Accreditation

This is a 40-hour fully accredited course by the British Wheel of Yoga and Yoga Alliance Professionals and gives you the skills to teach group menopause workshops and classes.

This course is open to all qualified 200 Hour yoga teachers of any age who identify as women, trans or non-binary. 

You do not have to be in a stage of the menopause to train to teach Menopause Yoga.

Retreat venue:

You will be staying at Florence House, a traditional country manor located at the top of Seaford head on the edge of the South Downs, East Sussex. It is just 5 minutes from the beach if you'd like to swim in the sea or stroll along the coast to watch the sunset.

The house is surrounded by lush landscapes and sea breezes.  Florence House is described by many as a place of inspiration and calm, that reveals the potential of each guest through the healing energy of the space. The walled garden provides a peaceful place for meditation or inner reflection. And the retreat owners are committed to creating an environment that supports health and wellbeing.

Facilities:

You will have sole use of the whole house & grounds, garden yurt, accommodation, breakfast, lunch, dinner, unlimited teas, coffees and fruit.

Yoga Room & Yurt:

There is a dedicated room for practicing yoga in the house with views of the gardens - and there is a magical yurt!

Nestled at the bottom of the wild garden, the round Yurt provides a place for our women's circle discussions and meditation.  We will gather there after breakfast in the mornings.

Nutritious Meals:

Meals are prepared by the in-house Chef in accordance to your requirements. All produce is locally sourced where possible, sometimes as local as the Florence House vegetable garden!

The retreat serves hearty and nutritious meals, which are vegetarian but they can also cater for special diets e.g. Vegan, gluten free etc. There is an extra £5.00 fee per meal for Vegan and other options.

Accommodation:

The teacher training course is limited to max 18 - and this group may be smaller in size.

This is to ensure you have the best learning experience and have the opportunity to get to know each other.

Florence House can accommodate up to 18 people in single rooms, but you may choose to share a room with a friend - all the prices are the same.  The rooms are not luxurious, but they are comfortable, clean and peaceful.
