This is the next step and it’s unlike anything else out there.
A very unique training
Your 200-hour training gave you a start. This training takes you into the depths.
This 300-hour training with Nicky is where yoga stops being something you do and starts becoming something you live. This training is about deepening your education in a practical and integrated way that becomes something that is not seperate to you life. The path becomes directly embodied. The spiritual becomes a recognition.
This training helps to point you in the right direction and drop you righting the depths with personalised support and absolute care in tailoring each and every teaching to you! With a limit on the group size, Nicky ensures this training maintains intimacy and maintains an integrity of each student being seen, heard and supported from start to finish.
There are many advanced trainings out there but this one is different. This is no cookie-cutter training. It’s where your teaching evolves, your practice matures, and your understanding expands in ways that are both practical and profound.
It’s about depth, refinement, and awakening something real inside you. Designed by Nicky with extraordinary care, this training is a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the heart of yoga and Vedic philosophy, guided by someone who truly lives it.
It’s all about YOU
Learning yoga is better when it’s tailored to you, the old fashioned way, directly from teacher to student. That’s why Nicky has capped the student numbers to have limited spots available, ensuring every student is seen and heard. Nicky shares from his diverse wealth of knowledge and experience in designing a training with a combination of structured teachings along with free-flowing space for discussion where he can explore each student’s questions and comprehension with depth.
This curated experience of yoga is created with great attention to detail in nurturing while challenging your journey of yoga in the most effective way to develop your practice, knowledge and teaching skills. Nicky teaches from the heart and with relatability to guide you in an integrated and experiential way. Ensuring you leave the training with an expanded mind and heart, allowing you to share your love and passion for yoga with intelligence, passion, confidence, clarity and integrity.
This training is for yoga teachers who have completed their 200 hour training and wanting to take their practice and teaching to another level.
ABOUT YOUR TEACHERS
Nicky Grimsdale

I’m brimming with joy to share this training. After teaching over 22 YTT’s, I wanted to design an ultimate post-graduate training that is the fullest expression of my knowledge, experience and deep love of yoga.

This training is layered and detailed in it’s design to be organically and personally transformative. This is created through the teachings being an effortless embodiment of yoga’s most profound philosophies, creating a process of practical and relatable education resulting in experiential understanding.
This will be a very unique training that is sure to expand your heart and mind, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

Read on for Nicky’s full story: About Nicky
Ash Brown
Meditation Teacher
A career-ending injury while representing the Australian National Soccer Team became an unexpected doorway into Ashley’s greatest discovery, the profound healing and transformational capacity of yoga & meditation.
What began as a tool for physical recovery soon evolved into a lifelong journey of spiritual inquiry and self-realisation. Yoga became not just a practice, but a path - a way of exploring the nature of reality, the mind, and the heart.
Ashley now shares the art of mindfulness and movement to open the gates of self-inquiry in others, so those seeking, can reconnect with more meaning, belonging, and purpose in their lives.
Her path has led her through India and beyond, studying yoga, meditation, and ancient wisdom traditions - exploring how these timeless teachings remain profoundly relevant in the heart of modern life.
Ashley creates experiences that are both physically empowering and deeply introspective. Her mission is to keep these sacred & timeless teachings accessible and alive — to guide the modern seeker toward self-awareness, transformation, and inner awakening.

A word from Nicky about Ash
It would be enough to simplify this testimonial to one line:
Ash is one of the best meditation teachers I know and I couldn’t imagine anyone else teaching meditation on this training.
…but let me shed more light (and praise) on this very authentic and wonderful human.
Ash has a way of teaching that is firmly rooted in embodied and experiential understanding of the knowledge she shares. Her clear and precise explanations of yoga’s deepest philosophies come across with ease and it’s a joy to learn from someone who is clearly deeply knowledgeable, thoughtful and good at what they do. Ash teaches from the heart and her presence is a palpable force of energy that inspires and educates. I can’t wait to have her on this post-graduate training.
