Independent Modules
Our trainings are designed to adapt to your availability. Thanks to a system of independent modules, you can start at any time of the year and build your learning path at your own pace.
Single block or spread out
Each week introduces a new module, allowing for steady and flexible progression. Trainings are delivered in blocks of 2 to 6 modules, depending on the theme, and can be followed continuously or over multiple sessions.
On-site at the Ashram
You can attend all of our trainings directly at the Ashram, in full immersion.
We welcome a maximum of 12 participants per training, with no minimum required. This means the teaching may also be offered as a one-on-one session, giving you the opportunity for fully personalized guidance.
Online, direct streaming
All our trainings are also available live and remotely through the Jitsi application.
You participate under the same conditions as those attending on-site.
Meet the Team
A heart-led team of dedicated teachers
At the heart of Yogaji Academy is a passionate team of trainers who embody a grounded, transformative and accessible approach to yoga. We are more than instructors — we are guides on the path, united by the desire to share not just technique, but a whole way of being: connected to oneself, others, and nature.
Leading the team is Julie Giacomini, founder of Yogaji Academy and of the French Federation of Children’s Yoga. A trainer and speaker for over 15 years, Julie has supported hundreds of yoga teachers across Europe, combining rigorous teaching with a deep sensitivity to the living world.
Surrounding her is a multidisciplinary team, united by a shared philosophy: to teach with humility and joy while staying true to the roots of yoga. Each trainer brings their own colour and story, contributing to an authentic and supportive learning environment.
Our trainings, retreats and workshops offer more than just knowledge — they’re deep spaces of inner exploration and return to what matters most. Often held in our ashram in Ardèche, these immersive experiences allow each teaching to become a true invitation to live yoga fully, between ancient stones and mountain air.
