Yoga Teacher Training
Are you ready to take your practice to the next level? Our Yoga Alliance registered 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training program will facilitate a deepening of your knowledge and personal practice, and, if you choose to continue to Module 2, thoroughly prepare you for the role of Yoga Instructor.
When I first started planning our teacher training program in 2021, I had a concept to offer it in two parts--Part 1 for those students who want to deepen their knowledge and personal practice and Part 2 as a continuation for those who want to teach. With a program like this, I feel that the financial and time commitments are not quite as daunting, and people can choose when and if to complete the program with the second module. I was advised by several mentors to try it as a more traditional program first. We ran it as a full 200-program for several years. This year, I felt called to offer it as the 2-part program I originally planned.
The general scope of the curriculum as well as the upcoming schedules and pricing are below. For more information, see our FAQ page.
