UPLEVEL:
A Retreat for Yoga Teachers.
SOLD OUT: reach out to join next year.
Leadership : Confidence : Community
March 27 - 30, 2025
It’s a thrill to combine UPLEVEL, a 30-hour teacher training, with a warm, cosy retreat in the countryside.
UPLEVEL is a training for yoga teachers, designed to bring out the leader you are innately meant to be. With a new and improved syllabus, it combines inner work with teaching technique to project you onward, whether you’re a newly graduated or experienced teacher.
This 3 night/4 day retreat is more than another teacher training.
We’ll refine teaching technique with a focus on hands on assists, sequencing and cueing with clarity.
We’ll weave inner work with this, and you’ll see what authentic leadership means for you.
Each teacher will receive personalised support to unveil strengths, recognise blocks, and bring a new offering/project to life.
Bridge the gap between what you know, who you are,
and teach from there.
What’s included
3 nights accommodation.
Delicious vegetarian meals using local produce and prepared with love (gluten free/vegan an option).
Completion of UPLEVEL, a 30-hour training for teachers: six modules bringing you to your highest potential.

Rooms
Single, double, triple and quad options available.
The retreat house sleeps 14 with mostly double, triple and quad shared options available. I have a limited amount of single options. All with shared bathrooms.
The space has many windows to enjoy the landscape, and we’ll have a beautiful yoga shala to move and dive into the material.
A separate kitchen and dining area and living area will bring us together for meals and time to connect.
A spacious, well lit room shared with three or four other teachers. Warm and cosy, and enough room for you to settle in.
Our chef : Melanie Werhli
With over 12 years experience in the Berlin hospitality scene and her own unique pop ups, Melanie knows how to cook to complement our days as we move through practice, contemplation, good times and rest.
Melanie uses local and organic produce to create food that is simple, nourishing, and aesthetically beautiful.
Location: Wietstock
Our retreat home is located in the small village of Wietstock in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, about two hours drive from Berlin.
Neighbouring a farm and wide open spaces, the 20,260 sq metre property is surrounded by nature, meadows with medicinal herbs, and peace and quiet.
The residence is a 420 sq metre house with bright, light filled rooms and old wooden beams and floors. To keep us warm and cosy, we’ll have a fireplace and if desired, time to sauna.
Drive from Berlin: approximately two hours.
Train from Berlin: The RE 3 runs from Berlin to Ducherow.
Reach out for commute details and upon booking, I can connect you with other attendees in case you want to organise traveling together.

FAQ’s
How do I get to the accommodation?
You will need to organise your own transportation. It’s about two hours out of Berlin, or there is a train option. Once every one has signed up I will help link you all up so you can car share.
I’ve completed my 200 YTT but haven’t started teaching, can I still join?
Absolutely! This retreat is for teachers of all levels, and some of the modules are created to help you make the leap and start teaching. The work of growth is transformational, and everyone will have their own epiphanies and breakthroughs.
I’m an experienced teacher, will I get anything out of UPLEVEL?
Most definitely. Many teachers have ideas and are scared to bring them to life. Others can’t find a sustainable gig, and burn out. UPLEVEL will unveil ideas and strengths, and inspire you to lead from your most truthful place.
How many people will be on the retreat?
I have a max of 12 spots available, so we’ll form a bond like no other on this training.
What should I bring?
We’ll have busy days, but there will be regular breaks for you to get social, or explore the outdoors. Bring some warm socks, slippers, hiking boots, notebook and pens.
Can I come early and stay longer?
Yes! It’s beautiful and peaceful here, with air b & b options in the region if you’d like a longer stay.
What’s your cancellation policy?
