200-Hour Teacher Training
After two years of different trainings, but with a multitude of common points, because incredible and unique, the 3rd and new edition of the 200h Yoga Teacher Training at Cocoon is finally official. Phew. In the sense of “finally!” the idea of “wow” works just as well.
The 200h of 2025 is also shaping up to be half-traditional, half-unprecedented, and will therefore be unprecedented.
This year, Clo, once again accompanied by Sandra Insoha and other inspiring teachers and speakers, will teach a 200-hour training course between Cocoon and the Internet. Let us explain: 30 of the 200 hours will be online to facilitate the organization and presence of students on this 17-day face-to-face training course.
This new edition will include an inventory of the fundamental themes of the tradition and philosophy of yoga, taught simultaneously with techniques for creating intelligent and unique classes and sequences for each individual.
We will also go to meet introductions to new themes and methodologies: Chinese medicine, the practice of Katonah Yoga, hypnosis, the importance of inner language, how our brain works with neurolinguistic programming (NLP), “myofascial release” techniques, sound healing or even business mindset and innovative marketing workshops.
No opposition between arts and sciences. No opposition between pedagogy and creativity.
This new program is open to all those who wish to acquire strong and complete knowledge of yoga and to learn complex, plural know-how and techniques with multiple applications when creating a unique, interesting, and playful class.
These 200 hours will not only teach you how to guide a group in a safe and incredible way but also how to achieve your own goals. The richness of all these concepts will truly apply to each person wishing to create a new range of personal panoramas and create different and inspiring habits for a rich and happy life.
We will focus on the techniques and know-how of yoga while combining this teaching with the essence of the voice and each person's story. Where these two overlap, it is the truth. Total. The truth, what you feel, what you have experienced, is, in our opinion, the best teaching. Both are stored in our body, our energy, and our mind.
The approaches of yoga, anatomy, and our personal spirituality will allow you to acquire unique tools to understand this whole symphony and thus grow. Heal. Find your essence. Help others.
You will discover yourself as a student, teacher, and, above all, as an individual in knowledge, sincerity, sharing, and pleasure!
The 200 hours are training courses in complete yoga teaching, enriching personal analyses, and discoveries of new practices around sharing a common passion with an open, cool, and inspiring group.
We are, therefore, officially announcing the vision of a new educational and creative training project for 2025.

PLACE
The teacher training will take place in Cocoon in Portugal, a magical place along the Portuguese coast called “Coastal Alentejo,” a two-hour drive south of Lisbon.
Cocoon's property is a renovated family farm adapted to host yoga groups for retreats and trainings. Some friends and teachers like Talia Sutra, Krissy Jones or Toni Lupinacci regularly teach at Cocoon.
This house is a bubble of peace and inspiration. The two yoga shalas located within the house itself, as well as in the garden of the property, offer comfortable and perfect spaces for daily yoga practice, but also for methodology classes and other classes and workshops. The super sound system and the presence of an overhead projector allow you to listen to and visualize art and music in an engaging and new way. Lives, films and broadcasts on projects and analyses will be presented during the training to promote inspiration and pay close attention to the origin of our imagination.
Regarding sleep, the spacious and very cozy rooms offer access and views of the fields or the garden and the expanses of greenery of the property. Many spaces are available to relax and read, like the living room with well-cushioned sofas, deckchairs on the grass, the hammock on the terrace, the pontoon along the pond, or the swing overlooking the vegetable garden. The triple and double rooms all have private bathrooms, apart from the two single rooms that share the toilet space.
Culinarily, meals will be mainly vegetarian, no meat during the training, but eggs from the farm's chickens and local cheeses will be served regularly as well as wild Atlantic fish once a week. All cooked with love by local chefs and in culinary residency at Cocoon.
The quality of the products coming from the Cocoon farm and neighboring farms is simply incredible, making each meal a taste experience, healthy and soothing, where one can, there too, feel inspired in this “culinary creativity”.
Mornings will be punctuated by teas, coffees and snacks (fruits, dried fruits, almonds, nuts, etc.), then lunches will provide all the vitamins and energy needed between classes and practices.
Composed salads, vegetable bowls, frittata, eggs, avocado, Greek yogurt, homemade bread, quinoa, tofu, nori, nuts and in short, always lots of colors.
Dinners will be warm and comforting meals such as curries, hummus, soups, fish or other selections depending on the season and what inspires the chefs. On some nights, a homemade surprise will be served for dessert, then herbal teas or drinks containing holistic mushrooms or raw cacao will be offered for the evening session.
The dishes and creations are super healthy while being varied and tasty. We love it. A lot, it's a delight.
Vegetarian, vegan or other dietary meal options are possible and must be specified during the post-registration questionnaire.
ENVIRONMENT
Cocoon is a large property that offers a vast outdoor space with a garden, a lake, and a great view of the farm animals… Goats, peacocks, and chickens.
Direct access to a multitude of two magnificent hiking trails also starts from the house: it will therefore also be possible to go for a short run or go for a walk with your head in your thoughts through nature. Finally, magnificent wild beaches are accessible within a five-minute drive from Cocoon. These very untouristy beaches and cliffs are absolutely beautiful and are perfect spots for a sunset, meditation, or even a refreshing swim.
Finally, the Cocoon staff, generous and welcoming, will do everything to make the students feel good!

PREREQUISITES
This 200h Teacher Training is open to all: this point is essential. Clo and Sandra teach yoga methods and self-analysis through a unique and worked pedagogical approach so that each student integrates, understands, and knows how to use and play with these new approaches and techniques.
It is recommended to already practice yoga regularly, but there is no need to have an “advanced” practice or to know how to do handstands or other inversions. Or to touch your feet. Or to do the splits.
The most important thing is to have an open mind and to leave room for this transformative experience. This training will require work on oneself, letting go of the ego and expectations, as well as allowing oneself to undertake a different journey to open the mind and eye to one's intuition, to music, and to one's visions. It is required for this training to accept the rejection of the superfluous and to welcome sensitivity. We will always work from a "safe space" where the energy will be unconditional, warm, and listening, guided by serious and experienced teachers.
These three weeks will also be playful and reflect Clo's vision of life: expect surprises and conceptual experiences that are enriching and transcendent.
Once registered, you will receive reading tips to study and suggestions for different media to watch to prepare yourself.
Graduation if you pass the exam and have 100% attendance for the three weeks. This will also mean that you are 100% present for yourselves.

TESTIMONIALS
“Three very intense but magical weeks!
I meditated and did yoga every morning with Clotilde and it was surprising and motivating every day. We learned how to build flows, understand the philosophy and history of yoga, create yoga playlists, and more. Everything came together to make me want to become a yoga teacher at the end, even if she wasn't there at the beginning. I loved it!"
“This teacher training was incredible in many ways. During these three weeks, I learned a lot of things, both about my body, but also about my mind. Clotilde took me very far in connecting with myself. I clarified certain expectations, exceeded many limits, discovered abilities that were previously unsuspected, and, above all, I was amazed to become aware of the power of my motivation. All this was made possible by the guidance and support of Clotilde and Sandra. Thank you girls. “
“I found this TTC very complete both in physical practice and in theory. The teachers form a great balance. They brought me different and useful elements for my development. “
“It’s super weird because it lasted a month, and sometimes I’m wrong, it feels like it lasted so much longer, because it was super dense, except it went by so fast. I wish it had lasted longer.”
“What a training, as much seriousness and learning as madness and discoveries. It's clear that we surpass ourselves, but the energy was so benevolent that everything went through. Thank you Clo for guiding us like that. It's powerful. “
“What a brilliant idea to invite Sandra for the training, which allowed learning with a balance of knowledge and intense, but oh so rich, practices.
I learned a lot, I surpassed myself, I talked with my demons and forgotten discomforts. I met magical souls, I grew, and suddenly, thank you again.
You were attentive, and still are if we need you, and that is rare."
“I loved: the morning meditation, the sunrise, the intensity of the flows, the music, the coffee break, the handtsand, the silent walks, the cocoa ceremony, the acro-yoga, the satya, the sound baths and so on. It was an experience that I had to live. “
“I was lucky enough to do this TTC with super inspiring people. It did me good to realize that the teachers had also been in my shoes before me. It gave me enough confidence to teach.”
“I knew a lot about yoga because I already teach it, but wow! What an experience! So happy to have pushed to go for 3 weeks, this moment out of time made all the difference, it was incredible. “
“Thanks again for everything.
I bathe in gratitude every day of my life who followed this teacher training for having dared to do it and embark on this adventure."
“Teacher training with Clotilde is an experience that is lived, and the experience of a lifetime! It is more than a yoga training, it is an invitation to dare, to fully live your passions and to fulfill yourself. Make yourself a priority. Clotilde's sharing is sincere and transmitted with her guts. Her talent is great, inspiring and her way of teaching simply unique. “
“Clotilde's training is generous and intense. Already a graduate of a 200-hour training in India, I nevertheless had the impression of learning everything as she brings her own vision of movements, the body and sounds. She allowed an incredible connection between the students, we all left enriched with something very special.
I would love to relive this moment every year if possible!”
“It was intense physically, emotionally, mentally, on every level. As the atmosphere was very caring, it gave me the confidence to get out of my comfort zone and do challenging and creative things that I might not have dared to do if I hadn't been immersed in this bubble. “
“Best teacher training, it was even so much more!”
“A few words to describe the 200h: Enriching, caring, joyful, introspective, disciplined, challenging! We come out of it different (for the better!), a truly great experience, solid foundations for teaching (if that's what we want) and a great group! Thanks to Clo and her entire team, such inspiring people. “
“I am sometimes asked where I was trained.
I answer that I participated in a training with Clo. When I say that, people do not understand that it was much more than what they can imagine of a yoga training.”
“I didn't want to teach, I did this training for myself personally and I learned so much. The topics are so diverse and well presented! Thank you for everything. “
“I loved it. Clearly, when I listen to certain music again or watch a video, it brings back really pleasant memories.”
