Yoga Teacher Training 200 hours, Holistic Andean Healing
Yoga, expression, and Andean nature
In the Sacred Valley, yoga here is framed as more than movement: it sits alongside emotional exploration and expressive practices such as drawing, with space to name and work through difficult feelings. The program includes a 200-hour yoga teacher training, as well as retreats described as intensive and inward-looking. That depth may appeal to people ready for personal reflection more than visitors after a light activity break. The setting brings nature into the experience, with a yoga studio, café, restaurant, kitchen and housekeeping. Meals feature organic produce, fruits and vegetables, and the kitchen can accommodate vegan, vegetarian, pescetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free diets. Retreats are listed from USD 95, though what that rate includes should be confirmed. Ask the host about the training’s schedule, accommodation arrangements and teaching language before making plans.

Setting
San Salvador’s Sacred Valley setting is described as rich in surrounding nature, with a yoga studio and shared facilities including a café, restaurant and kitchen. Expect a retreat atmosphere oriented toward inward reflection rather than a purely movement-focused getaway.
The practice
Yoga is presented as a connection among thoughts, actions, feelings and emotions, rather than posture alone. Retreats may pair yoga with expressive activities such as drawing and naming difficult feelings, with an emphasis on introspection and emotional release. The center also runs a 200-hour teacher training. Ask the host about the specific methods and experience expected before joining.
