Devlin

Devlin is passionate about the link between art and heart and worked for many years bringing performing arts and mindfulness education to under-served communities in New York City. She is a strong believer in the power of meditation for liberating ourselves from unconscious conditioned patterns. Once these no longer hold us back, we can realize the true nature of our hearts and act with kindness, compassion, and ease for the good of all beings and the planet. Devlin has been teaching since 2006 and contributes her background in pedagogy and her experience with children, special needs, and at-risk populations. After spending two years apprenticing with a reiki master, tantrika, and energy healer, she decided to dive fully into spiritual teachings. In 2016 she began focusing exclusively on teaching hatha yoga, meditation, and sacred feminine arts internationally. She is a co-owner of Samyama, currently based in Bali, and thrilled to be continuing to share the gift of meditation through this Meditation & Yoga Teacher Training Course all across the world.

What makes this TTC special?

Outstanding teachers
Our teachers are dedicated and accomplished yogis/yoginis. They all have a solid background in yoga and meditation, and a regular personal practice. They will share their diverse gifts and skills with you from an authentic and heart-centered place of service.
A venue created by practitioners for practitioners
Our beautiful venue, Samyama Mindfulness Meditation Center, was born out of a desire for authenticity and a love of non-dual teachings. Meditation and inner work were the seeds. Love and a dedication to service helped to water this dream. Our facilities have been purposefully designed to support deep transformation, healing and integration. Our unique location is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by jungle and rice fields in tropical paradise. We are only a 5 minute drive to town but you will feel far away from the hustle and bustle.
Amazing healthy meals
Samyama Eatery is all about wholesome, fresh, colorful, plant-based food made from scratch right here in our compassionate kitchen. It is also delicious! We offer predominantly organic, locally sourced food. We strive to create a kitchen with zero food waste. We care deeply about the planet and all life forms on it, including you!
Carefree, all inclusive packages
From the moment you step off the plane in Bali, our friendly and trustworthy drivers will be there to greet you and transport you to Samyama. You will feel supported with a plant-based diet, designed especially for this journey. Samyama’s massage therapist, steam sauna, ice bath and other Healing Center perks are available when you need some extra care. The staff and teachers take pride in the warm family vibe we create, where everyone feels well taken care of.
The Yoga capital of the world
Ubud, Bali has become one of the top destinations for yoga and spirituality. The local Balinese Hindu’s live their practice through a strong belief in karma and acts of devotion – offering to the gods on a daily basis. Ubud translates into ‘medicine’ and has always been a holy center for healing and purifying. It is hard not to feel the strong, yet nourishing energy – like a warm embrace – from mama Bali.
One-on-one attention
Everyone has their own unique journey with yoga and meditation. It’s not a one-size-fits-all kind of practice. We value the importance of one-on-one attention by keeping our group small, offering each student a teacher/mentor they can go to with questions, and creating a buddy system. Our curriculum is designed in accordance with Yoga Alliance standards. Upon completion of the course, you will receive accreditation as an RYS 300 hour teacher.

What to Expect

Meditation initiations
Each week you will be guided into the depths of different and potent meditation techniques by the empowered teachers. Daily practice of each technique will help you discover which form of meditation works best for you, and give you the ability to guide your future students. You will experience two profound retreats during this course.
  • A six-day meditation retreat based on non-dual practices and the revelation of the spiritual heart. This retreat is practiced in noble silence.
  • A five-day kundalini yoga and meditation retreat based on non-dual Kashmiri Shaivism and classical tantra teachings.
Styles of yoga
You will be trained in classical poses of hatha yoga obtaining a thorough understanding of their physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual effects. Samyama MYTTC focuses primarily on tantric hatha yoga addressing the subtle energetic and spiritual effects of our practice. In addition, we offer an introduction to vinyasa, kundalini and restorative practices to round out your experience. Please note that we place more significance on the union of mind-body-spirit than we do on physical strength, and flexibility. If you are looking for a strict alignment-based approach, we may not be the right school for you.
Anatomy and physiology
This advanced course explores the subtle anatomy of the body through in-depth exploration of the chakra and Nadi system. The expert teachers will create experiential immersions into subtle anatomy, physiology – the nervous system from a trauma-informed perspective, and Ayurveda – the sister science of yoga. We want you to explore yoga`s effects and functioning in our being from an experiential perspective.
Kriya techniques
We will teach and practice together selected techniques from the shat karma kriya system. This will assist our bodies in the purification processes that occur during intensive yoga and meditation practice. These techniques are gems that you will want to share with your students.
Teaching and professional skills
We love sharing our passion for this path. We want you to develop all of the required teaching skills; from making adjustments/corrections, to giving effective discourses to tuning into the needs of the individual and the group. Since many of the participants in this course are already teaching yoga, we have ample opportunities to learn from each other through practicum hours and constructive feedback. We will also support you in creating an ethical yoga business that brings abundance into your life and serves your community in the best possible way.
Philosophy and history
Besides the core texts of yoga philosophy such as the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and the Bhagavad Gita, we will introduce tantric texts such as the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, teachings from Advaita Vedanta, Kashmiri Shaivism, Classical tantra and more. There are so many beautiful and accessible texts that inform and inspire our meditation practice.
Horizontal elements
  • Sharing circles: We will have weekly sharing circles to support the group during this intensive journey.
  • Buddy system: Traveling solo? No worries. You’ll have a built in friend for support and sharing.
  • Mentoring system: Each participant will be assigned a teacher they can go to with questions. Your assigned teacher/mentor will schedule a one-on-one meeting for any personal issues that you would rather address in private.
  • Evening activities (optional): some fun surprises to blow off some steam, sometimes literally.

We seek a balance of practice, theory and teaching formation in our program. Our Meditation & Yoga Teacher Training Course aims to help you build a solid self-practice, give you a strong understanding of the metaphysics of yoga/meditation and provide you with the skills to deliver these teachings.
