Hormone Yoga training

Led by Sylvia Mullaart (founder of Fusion Yoga), in collaboration with Larissa Pietrala (owner of studio Mama Flow) and Lizzy Wakefield (hormoneyoga.nl).

Who is it for?

This training is intended for certified yoga teachers who have already attended the Hormone Yoga workshop. The workshop serves as a prerequisite, providing an introduction to the material and an opportunity to start practicing in advance.

Location

The Hormone Yoga teacher training takes place over a long weekend at the beautiful venue "Conference Center Samayain" in Werkhoven.

Content

We begin by refining and adapting the classical Hormone Yoga series you learned in the workshop. In addition, you'll explore women’s qigong practices, a moon salutation, facial yoga, and hormone-related exercises from other yoga traditions—so you’ll be fully equipped to lead inspiring Hormone Yoga classes and workshops yourself. The training also includes theoretical knowledge about the hormonal system. You will receive a comprehensive syllabus and a recommended reading list to support your learning. Once all components are completed, you’ll be awarded the Hormone Yoga Teacher Certificate. There will be a private online assessment with Sylvia to ensure you’ve fully mastered the series.

Format

A long Hormone Yoga teacher training weekend at Samaya in Werkhoven (near Utrecht), from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. Includes all meals: generous, organic vegetarian cuisine. You’ll have your own room with a private shower and toilet.

Thanks to practicing Hormone Yoga, I was able to restore my hormonal balance and menstrual cycle (having been diagnosed with PCOS at 28). Even better: I became pregnant naturally at 29, in 2012, through Hormone Yoga—after an unsuccessful medical fertility journey. And at 34, in 2016, I became pregnant with our second child.

Lizzy Wakefield

The Hormone Yoga series is amazing and makes me feel great! I’ve done it every day except yesterday. It’s honestly such a joy!

Participant with mononucleosis and PMS

I’ve been doing the hormone yoga series for just over two months now, and I’m already noticing changes in my cycle—really amazing!

Participant with barely any natural cycle after stopping the pill

Since attending the workshop, I’ve been doing the series every day. It was a great class! Right afterward, I unexpectedly got my period—and that’s a good sign! For the first time in months, it came right on time after 28 days and without warning. I had no cramps, no headaches, no misery. I’m so happy about this.

Participant with menstrual issues

It’s a wonderful series—it really opens up the body, softens, and energizes

Participant with more energy

Since I started practicing hormone yoga, my eczema has completely cleared up—without using any steroid cream!

Participant with eczema symptoms

I did the Hormone Yoga series twice today, and I’ve been doing it every day over the past few weeks. I’m noticing changes: I had a menstruation last week and a sense of warmth in my body. Additionally, the constant feeling of being rushed is decreasing thanks to practicing the Hormone Yoga series. Especially the mental clutter—no longer having a thousand thoughts at once. I also have more structure and feel the need for a tidy home (as much as possible). Not watching TV has been very beneficial—it’s been 5 months now, and I’d like to keep it that way. My internet use has also drastically decreased. So yes, plenty of reasons to continue with Hormone Yoga. I’ve caught the bug!

Participant in ‘early menopause’

I’m noticing a lot of effect, and I’ve been practicing the series regularly. After the workshop with Lizzy, a period arrived the very next day (which normally happens very slowly and with difficulty), and the pain is less.

Participant with PMS complaints

I experienced the workshop as very pleasant; the atmosphere was very relaxed. Lizzy shared her personal experience with the group, which made it easy for others to share their own experiences and motivations. I don’t have any hormone issues (as far as I know), but I would still recommend hormone yoga because it really helps you connect with your (inner) feminine body. The abdominal breathing techniques combined with movement were new to me and definitely worth practicing more often. The healthy Ayurvedic meal was a fantastic addition to the program. It inspired me to refine and enrich my way of eating.

Participant without complaints

In just a few hours, I learned a series of exercises that help balance my hormone system. All the organs involved in hormone production are stimulated through physical and energetic exercises. The exercises are easy to perform. It’s a series that you can benefit from for a lifetime, because from puberty to well beyond menopause, fluctuations in hormone levels can cause all kinds of physical and psychological complaints. The delicious, warm Ayurvedic lunch and the information we received about it made this workshop complete. I consider the workshop a wonderful gift to myself. Afterward, I felt refreshed and inspired to start doing the exercises at home!

Participant at menopausal age

I have benefited enormously from the hormone yoga series. I am doing the series half an hour every day, and I’m noticing an incredible difference. Since the class, I’ve now had my second menstruation. The first ‘PMS week’ was just a week after our class, and it was already noticeable that the PMS symptoms only started 5 days before menstruation (instead of 7 or 10). I also didn’t experience any sadness—just a lot of tension/anxiety and feeling very tired/lacking energy. Today, my second menstruation started, and the only thing I noticed was that I felt tired and slightly negative/unsettled yesterday and the day before. I’m just so incredibly happy with this! And I’ve only been doing it for 5 weeks :-).

Participant with PMS symptoms, depression, and stress

I found the private lesson with Lizzy very pleasant! Everything was very clear to me and not too vague or spiritual. I went to the hospital today, and it already seems to be helping!

Hormone Yoga private lesson

I do a few exercises from memory every day for 10 to 15 minutes, and my menstruation has started again. It feels like everything is literally flowing again. I'm super happy about it, especially considering my desire to have children. I'm very grateful for your help!
