The philosophy at Gannon Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga (GAVY) is simple. Based o­n the idea of GAVY founder, Michael Gannon, ‘Yoga can be practiced by EVERYBODY. Therefore we must learn to teach it to ANYBODY!’

The yoga systems that are the most effective today, must
also be the most accessible. There is a shortage of sufficiently trained teachers to share traditional yoga systems in a way that makes it available to people at every level. GAVY Teacher
Apprenticeships solve this problem. 

The GAVY system of teaching yoga is based o­n the proven yoga traditions from
India. The way that Michael learned it from 10 years of visits to India, training with his
Gurus. BUT, we take it an important step further, making these practices palatable for the western mind. And it is through this system that GAVY has graduated over
150 teachers from 30 countries to teach yoga. Teach yoga to ANYBODY. 

Teach yoga to EVERYBODY.

GAVY has developed a series of programs to offer serious practitioners, aspiring
teachers and current teachers a method to explode their practice potential,
cultivate fresh teaching skills and inspire real life transformations.

Kovalam Beach
Kerala, South India

February 7-19, 2010

Michael is greatly honored to have been invited by his long time teacher, Lino Miele, to teach 2 weeks at his Ashtanga Yoga Shala in Kovalam Beach, in Kerala South India.Yoga practitioners have been traveling from around the world for 10 years to practice with Linoji during the months of December and January each year. Michael will follow Lino's annual 8 weeks by teaching an additional 2 weeks. 

Schedule :

India for Beginners

Kovalam Beach is what Michael calls 'India for Beginners'. If you have been nervous about coming to India, this is the place to dip your toes. After an easy 30 minute taxi ride from the airport to the beach. There are no cars, no buses, no rickshaws. This means no screaming sounds of constant traffic and carbon monoxide. Whereever you choose to stay in the village will be a 5 minute walk from your hotel to the yoga shala, to the resaurants/cafes and the beach. Very laid back for India.

Ashtanga Americas Mayan Jungle Yoga Retreat & Jungle Yogi Village

It is said that if you dig a hole in Mexico, you will eventually come out in India. This connection between two ancient and mystic civilizations provide the foundation for the creation of the Ashtanga Americas MAYAN JUNGLE YOGA RETREAT & JUNGLE YOGI VILLAGE Development. Michael Gannon, the founder of this project, has acquired 30 hectares (300,000 square meters, for phase o­ne) of virgin land in the Mayan Jungle, 15 km from Playa del Carmen, Mexico (www.playa.info). Three to five hectares are currently dedicated to the Ashtanga Americas Jungle Yoga Retreat and the remaining land is being subdivided and offered to fellow yogis and others o­n a similar path in portions of o­ne to five hectare lots. This development will create the first ever Yogi Village in the western world.
