NAMASKAR

An Advanced Yoga Immersion in BaliOctober 24-31, 2026

Eight days in Bali to refine your practice, sharpen your teaching, and reckon with the work that doesn’t end. There is a teacher in you that hasn’t yet been revealed, and only continued study will draw them out. This training is for the practitioner who is ready to take on the tapas of that study: to light the sacrificial flame, to endure the discipline, and to produce hard-earned results. And, possibly, to have fun while doing it.

Built for teachers, open to serious practitioners.

Bali | October 24-31, 2026

An eight-day immersion for yoga teachers and dedicated practitioners seeking renewed inspiration, refined teaching skills, and a deeper relationship with practice.

Led by Dan Ward and Ava Moreno, NAMASKAR combines rigorous study, daily practice, philosophy, self-inquiry, and teaching methodology in an immersive environment designed to support growth beyond the limitations of a traditional training.

Whether you’re a teacher finding your voice, an experienced instructor seeking fresh perspective, or a committed practitioner ready to deepen your understanding, this immersion offers the space, structure, and guidance to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Dan Ward & Ava Moreno

Dan Ward

Dan Ward has been practicing yoga since 1990 and leading teacher trainings since 2013. His teaching is rooted in Power Yoga and the YogaWorks tradition, Ashtanga’s flow married to Iyengar’s alignment, and is shaped by his teachers Gabriel Halpern, Bryan Kest, Maty Ezraty, Annie Carpenter, Leslie Kazadi, and Jerome Mercier.

Based in Los Angeles, he is the founder of Dan Ward Yoga School, a Yoga Alliance–registered 200-hour program. His approach emphasizes self-discovery — teaching from authenticity rather than mimicry.

Dan teaches for the practitioner who recognizes that the study of yoga never ends. His advanced trainings are built for those ready to take on the tapas of that study: to light the sacrificial flame, endure the discipline, and produce hard-earned results.
