8 DAY
In-person Immersion
If you are inspired to visit our facility and go deeper into the experiential portion of training, we now offer an 8 day in person immersion
April 13-20, 2024
Please notify the office ASAP to secure your spot in this immersion.
This immersion includes all food, snacks and materials. It is offered to students enrolled in the Hybrid 300 but may be added at an additional fee if any students studying exclusively online decide they would like to add it later.
(Housing is offered for a separate fee and can be reserved through the office)
The in-person component supports experiential learning and is inspirational and vital to one's personal development as a yogi. We have completed a number of online trainings that did not include any time here at Heartwood and the feedback has been that they wished they had some portion of the training in-person. This will make it possible to get a powerful yoga teacher training education while spending only one week away from home.
We are so excited to welcome you to this immersion on April 13 -20th, 2024 (arrival on Friday April 12th by 6pm & Departure Sunday, April 20th by 8am).
**If you have not paid for your housing,
please do so asap to secure your desired room**
Airport pick-ups from Tampa International Airport are at 4:30pm on arrival day Friday April 12th. If you decide you'd rather rent a car or Uber to Heartwood, instead of waiting for our free pick-up service, you are welcome to do so. Tampa airport is about 45 minutes away from us.
Please send your flight information no later than April 5th,2024 to contactheartwoodyoga@gmail.com to ensure pick up.
Airport pickups from Sarasota Airport are more flexible, since this airport is only 25 minutes from Heartwood.
Departure Day is Sunday, April 20th 2024, and dorms must be cleared by 10am to allow our cleaning crew to enter. The shuttle to Tampa airport departs between 7-8 am on this day or you can take an Uber or drive with a friend from training if you would rather leave later that day or on Saturday night (keep in mind we will not finish our program until Saturday evening around 6pm). If you need to leave Heartwood earlier than 7am to make it to the airport, you will need to provide your own transportation.
