Teaching at Surya
Surya Yoga Camp has run as a non profit event since 2009. All teachers offer their classes in exchange for a festival ticket and being part of this self generated celebration of yoga and community.
Ideally, we are open to teachers who have at least 5 years of teaching experience. We ask all teachers to have their own insurance, and if working with children to have an up to date DBS certificate.
Usually each yoga teacher would teach 2 classes over the 4 day camp. If you wish to bring an additional adult / children with you, we would ask you to teach an extra class. This arrangement allows you to bring someone who is able to supervise your children when you are teaching. Please only bring your own children under this offer.
