About the venue
|
The 23 day Teacher Training Program with the Mohans will be held at the beautiful Kookaburra Creek Yoga Centre in the Perth hills. Only 35 minutes from Perth and Fremantle, Kookaburra Creek is a sanctuary for seekers to experience the peacefulness of pristine nature and a dedicated yoga shala designed and built to be in harmony with the natural environment.
The centre is approximately 40 minutes or less from most places in Perth and 30 minutes from Perth International Airport. The nearest train station is Armadale which is a 5 minute Uber ride or a 30 minute walk. Kookaburra Creek is an ecofriendly venue and a working example of sustainability – run on solar, spring-fed water sources, with organic, vegetarian food gardens, and earth and animal friendly living spaces in harmony with the natural world. During the program breaks you are welcome to enjoy bush walks on the property where there is much native flora and fauna including towering marri trees which are home to red tailed cockatoos, kookaburras and owls. There are many native marsupials including kangaroos, and abundance of frogs, lizards, bees and everything which contributes to a thriving ecosystem! Nearby to the shala is a beautiful residence where participants in the Training Program are welcome to stay for an immersive retreat for the duration of the program (from 26 April - 19 May). This option will suit those travelling to Perth for the program, or local people wishing to take a break from everyday life to give their training with the Mohans full focus. A residential retreat will provide you with a rare opportunity to be fully immersed in the program - with the time and space to reflect on what you've learnt. Without the distractions of everyday life and responsibilities you'll more deeply and quickly assimilate the timeless wisdom shared by the Mohans. Included in the accommodation price is breakfast and dinner, and free attendance at the scheduled evening classes at Kookaburra Creek during your stay.

Accommodation Options
The program is open to participants staying off-site and also those who would like to live on-site during the program - which is a wonderful opportunity to live in a supportive, ashram-like environment with a shared focus. Residential guests participate in seva (volunteering) and also mouna (silence in evenings & early morning) to contribute to the harmony and inward focus required by the program. A simple nutritious vegan breakfast and dinner will be provided daily. Guests can also attend scheduled yoga classes at the centre in the evenings free of charge.
There are only a limited number of on-site accommodation places available staying in spacious, shared rooms; in small enclosed gazebos on the property; or camping in your own tent/campervan on-site. The retreat centre has been recently refurbished to provide a comfortable, serene and safe environment for guests. Please book early to reserve a residential space on-site as these will fill quickly.
The training program is also suited to Perth residents who can stay in their own homes, and visitors who stay off-site in the accommodation of their choice. Nearby there are lovely rooms and homes on AirBnB – book early so you don’t miss out. Nearby there are also self-contained chalets at Avocados Chalets, Roleystone (5 minutes drive).
