29-Day 200-Hour Functional and Somatic Yoga Teacher Training in Canggu

Sean holds a BSc in Physiotherapy and is registered to practice in Australia, where he continues to treat clients. He is Co-Director and teacher at Samasti Yoga.

His teaching is grounded in yoga anatomy, physiology, and traditional Hatha Yoga. He spent five years studying, practicing, and teaching at a Tantric yoga school in Thailand, then completed a 500-hour yoga and meditation YTT with an emphasis on silent retreats and energetic Hatha. For the past six years, he has divided his time between India — studying self-awareness under Sri Prem Baba — and teaching YTT in Bali.

Sean regularly teaches meditation courses, workshops, and retreats for people managing chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and insomnia. He has taught yoga training internationally in Mexico, Thailand, Brazil, Bali, and Australia.

Tomer is a trained psychotherapist and yoga teacher with 10 years of teaching experience. He is Co-Director and teacher at Samasti Yoga.

Over a 12-year pilgrimage, he traveled through monasteries and ashrams, attended yoga retreats, and studied Eastern mysticism, Buddhism, and traditional Indian Tantra. The teachings he received shaped his practice and his understanding that the answers ultimately come from within.

Tomer brings his psychotherapy background and personal dedication to each class, guiding with awareness and an open heart.

Bernd has maintained a dedicated daily yoga practice since 2001. He came to yoga from the performing arts, and eventually let the stage life fade to focus fully on yogic study.

He works with asana, pranayama, meditation, and philosophical study. His aim as a teacher is to give each student what they need in the moment, which has led him to study multiple movement modalities, meditation traditions, and philosophical approaches.

Bernd has a deep interest in yoga for therapeutic use and as a path toward freedom and truth. His teaching draws from Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Yoga, and the yogic approach to therapy. He is especially passionate about the variety of meditation practices and traditions.

Expect to be challenged in his classes, but never pushed — always with kindness and care.

Charlotte began practicing yoga during her university studies in Clinical Psychology, initially guided only by a book. She later became a certified Hatha yoga teacher through the Institute of Yoga in Mumbai, training at their ashram north of Chiang Mai, Thailand.

While teaching Hatha in southwest France, she recognized the link between Western psychology and Indian philosophy. She spent time in Mysore, India, learning the Ashtanga system and Mysore-style teaching. She now integrates her clinical psychology background into what she calls "yoga psychology."

Her classes combine the subtle body with physical asana, based on the chakra system and linked to modern mental needs. She uses the body as an instrument to let fear, guilt, shame, and grief speak and integrate.

Charlotte is also an Ayurvedic practitioner. This sister science enriches her teaching, and she alternates between dedicated Ashtanga practice and softer, slower practices according to season and energy level, as Ayurveda recommends.

Cristina is a devoted student and passionate teacher who shares her journey while staying true to the essence of yoga. Her teaching focuses on developing a conscious relationship with yourself and your authentic voice as a teacher — so that you teach in a way that supports your essence, nourishes your heart, and connects to your students.

Her spiritual journey began 15 years ago with yoga, meditation, and Hawaiian shamanism. She studied with master teachers including Mark Breadner, Nicole Walsh, Shiva Rea, and the Himalayan Institute.

Cristina understands yoga as a system for living our highest possibility. She weaves philosophy, asana, breath, and meditation in creative, intelligent sequencing that moves between traditional and modern to honor both yogic tradition and the modern human experience.

She has taught internationally in Australia, Bali, and South America.
