen by the student.
  • Help from the Gods. SoDakini Aerial Yoga training is a poetic approach, a conversation between our feminine and masculine forces. Shiva (earth) and Shakti (sky) as a source of inspiration and as a tool of exploration. Inseparable lovers who take pleasure in existing in each of us.
  • Tantrism, a spirituality that celebrates the nobility of the body by welcoming each breath, each sensation, each emotion as a tool of evolution and elevation. Everyday life as a sacred spiritual approach.
  • Bringing together yoga theory and the use of the body through poetry. Inspirational readings and discussions throughout the training around the book “The Radiance Sutras” (book in English with translation of some texts in French during the training).
  • Introduction to fascial anatomy and exploration of organic movements with the hammock. 
  • Fluid core
  • Anatomy of the feet / pelvis / spine and their connections
  • Anatomy of hands / shoulder / torso and their connections

YOUR PROFESSOR

Delphine SoDakini

Dakini, “the one who crosses the sky” or “the one who dances in space”. The nudity of the goddess Dakini symbolizes the natural and wild state, and according to the Buddhist interpretation the absence of ego or mental obstacle, her own nature revealed.  Dakini “who makes women see clearly” (and why not men), a muse for practice and spiritual transformation.

Delphine has an artistic background in the arts, design, dance, and aerial arts where sensual dance has been for many years her means of expression and transmission. It was during her stay in China that she discovered aerial yoga which is her gateway to a more introspective practice of yoga.

For many years and in different countries (China, India, Hawaii, Switzerland), she developed her own exploration and practice by discovering different modalities and styles. Her inspirations are found in Embodied Yoga, Yoga Vinyasa, and the Tantric philosophy which invites us to find our own path.

Delphine “breathes”, transmits the art of movement and personal development through yoga, aerial yoga, dance/body expression, from the smallest to the largest, convinced that the body is an open door to our authentic soul.

“On this earth we are embodied in a body, in my opinion it is for a good reason that reason does not know. The body knows! ”

“Love calls our attention and engages us. When we give love our tender attention, we are in the realm of tantra. Life has a mysterious, self-renewing process. The technique of meditation are ways of allowing the ecstasy of the life-force at play to renew our bodies and souls. Ask your body to teach you and to take you on adventures into intimacy with your own essence. This is the yoga of wonder and delight ” “The Radiance Sutra” Lorin Roche
