Most trainings teach you a practice.
This one gives you a structure to keep using.
You will learn asana, pranayama, anatomy, philosophy and how to hold a room — all of it, properly, to Yoga Alliance standard. But the reason people come here from across the world is the other thing: a methodology, carried in the Andes for centuries, for understanding how a life unfolds in time. Three worlds. Where you came from. What you are building. What you pass on. It is a psychology as much as a cosmology, and once you have it, you use it for the rest of your life — on yourself first, and then on the people you teach.

THE ANDEAN COSMOVISION
Three worlds, held together by the Chakana
The Chakana — the Andean cross — is a bridge.
Its stepped form maps the three worlds onto each other, & every part of our curriculum is sequenced through it.

In yoga: samskāra — the imprints that quietly steer what we do next.

HOW WE TEACH
We give you an experience.
Then we sit with you while you work out what it meant.
Every module builds on the last. You will explore color mixing, brush control, soft blending, simple florals, and gentle landscapes — one confident step at a time.
So we do not hand you a philosophy and check whether you memorised it.
You are given something to do — spend a day alone on the mountain, go back to a place that marked you, make the offering. Then you come back, and we go through it together: what happened, where you resisted, what changed, what it is showing you, and how it becomes part of how you live.
That loop — experience, practice, reflection, integration — runs through everything we offer.
The Steps We Take Together
Experience → Practice → Reflection → Integration → Next
WHAT's woven in this container
The Andean pillars
In the Andean tradition, Yachay, Munay and Llankay are the three centres of being — located at the head, the heart and the belly. Ayni is the principle that holds all three in relation. Together they answer: what do you know, what do you love, what do you do, and what do you give back.
Yachay
Means: To know. Knowledge that came through experience.
Yachay is the centre at the crown, and its definition is precise and demanding: it is knowledge gained through personal action and direct experience. Information you read is not yachay. Information you have lived is.
This distinction is the whole reason our teaching method is built the way it is. We do not hand a student a philosophy and test whether they memorised it. We give them an experience, let them practise it, and then sit with them while they work out what it meant. What they leave with is theirs.
In our work: Yachay is why every module ends in practice, and why the homework in our programs is lived rather than written.
Its counterpart in yoga: Svādhyāya — self-study, the fourth niyama. And the long tradition of anubhava, direct realisation, valued above scriptural knowledge.
Means: To love. To want, with the heart.
Munay is the centre at the chest. Not sentiment — Quechua does not separate loving something from willing it. To have munay for a thing is to love it and to move toward it in the same gesture. This is what makes the Andean tradition practical rather than devotional. Love here is not a feeling you wait for. It is a direction you take.
In our work: Munay is the second month of the Three Worlds program, where a person stops analysing their life and starts building something. It is also the standard we hold teachers to: teach what you actually love, not what sells.
Its counterpart in yoga: Bhakti — the path of devotion. And Ishvara pranidhana, the surrender of the fruits of action to something larger than the self.
Munay
Llankay
Means: To work. To bring into form.
Llankay is the centre in the belly, below the navel — the capacity to manifest. In the Andes this is not ambition. It is the plain fact that a thought which never becomes an action was never really a thought.
Llankay is also why service is not optional in this tradition. Knowledge that produces nothing and love that builds nothing are both incomplete.
In our work: Llankay is the third month of the Three Worlds program — the personal practice a student sustains alone, and the service they begin offering. It is also the school’s community projects: water, the Quechua school, adobe building. Work you can point at.
Its counterpart in yoga: sādhana — sustained practice. And seva, service given without accounting.
AYNI
Today for you, tomorrow for me
Ayni is the Andean law of reciprocity, and it is not a virtue here — it is how things work. What is given returns. What is taken without return creates imbalance, and imbalance is understood as the root of most trouble, in a body or in a village.
These teachings come from the Quechua communities of this valley. So the communities are inside the school’s economics, not on a separate page asking for donations.
Established So Far:
water projects, a Quechua-language school, and eco-building with adobe using methods the community already knows better than we do. When you train here, part of what you pay does this. It is not an add-on. It is Ayni.
