RAINBOW FAMILY & COMMUNITY YOGA - 280 HOUR SPECIALIZATION TEACHER TRAINING
AUGUST 1 - 24, 2013      Location: Ebbio - TUSCANY, ITALY


"I recommend this course to all the people that want to learn to have fun. It is the most creative and amazing yoga course I have ever done".

This 280 Hr residential Teacher Training will be held at Ebbio, a beautiful 14th century Tuscan farmhouse and yoga retreat center located in the breathtaking countryside of Tuscany, Italy. Ebbio is a magical place surrounded by an evergreen forest, nestled in the heart of an old volcano that was sacred to the Etruscans. It is also a working organic farm and vineyard, as well as a sanctuary for many animals, including beautiful horses, donkeys, geese and chickens. Ebbio has been described by our past graduates as "stunning" and "a truly magical place."

"It was an adventure…an exploration…and it opened new perspectives for me. I got in touch with myself more deeply than I could imagine".


Nurture yourself with delicious, mostly organic and local vegetarian food, relax and restore in the rustic yet refined accommodations , all while learning to be an expert in Family and Community Yoga… something that only Rainbow Kids Yoga can offer.

From partnership and pre conception to forming a family and strengthening a community, be ready to be inspired and inspire the world with this new Yoga!

"The course is brilliant for all teachers of different subjects, for parents, for yoga teachers. You will laugh, cry, sweat and chat with people from all over the world and make friends with them".




After successful completion of the teacher training requirements, you will be certified to teach all of the following:

  • Partner Yoga
  • Fertility Yoga
  • Prenatal Yoga
  • Postnatal Yoga
  • Baby Yoga
  • Yoga for Kids
  • Yoga for Teens
  • Wise Women Yoga - Nurturing and honoring the natural cycles of a woman's body
  • Family Yoga - Intergenerational yoga for children, parents and even grandparents to do together
  • Community Yoga - Interactive fun and engaging yoga done as a group practice

"I would first recommend this training to all my friends who are into yoga and a little bit too serious about it. I would also recommend the training to all the persons in my life who need to bring back joy and positive thinking into their life."



The 280-hour Rainbow Family & Community Yoga Teacher Training is a fun, enriching and intensive Yoga experience. We will study and practice for about 10 hours per day, but there will still be some free time to relax and enjoy in Ebbio's pool and take in the majestic scenery that surrounds you! Plus - there will be one full day off each week, to explore the Tuscan countryside (Siena is only 15 mins away, for example), do other fun activities and field trips or just relax and enjoy the Ebbio grounds.

"It is a safe and supportive environment, where a community learns together how to live yoga philosophy… I gained an extra mile on my own journey by being in this course".

The Rainbow Family Yoga 280hr Teacher Training is intensive and requires full participation. You don't have to be a yoga teacher to take the course, but you must have a regular yoga practice.

In a competitive world, where there are hundreds and sometimes thousands of yoga teachers in every city, we want to offer you the best start. We believe that to be a successful yoga teacher you need to have passion and knowledge, but also a specialization.



This training is a wonderful way to start your yoga career - if it’s your first yoga teacher training. Or it can be a way to specialize - if you are already a yoga teacher. We will also attempt to open your mind and heart, and to empower you to become part of this constant evolution of yoga. This course is open for anyone who is passionate about life.

We are the present of yoga, but you are the future!
