Teacher Training Application Process

Applications for teacher training programs are individually reviewed. Due to the structure and intensity of our teacher training programs, enrollment is very limited. We accept last-minute applications if there is space in the program. Submission of your application indicates that you have read, understood and agreed to all of the requirements for the training. Once you submit your application, please email a color photo to sunny@yogasurfingretreats.com or post to PO Box 449, Lennox Head, NSW Australia. When we have received your deposit, you will receive an email receipt. If you have not heard from us after one week, please email sunny@yogasurfingretreats.com.

A $250 non refundable deposit is payable upon application. The deposit is deducted from the total cost of the Teacher Training fee.  Also, if you choose to stay at any of our selected accommodation sites there will be a 50% non refundable deposit required to hold your reservation (this is standard throughout Australia). The invoice dates for the accommodation deposit will be emailed to you.   Please refer to the Student Handbook, practical information and confirmed student log in pages on our website for all further details regarding the accommodation and prices and updating information.

  • If the balance of the course fee is not received by the notified due date a student's place may be offered to someone on a waiting list.
  • Payment plans are available for  certain circumstances. Please email the Director for this.
