Day 1: Arrival and Introduction
The TMT Advanced involves a total of 64 hours of intense studies and practice with group activities.
- The schedule for Day 1 (21 January), is the following:
19:00 Group welcome dinner in Tallinn, Estonia
22:00 ConclusionAs a group we will gather together for a delicious and healthy meal at a cozy restaurant in the heart of Tallinn. This is a perfect opportunity to get to know each other before the teaching days begin.
Following dinner, you will be briefed about the course schedule and curriculum and given instructions on how to best prepare for the first teaching day.
We ask that you plan your flights accordingly so that you can attend the welcome dinner. This is an important element of cultivating the group energy. Also, please do arrive to the restaurant on time.
Location of the restaurant will be shared with registered participants a few days prior to the course start date.

Days 2 - 7: Studies and Practice
Days 2 to 7 (22 – 27 January): The teachings and practices are held for approximately nine hours daily, plus breaks. In terms of rhythm, more intense sessions follow more relaxed sessions, so that participants do not need to sustain their energy maximally and have intervals to revitalize.
08:00 Morning Hatha Yoga for purification and revitalisation
09:30 Morning teaching and practice session
13:30 Lunch break (approximate time)
15:00 Afternoon teaching and practice session
20:00 Conclusion of the day / Occasional satsang / Sauna -
Day 8: Conclusions and Departure
Day 8 (28 January): On the final day we will have a beautiful devotional Shivaratri Ritual, followed by the certification ceremony and conclusion of the course by 14:00.
Please do not plan your flight out of Tallinn before 18:00 of the same day. Moreover, previous experience has shown that best would be to stay for at least one extra day (preferably two) to assimilate the retreat effects and benefits before returning home to your regular daily life.
