SoDakini Aerial Yoga Training
Unique in French-speaking Switzerland!
> New date: January - June 2026
in modular form | 100h
Find your flight while keeping your feet on the ground!
This aerial yoga training and teaching approach proposed by Delphine SoDakini is the fruit of many years of exploration of movement, yoga, aerial arts, dance and living anatomy.
The body as a source of experience and elevation. A space where you can move, use and enjoy your body!
"The body is the receptacle of a spiritual sensation, a divine sensation".
Aerial yoga is a practice in its own right that goes beyond acrobatics. Using the hammock to develop strength and flexibility, but also to find relaxation, ease and confidence in oneself and one's body. A practice that takes us out of conventional alignments and enables us to find new forms of connection.
You'll learn the basics of aerial yoga and how to teach it with integrity towards the body and an open, conscious mind.
By the end of the course, you'll have the knowledge and coherent structure to develop your own classes, so that you can lead your students towards safe, creative and progressive development and/or new tools to enrich your own personal practice.
"Delphine gave us a complete sensory, spiritual and technical training in a very playful and poetic way. She accompanies us and lets us find our own way of feeling and teaching. We come away with a very nice baggage that enables us to teach, but also to reveal ourselves. I can only recommend Delphine's training. Elisabeth Broennimann
_______________
"This course is by far the most comprehensive I've ever taken.
It has reconciled me with certain aspects of the practice of yoga, opened me up to another approach and considerably enriched my knowledge and made my way of teaching evolve, bringing me back to who I am, what I love and what I want to pass on. Thank you Delphine for having created this magnificent training that has helped me grow and reconnect with myself." Anne- Laure Beruard
SODAKINI AERIAL YOGA TEACHER TRAINING | PRESENTIAL | limited to 10 participants
"A path of attention to rhythms, to the pulsations and to the subtle divine energy of which we are made that constantly circulates within us".
"The Radiance Sutra" Lorin Roche
SoDakini's creative and fluid philosophy is rooted in Embodied Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga and Tantric philosophy. Tantra, a spirituality that celebrates the nobility of the body by welcoming every breath, every sensation, every emotion as a tool for evolution, takes us into a magical, sacred universe filled with teaching and wisdom.
The Embodied Yoga philosophy offers a tremendous field of possibilities where we develop self-awareness through somatic movement, a conscious movement that adjusts, activates through the fascia system. Binds, unbinds, pauses, connects, adapts, unfolds... Powerful listening from the body✨
Let your mind rest! Learn to refocus your attention on your movement, letting your body speak so that it becomes a source of meditation in motion with less effort. A kinesthetic teaching that believes in the body's wisdom and potential.
The hammock, more than just an accessory! A new tool for enriching your practice, discovering new paths of exploration and transmission. An external stimulant that connects us to our inner fluidity. It teaches us to let go, challenges our internal balance and cultivates our connection to the earth and our freedom to fly.
"Take off for better anchoring
Reconnect and learn from yourself. The SoDakini Aerien Yoga Training is not a finished formula/dogma, but a training that offers you a teaching framework in which you can connect to your full potential for exploration and creativity, a source of upliftment. This somatic approach allows you to experience the possibilities of your body and have a direct conversation with your Self.
"First of all, I'd like to thank you for your commitment and the quality of your courses. It makes me feel
privileged to have benefited from such high-quality training given by a generous person who
puts her vast experience and hard work at the service of people. Each module was rich in
of teaching and discovery. THANK YOU!" Sandrine

PROGRAM
- A practice that connects us to our own sensations and gives them permission to exist through the body. A sensory guidance that activates our senses to find deeper connections. Embodied Yoga.
- Learn to feel and use your body as a source of intelligence, strength and freedom.
- Training where questioning is the answer. Teaching is not about acrobatic performance or what's right or wrong, but about awakening your inner ear, your rhythms, your needs, so that you can blossom with integrity in body and spirit.
- SoDakini offers the support of a methodology that provides a framework for creating your own sequences. Learning creative and evolving sequences SoDakini Vinyasa Flow & Embodied Aerial Yoga.
- Before you can build, you have to be able to feel, so the mornings will be dedicated in part to personal practice guided by Delphine, with moments of "play time" and exercises for 2 to bring the experience to life.
- Learning postures between heaven and earth.
- Exploration and enhancement of movement and transitions that link postures together.
- Learn, create and present 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 a tool for exploration. Inseparable lovers who take pleasure in existing in each other.
- Tantrism, a spirituality that celebrates the nobility of the body, welcoming every breath, every sensation, every emotion as a tool for evolution and elevation. Everyday life as a sacred spiritual approach.
- Bringing together yoga theory and the use of the body through poetry. Inspirational readings throughout the training based on the book "The Radiance Sutras" .
-
- Comprendre le système fascia une anatomie vivante et l’intégrer dans son mouvement
- Apprentissage des principes de mouvements avec le hamac
- Comprendre le « Core » universel (connexion, mouvement du corps dans sa globalité et son intégrité, travail avec les appuis ciel/terre)
- Living anatomy: feet / pelvis / spine and their connections
- Living anatomy: hands / shoulder / torso and their connections
A shift to a practice based on how one feels (Embodied Yoga) rather than on a form to be achieved. The somatic approach sees the body as it is perceived from within, in order to have a direct conversation with the self. A knowledge that privileges our own sensations and explorations. This system of learning favors movement, with the aim of better integrating the cerebral, bodily and sensory faculties, and liberating the capacity to learn.

"I took the aerial yoga course with Delphine. The organization was perfect, the content enriching and of excellent quality. The worlds of yoga, Indian philosophy, somatic movement and aerial yoga were covered with clarity and generosity. Dephine is a beautiful practitioner, with a remarkable artistic background and a passion for embodied yoga. I can only recommend this training to all those who wish to evolve in the sphere of aerial yoga." Perrine
YOUR TEACHER
Delphine SoDakini
Dakini, "she who crosses the sky" or "she who dances in space". The nudity of the goddess Dakini symbolizes the natural, wild state, and according to Buddhist interpretation, the absence of ego or mental obstacle, the self-revealed nature. This "dancing power" inspires her, and sometimes resembles her. Delphine's artistic background is in art, design, dance and aerial arts, where sensual dance has been her means of expression and transmission for many years.
It was during several years living in China that she discovered aerial yoga, which was to be her gateway to the introspective practice of yoga.
Over many years and in different countries (China, India, Hawaii, Switzerland), she developed her own creativity by exploring different practices and styles. Her inspiration comes from Embodied Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Somatic Movement and Tantric philosophy, which develops self-awareness from within the body. As an obvious continuation, she later trained in the Rolfing® / Structural Integration / MyoFascial Release method, a manual therapy and somatic postural education centered on the fascia system, which offers a bodily reharmonization and release of various tensions.
"On this earth, we are incarnated in a body, in my opinion for a good reason that reason doesn't know. The body knows!"
Dakini "who makes women see clearly" (and why not men?), a muse for practice and spiritual transformation. Now Delphine "breathes", transmitting the art of movement and personal development through yoga, aerial yoga, somatic movement and dance, convinced that the body is an open door to our authentic soul. + details
"Yes, I feel qualified to teach Aerial Yoga, and the knowledge transmitted was perfectly adapted to the duration of the training. Delphine has changed my way of teaching Yoga subtly and entirely, through a transmission that resembles her and is unique, she has inspired me without a shadow of a doubt, she is both lunar and solar, her Yoga grasps as it caresses, grandiose!" Camille Barillot
____________
"Delphine has the art of conveying the imperceptible, the subtle, the poetic. That's what prompted me to sign up for her training, and that's what I've gained most from it. During the course, she allowed us to discover our own approach. Allowing us the time and space to do so at our own pace, with complete integrity. This is what I hope to be able to continue to develop and, in turn, pass on in my classes." Aline Deschenaux
