Hatha, Transformational, Vinyasa Flow Yoga 200hr Courses in Cork and Galway
Our 200-hour teacher training courses run over 11 weekends from September to June or from January to December.
Within these course students cover a variety of elements – ranging from asana, pranayama and
mantra, to the philosophy, theory and history of yoga to anatomy and physiology.
Students undergo both professional and personal development and will also cover
teaching skills and business principles.
Our courses all cover Hatha, the amazing Transformational yoga as well as Restorative and Vinyasa Flow styles,without the limitations of being tied to any particular school or style of yoga or religious concept.
By training with Golden Glow Yoga College, you will have the advantage of being part of a small
group to best allow you to gradually build your confidence and establish your own style and rhythm using methodology from both classic and contemporary style.The Transformational Yoga system is an amazing awakening and focuses in particular on creating an awareness of the four bodies and five beings of the physical, panic, mental, psychic and the spiritual. Transformational Yoga aims to awaken all five bodies and the seven chakra points in order to experience a continuous state of physical health and stamina, emotional balance, higher mental guidance, unconditional love, faith and spiritual bliss consciousness.
Transformational Yoga is an integral yoga system that goes far beyond just physical exercise. While
offering a complete approach to well-being, it takes into account physical, emotional, mental and
spiritual aspects of health. It functions on a deeper level to stimulate kundalini energy to move
through the chakras, purifying and awakening the awareness.

Sri Radha Sharon has dedicated her later life to the wide study and awareness of the various Hatha schools and the fun and challenge of vinyasa flow. Her enthusiasm enhances the teaching mix beautifully, making for the most enjoyable of yoga courses all with the discipline of loving kindness. Golden Glow Yoga College was founded by Sri Radha Sharon and is accredited as a Yoga Alliance International Teaching School. Sri Radha Sharon is a Senior YAI Yoga and Meditation Master, a member of The British Wheel of Yoga, an Ambassador for SriMa Transformational Yoga and Director of SriMa Ireland. Sri Radha qualified in 2006 as a 200hr Instructor with Yoga Alliance studying with Marie Quail (300hrs) and went on later to study directly with the Founder and President of Yoga Alliance International, Swami Vidyanand in India. Further studies in India certified Sri Radha with an additional 200hr Transformational Yoga Instructor Certificate, a Senior Instructor 500hr Certificate and later the Grand Master Yoga Therapy Certificate. Golden Glow Yoga College Courses are inspired by Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, Swami Vidyanand and also the timeless teachings of Shri Krishnamacharya, an amazing healer and yoga teacher who was the inspiration behind many modern Hatha schools (Ashtanga, Iyengar, Vinyasa, Viniyoga). Our primary influences are Patanjali the Great Sage of Yoga as well as the awareness of Ayurveda as based on the Samkhya cosmology. Golden Glow Yoga College courses are varied, interesting and challenging. History of GGYC Cork Having taught in Cork from 2004 Sri Radha opened her first popularlittel Cottage studio in Carrigaline, growing for a number of years from 2010 - 2015 winning the Best Yoga Studio in Cork award from the Lurxury Travel Guide. We later moved our main office and Private Practice Rooms to Cork City in Plunkett Chambers Business Centre, Oliver Plunkett Street and many of you would have met us there. Our winter Teacher training Courses 2017/18 will continue to take place in Cork but this year at the Oriel House Hotel Ballincollig Cork for 2017/18. We graduated our students from the Roches Town Park Hotel in Cork and were absolutely delighted with the years work. The Intensive Course in Cork was held at the Wellness Centre Youghal many thanks to our dear friend Maria Kirby. A joy to spend the month of July in the sunny South East! Galway We have recently opened our new little practice space for Teachers Workshop style classes and private tuition in The Wellness Business Centre, Main Street Spiddal Co Galway as Sri Radha and Peter moved to The Wild Atlantic Way! Spiddal is fantastic and we are absolutely delighted with it ! All Teacher Training weekends are held in Galway at The Salthill Hotel. Our new studio in Spiddal Galway has space for 6 students on mats and is primarily for small classes for teachers in training and private tuition and therapy sessions.Our main office has now transferred from Cork to Spiddal in Galway. |

Come and join us!
"I cannot believe the amount I have learned this past few months. From learning about the fascinating world of Hatha yoga and practical business skills to learning about life and most interestingly what I have learned about myself. Sharon is an amazing teacher. Caring and passionate and always shares a giggle. I honestly have surprised myself with the knowledge I have retained all thanks to Sharon at Golden Glow and I move forward with confidence knowing that Sharon is only a call away to help with any questions I may encounter! Beautiful course with some very beautiful people." Maggi Morley 2016
"... It changed my life... " Read what some other Trainee Teachers have had to say about their courses...
"... Sri Radha has made the course so personal and yet is never pushy or invasive - she is a true yogi! Radha gently guides you through the course helping you find strength and grace in your yoga both on and off the mat. The year has helped me considerably deepen my practice and given me a well rounded knowledge of all of the yoga realms. It really has been such a gift to have been on this learning journey with Sri Radha and my fellow yogis. I have been truly inspired by Sri Radha and will sincerely miss our treasured yoga weekends when the course ends in another month! " Sarah Kate McHaugh 2016
"I started practicing when i was 8 years old and wanted to learn everything i could so I was put on the advanced programs. I practice just about every day and its been a huge influence for me. Everyone loves the energy and focus of the weekends. Its a way of life." William Magnier 2014
William Magnier is running Beginners and improvers Classes Cork. He also has a YoungYogaEdge program.

I feel I have already achieved great personal growth, and developed on many levels, and am loving the opportunity to learn and explore within such a supportive environment." Hazel Moon 2015
" It is said that the teacher appears when the student is ready. This was indeed the case with me when I found Sri Radha Sharon and Golden Glow Yoga College. In 2013/2014, I studied the 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training Course at Golden Glow Yoga College with Sri Radha.
Sri Radha is a wonderful, insightful and warm teacher whose authentic practice is hugely inspiring and who teaches from the heart, while her knowledge of yoga history, philosophy and sutra is vast and deep.
It was a privilege to study under Sri Radha and also to meet all the other students on the course." Fintan Mackey 2014

Sri Radha really gives you wings, so that you can experiment and develop your own unique yogic vibe, without feeling restricted by one lineage or another...It really is a wonderful course and I am looking forward to graduating.

Our courses are built upon and improved every year and are comprehensive and wide in their field. They are designed to create a space of personal development and joyousness around hard work and practice. The work we cover in the first term before the Xmas holidays is very much focused on the Physical Body however we are very much aware that the Emotional Pranic Body, the Mental Body and the Psychic Body of the Wisdom Mind are there always for us as Humans Being and so with a sense our our Spiritual Being, on this course we allow ourselves time to consider these concepts and honour the work of great Masters and Sages as we learn our basics and encourage our growth.
Examinations for these courses are kept to a minimum however we do have an assessment weekend prior to graduation. We only have small numbers on courses and do so in particular so to be able to keep close contact with the inquiring minds of student teachers along their path. Progress is divided into both personal and professional development and awareness is gauged by continual assessment and encouragement.
There is a requirement for each student to submit a 3000 word essay of an agreed yoga topic of their choice at the end of the course prior to graduation. This gives the student teacher an opportunity to study in depth, a yogic concept that interests them in particular. However it is not a course of show up and get your cert. It is a requirement that all new teachers can perform, practice and teach a variety of Asana, Pranayama and meditation techniques.
Our task at Golden Glow Yoga College is to help you learn how. : )
