This is what former teacher trainees say about
our yoga teacher trainings in Bali
Dear Beate,
I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this unforgettable experience that you made possible for us.
You guided and accompanied us with a lot of experience, foresight, understanding, heart and intuition. I find the combination of these beautiful places, the TT and the vacationers very balancing and varied. I can only imagine how many years of experiences, knowledge, sweat and joy you have brought to us.
I also found that you gave Tanja, Theresa and Pablo a lot of space for new and additional topics. Of course, my thanks also go to them, but you made it possible.
For us students, the journey to internalize what we have learned, to go deeper, to really understand is only just beginning. Even though I did this training to improve my practice, to be honest, the varied program, the places, the special excursions were a bit of a vacation (that I was allowed).
And what I also took away from this time and from you is a lot of inspiration, experience of things that I didn't know before. You couldn't really determine how much you gave to our group over the last few weeks, which is why I would like to pay tribute to your commitment and your being there for the group. I hope that you now have a little more time for yourself and your private life.
Teaching my first practice will not only be dedicated to the Patanjali hymn, but above all to you.
I wish you, your family and all your loved ones all the best for the future!
Sincerely,
Martin
Dear Beate,
I would like to write you some feedback here. While researching what options there are to do a YogaTeacherTraining in Bali, I quickly came across your website & felt intuitively drawn to it. After comparing other YTT offers on the island, I chose your training because it is the only one that is offered in German & you were able to book accommodation for a fair price. I also liked the fact that you stay in two different accommodations & that there are also excursions on the program. So you also have the opportunity to explore the island a bit. Looking back, I can say THANK YOU for trusting my intuition and allowing me to do the training with you as my teacher. You bring your whole heart, your experience of the last decades & your knowledge of yoga to your classes. I couldn't have wished for a better teacher. You were there for us every day and carried our group through the personal transformations with so much love & understanding, it was incredible!!! The variety with other yoga teachers was also very exciting as it allowed us to get to know different styles. The accommodations, especially the ones in the mountains, were magical. I would choose this experience again at any time and can recommend your training to future yoga teachers without reservation.
From the heart and Namaste

Hello my dear Beate,
as promised my feedback:
Planning/Organization/Mgmt: Despite or just because everything conspired to our "spiritual awakening" I found the organization excellent. If you had not said that it was actually planned differently, one would not have noticed anything 🙂 . A small drawback was perhaps that we had to move on the day off, so there was not really much time at your own disposal, but it was due to the circumstances and that has nothing to do directly with the organization.
Meditation/Pranayama: Excellent. I had great moments. It was well structured, a gentle introduction to the long meditation and the somewhat challenging breathing techniques.
Yoga Asana Practice: I would have liked a bit more variety, but I realize that it was necessary to practice the Ananda 8 so often.
Theory: Excellent. You have a very great wealth of knowledge and shared it with us. I was very inspired by this. Thank you very much.
Main Teacher and Assistant Teacher: I could not have imagined better teachers. Each one of you is very special 🙂 . I only wish I could have benefited more from Pablo's impressive knowledge, it was difficult for me due to the language barrier. I will work on that.
Accommodation, premises: There is little to complain about. Would also like to complain no more 😉 ...Each accommodation had its advantages and "disadvantages". Each accommodation had its charm. There was none where I would not have felt comfortable. Can be maintained in my opinion.
Food/drink: a dream! The variety of the different accommodations was also good.
Optional extras/excursions: it was nice that we set off together in your car. That was a real luxury. The chosen destinations are definitely worth seeing.
What I liked most was the inspiration from different sources, people, nature, accommodations, country, people, literature. Much of what I was already aware of in theory has manifested itself and is now easier for me to understand and apply. I also found the feedback round great, to be allowed to see myself through the eyes of others....bin very grateful for the great advice.
I can't think of anything that could have been better....it was just right the way it was.
I would say overall it was one of the best experiences in my life so far and has set further foundation stones for my personal growth, released old blocks and strengthened my self-confidence enormously. I am very grateful to you dear Beate for sharing your knowledge and kindness of heart with me.
Heartfelt greetings.
Namaste.

Having started up again doing more Yoga practice I came along the Bali Yoga Studio in Vienna. The atmosphere, the studio decoration, look and feel, the vibes, all the trainers and of course upfront Beate all is a fantastic experience. I found MY place! From the first day I felt everyone is taking care, with love, with real interest and also understanding my shortcomings or problem areas, shoulder, back etc. and also any mental hurdles. The yoga practise, the perfect explanations, the sensibility, the meditations all is just beyond what I could think of. In summery I felt very well taken care of and all the other participants of the yoga session I have the impression do feel the same.
After a year of intense Yoga lessons the opportunity came across to join my first teacher training in Bali. My intention was to learn more about myself, others and also grow as a human. What an mind-blowing experience !
Not only this was the first time in my life I had three and half weeks off and no connection to my job, family, I enjoyed the most powerful experience with great teachers Beate and……name name …….ever! The Island, the wonderful lovely Balinese people, BEATE, all the teacher, the other very inspiring students the great Balinese resort, the excellent quality of the food, service, the many many smiles of all. All was an impressive learning, experience by also pushing limits I wish everyone could do at least once in a life time.
Upfront the great learning, the very intense experience what was discussed, trained, the millions of new thoughts, impressions, meditations, the felt thousand yoga poses with all details, Buddhism, the history of yoga, sensations and again Beate with all her positive energy and vibes ensuring we are all well on track, well looked after and enjoying this journey. For me it was the best experience I could ever have dreamt of and still today helps me every day dealing with all the challenges and opportunities in life.
Thank you Beate for still today making my life journey an even more exiting one. I am very thankful for knowing you, you joining my journey and for all your wisdom you are sharing with me
Warm regards

From the organization, the communication, the training, the food, the accommodation and the excursions! Simply everything was top, top, top! Thank you, Beate, for the wonderful time, which I enjoyed immensely and learned and took away a lot of new things. I can and will wholeheartedly recommend you to others and will be happy to come back at any time if time permits!
The time in Bali at the Bali Yoga Teacher Training was a quite amazing and inspiring time for me and I couldn’t have chosen it better neither the place nor the teachers Billie and Bruno who guided the group through the process of a beginning transformation with love and consequence. Not to forget mentioning the other teachers of the training as Rachel and Andrew who impressed me with their breathtaking way of teaching.
I will never forget what they all brought into my life!
I would like to say THANK YOU again, the 4 weeks in February have given me a beautiful drive and brought me in a direction I would not have expected. You have given me so much strength and at the same time peace and balance that I did not know yet. I feel much more grounded and intuitive and perceive my world so much more intensely. I have not only learned a lot about myself with you in Bali, but also found friends for life and I am incredibly grateful to you for that.
teaching from the heart…
living from the heart…
nature paradise, luxury living, healthy, delicious food, great people, unforgettable experience!!!
being encouraged to discover the true self, push the limits, create strength and find peace within…
baliyoga teacher training with lovely beate and bruno: the most inspiring, loving, challenging, life-changing three weeks…so much knowledge, joy, healing, enthusiasm, progress… I feel deeply touched and so blessed that I was part of it!
thank u beate, bruno, andrew, rachel, christine, christa, christiane, daniel, cindy, carmen, raphaela, andrea, the crew of the villa, all the lovely balinese people
The teacher training with Beate, Bruno, Rachel, Andrew, Mirah and the wonderful group of invariably lovely people was the most wonderful experience. I could not ever have chosen a better first teacher training for me – it was perfect! The atmosphere could not have been more loving and comforting, still it was very demanding and a lot to learn during the tight schedule of these 3 weeks in Bali. Nonetheless, Billie did her very very best to include the balinese culture, show us as much as she possibly could of the beautiful island and make the very most of these 3 weeks with us, it was incredible how she filled every second of the day with valuable experiences! We saw, learned and experienced so much and truly transformed permanently in such a positive way. The resort we stayed in can only be described as stunning, a real nourishing oasis in the big oasis of Bali, and all of the staff was so immensely lovely and kind. Billie made sure we had the best quality of food during the training which i personally especially appreciate, truly it was a totally detoxing experience on all levels: the meditation, the yoga, the clean food, and everything else she organised for us on the free days: the massage, the cranio sacral, the spa recommendations, …. The teachers, who were with us at all times, gave their all, and so did the students for a sincerely unforgettable experience. There was room for all questions, and all concerns, we learned so much and I will always remember this unique and phenomenal time exceeding all possible expectations! Thank you!
The RYS 200 with Bali Yoga Wien was a great experience. Beate Mc Latchie (lead teacher), Bruno Teyssandier (lead teacher), Rachel Ellery (guest teacher) and Andrew Mournehis (guest teacher) have been very skilled teachers with great hearts, creating a wonderful atmosphere where everyone could thrive. I can warmly recommend Bali Yoga Wien, their trainings and classes…. Beate, Bruno, Rachel, Andrew – big thanks to all of you!
First and foremost, I did the Yoga Teacher Training for myself to broaden my horizons. My goal was to get a deeper access and a holistic understanding of yoga. To build a knowledge of what one does in yoga practice for what reason and with what goal.
My expectations were met one hundred percent. I was able to acquire an incredibly broad knowledge with the Teacher Training and have multi-layered experiences. The structure of the training is well thought out and leads the students step by step deep into the yoga subject matter. For the asana practice, the "Ananda 8", a sequence of 26 postures, is a wonderful tool that helps me even now after the training to simplify my personal yoga practice or to prepare entire classes.
Beate and Bruno are two incredibly experienced and good teachers who do their work with heart and soul. They pass on their knowledge without censorship, motivate and inspire. They are not only teachers, but also friends who are always there when you need them.
The training is physically and mentally demanding, but it is this demanding that creates a focus on yoga that would not be possible for me in my daily environment.
I can highly recommend the Teacher Training at "Bali Yoga Vienna" to everyone.

Students of the teacher trainings in Vienna, Austria are saying:
It was the right time to start this journey at Bali Yoga Wien and I am very grateful to had the opportunity to learn from Beate McLatchie, Anne Haferburg and Klaus Giritzhofer as well as several guest teachers. It was an amazing experience and beyond what I did expect. It was the perfect combination of yoga philosophy, anatomy and practice. I feel confident to now start my teaching career based on what I have learned and been trained for by Beate, Anne and Klaus.
Hard to describe how wonderful the training at Bali Yoga in Vienna was! I am incredibly happy and satisfied to have chosen this studio. So much love, tradition and eye for detail. Top trained teachers, extremely authentic and so incredibly helpful, everyone is seen and treated as a unique individual. This training here is worth every cent. As soon as the 300h training is available I will book myself in immediately 🙂 It has catapulted my body and mind so far up the ladder! Here I was really allowed to enjoy the best school of life and I am incredibly grateful for all the great people I met here. Simply magical!
It was a very intense time. I needed the free Christmas time to process and let it sink in. But I would not want to miss this time. Especially the knowledge and the experiences of the teachers still fascinate me and also the way in which they passed on their knowledge to us. I can recommend the training 100%. Also the cordial contact with everyone. I am looking forward to seeing you again!

The yoga teacher training is very holistic and allows a lot of room for individual development due to the small group size. The contents are taught in an exciting and professional way and the yoga classes and asana labs quickly create progress in your own practice. The training is taught by great yoga teachers and you feel ready to teach after the 200h training.

Students of the Bali Yoga Wien studio in Vienna, Austria are saying:
I had many different yoga teachers, but Beate is incomparable! With her my body and mind is strengthened, I am challenged and at the end exhausted and happy. Also the laughter never comes too short! I can no longer imagine yoga without Beate!
Yoga with Beate brings body and mind - man and universe - into harmony. The classes are diverse and varied: meticulous work through the asanas according to Iyengar, sweaty or breezy flows with music and dance, plus always room for yoga theory and philosophy. For me, just the right mix of fun and profoundness!
When I entered the door of Beate’s Yoga Studio I just wanted to “try Yoga”, because of my “from time to time back pain”. At that time, I didn’t know that this step in will change my life. I improved my health, saw the way to happiness and joy, and discovered the whole Path I want to follow in my life. Practicing Yoga with Beate almost for four years I am so happy I entered exactly her door. The Yoga she teaches is holistic. I trustfully follow her instructions during asana practice because of her deep understanding of body anatomy, technics of asanas, and vast experience. Her profound knowledge of Yoga Philosophy makes classes interesting and useful in daily life. Classes include every aspect of Yoga – meditation, pranayama, asana practice, philosophy, and bright sense of humor, which makes it easier to integrate this complex teaching into my Life – on and off the mat! I can only recommend you join her community as well!
“The plan was a single boot camp with Beate in December last year. And here I am still 3 years later. Love every single class with her!“

Beate's classes have been so important for me. I started yoga because I had physical problems that no doctor could cure completely. But through Beate's kind, inspiring but disciplined guidance I have experienced a self-discovery that has not only cured my back but has been so positive on many dimensions. I can only whole-heartedly say that Beate is a remarkable yoga master who teaches yoga at the highest physical level but also transmits a wisdom for living.
