An Integrated Education in Breath, Body & Presence

Zuna Yoga Est. 2009 | SCHOOL OF YOGA & MEDITATION

Soul Science

Where ancient wisdom meets modern understanding of the human system

Non-dogmatic and non-religious. We teach the tradition, the practices, and the evidence behind them, cultivating free thinkers, not followers.
Zuna

sanskrit

growth, success, prosperity,

Yoga has always been a science of human potential — a way to thrive.

Zuna Yoga® brings timeless yogic wisdom into dialogue with modern science to reveal what has yet to be discovered within us. What we offer is an embodied system for learning and living with purpose.

YOGA

sanskrit

To connect · Align · Integrate

Yoga is more than postures — it is a living system for self-development.

We’ll share a treasure trove of important techniques and essential philosophy, that together support a more beautiful way of living. Yoga is to be embodied not as technique, but as awareness in action.

Zuna — from the Sanskrit śuna (शुन): growth, success, prosperity, welfare. Monier-Williams, A Sanskrit-English Dictionary (1899), p. 1082

How We Thrive

YOGIC TRADITION

SOMATIC INTELLIGENCE

modern science

Zuna Yoga is an international yoga school integrating traditional yoga, breathwork, meditation, nervous system education, and yogic philosophy into a modern approach to yoga education.

Residential Teacher Training

Immersive and intensive — why it works

ONLINE

You can watch a concert on television. It’s not the same as being there. Online study is useful, and some programmes offer live sessions, but it’s still largely intellectual. There are no hands-on adjustments, and no chance to work with a range of bodies. You’re also learning alone, without a room of people meeting the same challenges, which teaches something on its own.

You study for a few hours and return to the life that formed the personal habits you likely came to examine. Without separation these behavioural patterns remain elusive, because you never leave the conditions producing them.

NIGHTS & WEEKENDS

Better than online in many ways. You’ll spend time with other people, you’ll get more personal attention and hands-on adjustments, and it costs less than a residential training. You get real-time corrections, and you’ll see how the same instruction lands differently in different bodies.

Where it falls short is depth. Learning arrives in fragments across months, with a working week in between each one, so each session is spent recovering ground rather than building on it. And it still doesn’t give you the separation from your life’s routines that deep self-inquiry usually needs.

IMMERSIVE RESIDENTIAL

Step out of your life entirely and live inside the practice. Twelve hours a day for weeks, with the same people, in a place where nothing asks anything else of you. Meals and housekeeping are handled, and you’re in a serene natural setting with time to reflect on life.

That’s the point. The habits you came to examine are produced by conditions you’re normally inside of, and you can’t see them from in there. Take the conditions away and the patterns surface on their own. Once you can see them, you can decide what to do about them. Nobody can do that part for you. No format can offer more.

THE ZUNA YOGA® EXPERIENCE

Hear directly from our students and from Everett Newell, the founder of Zuna Yoga®.

The Zuna Yoga® Method

INTELLIGENTLY DESIGNED TO BUILD CONFIDENCE AND AWAKEN INNER WISDOM

Through practice, lectures and workshops you’ll explore the traditions of Hatha and Tantra alongside the science behind them. You’ll work with posture, breathwork, meditation, and functional anatomy to support proper alignment, body mechanics and somatics.

You’ll refine your ability to stay comfortably stable in the face of challenge. That discipline creates the friction that builds fortitude and refines character. This is also the catalyst that transforms practice into a mirror, where our conditioning is revealed: the patterns, the ego, the behaviours we never chose. With practice we learn to clear these distortions for a more empowering relationship with life, and return home to our authentic self.

PHILOSOPHY

Translation into a modern context is what unlocks its greatest value. We’ll share this timeless wisdom in a relatable and digestible way that can bring powerful insight to living your best life.

BIO-MECHANICS

How a posture is performed changes what it offers you. You’ll learn to read the body to find the alignment and balance that achieve strength and stability with the least effort.

VINYASA KRAMA

to wisely arrange in order for the purpose of progress. Zuna Yoga mindfully builds every class with an arc:  preparation, apex, resolution. 

BREATHWORK

Our method of breathwork is the organising force between body and mind. It supports regulation and perception, brings stability to movement, and opens depth in meditation.

MEDITATION

Meditation offers powerful insight into our relationship with life. We’ll journey through a variety of techniques to help you find both depth and reward, starting with the essentials of a good seat and posture. Get that right and the rest follows.

How We Teach

A modern pedagogy for embodied intelligence

At Zuna Yoga®, learning is designed to be lived. Our methodology integrates experiential practice, reflection, and dialogue to support meaningful understanding and long-term integration.

CREATIVE CURRICULUM

PRACTICE, SCIENCE

You practise in the morning, then get the thinking behind what you just did, then the evidence underneath it. Same material, three angles, the same day. It’s why the ideas land rather than being asserted at you.

SMALL GROUPS

SIXTEEN participants maximum

You’ll be seen, corrected, supported, and known by name. The group becomes part of how you learn, as you watch fifteen other people meet the same difficulties in fifteen different bodies, with fifteen different minds.

TAUGHT, NOT DELIVERED

from the heart not A SCRIPT

Every group is different, so the training arc is built for the people in it. What you’re struggling with today changes how the programme gets taught tomorrow, but the curriculum is always delivered in full.

The impact of the Zuna Yoga® Method is best reflected in the lived experiences of our students. They include health professionals, researchers, experienced teachers, and dedicated practitioners seeking depth beyond mainstream yoga.

Why train with Zuna Yoga®?

What truly sets Zuna apart
KNOW MORE - BE MORE
SELF-KNOWLEDGE, NOT DOGMA

Zuna Yoga® is non-dogmatic, non-hierarchical, and non-religious. We do not ask you to believe or follow. We offer a structured path of inquiry grounded in direct experience.

Our approach empowers you to become your own authority. Through embodied practice and reflection, you learn to recognize your innate strength, intelligence, and creative capacity.

Our yoga is a path of self-realization. Learning to trust your inner compass and act from awareness rather than conditioning is the foundation of empowered leadership. 

GET STRONG · STAY SENSITIVE
Somatic Integration & Conscious Breath

At Zuna Yoga®, the body is not something to perfect, but to refine. The cultivation of body awareness, combined with specific conscious breathing techniques, creates a unique somatic approach that supports the reorganization of neuromuscular patterns and the development of whole-body coordination.

Movement becomes guided by sensation and breath; effort softens, and strength arises through greater precision and efficiency. As sensitivity deepens, it becomes a source of stability and adaptability, supporting a more intelligent way of moving and living.

LEAD WITH CONFIDENCE
ONE METHOD, DEEPLY INTEGRATED

Rather than teaching fragmented blocks of styles, Zuna Yoga® offers a coherent, integrated method.

By learning how and why practices work, you gain the capacity to adapt intelligently to different bodies, contexts, and needs. Teaching emerges from integration, not imitation.

Graduates leave grounded in their own authentic voice, able to guide others with confidence across contexts, levels of experience, and styles such as Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, Power Yoga and Meditation.

SOUL SCIENCE
SUPERFOOD FOR MIND BODY & SOUL

Most modern yoga stops at calming the mind and relieving stress. At Zuna Yoga®, we see this as only the beginning.

Rooted in the wisdom of Tantra and Hatha Yoga, and informed by contemporary understanding of human development, our method explores yoga as a system of self-mastery. We engage the full spectrum of yogic tools — asana, pranayama, bandha, mudra, mantra, meditation, and inquiry — not merely for wellness, but to awaken deeper self-knowledge.

This is Soul Science: where ancient insight and modern understanding converge to support clarity, purpose and the capacity to live freely and fully.

BALI - AN Illuminating Experience

More than a setting, our learning environment is shaped by local culture, close connection to nature, and a commitment to sustainable living.

The serenity and beauty of places like Saridevi are part of why Bali is one of the world’s top destinations for yoga teacher training. Our home there is a family-run sanctuary in the village of Wongaya Gede, surrounded by rice terraces, jungle, and the sacred presence of Mount Batukaru — and Zuna Yoga is its exclusive training school.

The village is also home to Pura Luhur Batukaru, one of the six holiest temples in Bali and guardian of the island’s western direction. Named for Dewi Sri, the Balinese goddess of rice and fertility, Saridevi is eco-conscious and locally sourced, built around simplicity and presence. It’s a place where daily practice, reflection, and conscious living become simply how you live.
