10-Day, 100-Hour Certification


Improve your posture. Reprogram your body with awareness.
Strengthen through proper breathing and learn the correct use of props.

Balance your nervous system, meditate, turn inward,

and connect with the roots and philosophy that sustain the practice of yoga.

 

This course will be led by Marine Larripa and guest teachers.

​

We’ll explore Core Breathing, a technique that delivers excellent results for improving posture in an easy and accessible way for everyone.

​

Even if we are athletes or yoga practitioners, our daily routines often lead us into postural compensations that create biomechanical imbalances, causing stress or pain in certain areas of the body.

​

This technique combines diaphragmatic and rib-cage breathing, guiding us to use our abdominal muscles functionally—both during inhalation and exhalation. When we activate our core muscles in a constant and stable way, the lower back and neck benefit immediately.

​

A common cause of lower back tension is weak or inactive abdominal muscles.
By nature, muscles are designed to support the joints, but poor posture habits have altered this natural pattern.

 

During this 10-day immersion, we’ll work on neuromuscular reprogramming to reestablish communication between the brain and the muscles, helping them function in a balanced and healthy way for the benefit of the spine and hips.

 

Throughout the course, we’ll combine Core Breathing with Hatha Consciente.


As a yoga teacher and lover of asanas, I’ll share dynamic and restorative sequences, blending strength and vitality with the deep relaxation and restoration that yoga offers.

​

Yoga is a path of self-reflection and inner space.


We’ll cultivate our sacred inner spaces through meditation, breathwork, and self-massage, creating an atmosphere that allows us to go inward and enjoy meditative practices fully.

​

This course is designed to renew your practice, find inspiration, and learn breathing and movement techniques that will transform how you perceive your body and your daily breathing.


If you’re a beginner, you’re welcome too — it’s a wonderful way to take care of yourself, gain strength and calmness, and build habits you can carry into everyday life.

​

I’ll also share essential principles of biomechanics to support your yoga practice.
Understanding how muscles work visually will make neuromuscular reprogramming much more effective.

 

When we’re not exploring anatomy and asanas, we’ll dive into the Vedic roots of yoga, its history, the Yoga Sutras, and the eight limbs of yoga, reflecting on how these teachings remain relevant today.

Instructors
​

Mariné Larripa. I have spent thousands of hours teaching and practicing on this path for a couple of decades now.

 

The roots of yoga, what sustains this path, the sacred and ancient texts that speak to us about the Self, the mind, and the qualities, are for me untouchable and a tremendous source of wisdom for leading a life of well-being and communion with the Divine.

 

Regarding asanas, perhaps the most popular aspect of yoga in the West, I have a lot of comments, changes, and adjustments based on our current understanding of biomechanics, anatomy, the spinal column, and so on. The ancient masters didn't have access to as much information, nor did they live in today's society.

 

They didn't spend their lives sitting in chairs from the age of 4 until university and for the rest of their days in office jobs. Our bodies and customs are nothing like those of the Hindus. As contemporary yoga teachers, we need to refresh and renew our knowledge, have the mental flexibility to make changes, and perhaps say no to certain postures that are of no benefit. Challenge and discernment are two things that come naturally to me.

 

I am a mother, wife, yogini, surfer, and in recent years, I have taken up tennis. Anything but sedentary. Restless and active. Yoga has taught me a lot about serenity and calm, two adjectives that didn't fit my main mold. The beauty lies in transforming ourselves, growing, and illuminating our lives and the lives of our loved ones with that clear and distinct light that comes when you commit to yoga. Yoga is a faithful companion throughout life. I love sharing it, my students have always been my great teachers and my greatest inspiration. Hari OM.
