This is more than a Yoga Teacher Training.

An immersive journey of self-discovery, transformation and connection — deepening your practice, awakening your intuition and discovering how to live and teach Yoga from a place of authenticity and embodied experience. 🌿

Rooted in traditional Indian Yoga and the Transformational Yoga lineage, we explore asana, pranayama, meditation, mantra, philosophy, subtle energy, Ayurveda and more — both on and beyond the mat.

Your lead teacher, Joanne Merlini (Jitendra Mayee), Grand Master of Transformational Yoga & Meditation and founder of Transform to Bliss, has spent over a decade sharing and teaching Yoga, having trained extensively in India and guided students through classes, retreats and teacher trainings across Europe.

Held in the natural beauty of the Algarve, near Lagos, this is an opportunity to step away from everyday life, reconnect with yourself and immerse deeply in the practice.

🤍 Transformational Yoga 200-hr Teacher Training
1-19 May 2027
Algarve, Portugal

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I really want to offer through our next 200hr training.

And the answer keeps coming back to the same thing…
An experience where you have the space to step away from your everyday life, immerse yourself in yoga & really connect to yourself & the essence of Yoga,
'योगश्चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः
Yogaś citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ
“Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind"
Yoga Sūtra 1.2.

Yes, you’ll learn how to teach.

But you’ll also explore meditation, pranayama, mantra, chakras, subtle energy, Ayurveda, philosophy, nature & the elements, ceremony, self-enquiry and so much more.

And perhaps most importantly, you’ll be invited to discover your own inner teacher.

1–19 May 2027 | Algarve, Portugal | 8 places

If you've feel the call, send a message & we can see if our training is the right one for you.
More info in the bio.

Much love
Joanne 🤍 🙏

🌕 PISCES FULL MOON ECLIPSE ♓️
28 August 2026
4° of watery Pisces

Opening up to this eclipse portal & to the waters.

We’re reaching the closing chapter of a 2-year eclipse portal along the Virgo–Pisces axis, a cycle that began in 2024 and continues through early 2027.

This eclipse carries the energy of endings and beginnings — one door closing, another opening. ✨

Pisces is the archetype of the Dreamer, Mystic and Seer.
It speaks through the waters — the oceans, the tides, our emotions, intuition, dreams & the unseen.

This Full Moon invites us to soften, surrender & listen more deeply to what our inner world is telling us.

Take a moment this evening or tomorrow to sit with these prompts & see what's waiting to be revealed;

🌊 What are your emotions trying to reveal?
🌊 What dream have you postponed?
🌊 What have you outgrown but are still holding onto?
🌊 Where are you choosing safety over your soul’s calling?

The Virgo–Pisces axis asks us to balance duty with dreams, reality with intuition, structure with surrender.

Something may be ending because you have already outgrown it.

And something new may be waiting for you on the other side.

You don’t have to have all the answers.

Sometimes, the Mystic simply trusts the tide ✨️

Release what is no longer yours to carry.
Make peace with what was.
And allow the next chapter to reveal itself.

There's still soace if you'd like to join us in ceremony to honour this portal time. Link in the bio.

Much love & go easy on yourself in the coming days, it may be an emotional rollercoaster
Joanne 🤍🌙

🌕 Full Moon Ceremony

Gather beneath the Pisces Full Moon and Partial Lunar Eclipse in sacred circle, where intuition deepens, dreams awaken and your soul is gently invited home
FRIDAY 28th AUGUST
19-21:45
30-35 Euro

This Full Moon Circle is an invitation to return to yourself. To gather in community, to be witnessed and to witness, and to remember the ancient rhythm of coming together in presence and heart.

Pisces is the dreamer, the mystic and the healer.
As the veil between the seen and unseen feels especially thin, this is a powerful time to honour your dreams, trust your intuition and release what no longer serves you & release to the healing waters.

With the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Pisces, this Full Moon invites us to find balance between practicality and intuition, logic and emotion, structure & surrender.

Together, we will breathe, move, meditate and connect through ritual, reflection and gentle sharing.
Like water, we'll explore what it means to soften rather than force, to flow rather than control, and to trust the wisdom already living within.

To release.
To reconnect.
To remember.

You are welcome exactly as you are.

What to Expect

A held Full Moon Circle

Water element ritual & intention setting

Sacral connection & pranayama to release restrictions

Flowing movement

Guided meditation to connect beyond the veil

Full Moon reflection & journaling

Oracle card guidance

Cacao & blue Lotus ritual to take us deeper

Sacred space for gentle sharing

Deep relaxation & reiki

Held by Joanne, guardian of Transform to Bliss.
Daughter of the Moon since childhood
Astrology trained & Natal chart reader.

Gather beneath the Pisces Full Moon and Partial Lunar Eclipse, where intuition deepens, dreams awaken and your soul is gently invited home.

Spaces l imited to create an intimate and deeply held experience.
Message to reserve

Silence

3 days in the mountains
Received, giving, observing, being

In a busy world, where our mind reflects the external, taking this precious gift is a gift I'd recommend to all.

✨ Sometimes life asks us to step away before it invites us back.

Five years ago, my focus shifted from the online world to creating a yoga and wellbeing community here in the Algarve. Looking back, I realise I wasn't leaving one community behind—I was simply nurturing another.

This summer I turned 50, flew from a 500-metre cliff over Madeira & something quietly shifted inside.

The experience reminded me that some of life's greatest transformations begin the moment we let go of what feels familiar.

I've shared the whole story on my blog, along with why I'm returning to writing again and what's next for Transform to Bliss.

I'd love for you to read it.
