Yoga Training, Yoga Retreats Australia, Yoga Retreat Centre

Over the 20 year period that she has been practicing and teaching yoga, she has developed her own unique vibrant teaching style which is dynamic, inspirational and motivational, underlined with sound anatomical, physiological and bio-mechanical principles, emphasising Intention, Breath and Movement. The cornerstone of her teaching philosophy is the idea that the concepts of Yoga must be first understood through the body, and the dynamic, conscious practice of asana, and meditation.

The Prema Shanti Yoga and Meditation Retreat Centre was created to facilitate Mara’s teaching  methods, which are a blending of Vinyasa, Iyengar, Astanga yoga, and the teachings of the yoga sutras, coupled with her unique approach to sequencing that is specifically designed to meet the needs of today’s yoga student

Janardhan McInosh was the founder and the vision behind the creation of the Prema Shanti Yoga and Meditation Retreat, he first began his yoga and meditation practice in Auckland, New Zealand in 1983 He has never limited his yoga training by aligning himself with any particular style of yoga, (i.e. Astanga, Iyengar, etc)  over a 25yr period has been influenced by all his teachers and mentors, and their love for yoga. Yoga is his passion, and way of life, he began teaching yoga asana and meditation to students in 1997, his philosophy is to empower his students through demonstrating to them, that no matter what their physical condition or age, they can benefit from, and do yoga asana, his emphasis during his yoga classes is on correct alignment in posture and breath. He tailors his classes to the ability of the students to absorb his teaching, to their physical condition, his student's progress quickly because they enjoy and understand what they are practising, he does not inflict any particular style of yoga upon his students. Janardhan has been facilitating and holding yoga retreats in Australia and New Zealand; He lived in a meditation and yoga retreat centre (the Prema Shanti Retreat centre) for 10yrs where he was the resident yoga trainer and meditation instructor.
