Do What You Love & Be The Change!

Do you aspire to deepen your yoga practice, begin teaching yoga or further advance your yoga teaching career? Invest in our advanced studies & 200-hour teacher training program to transform your passion for yoga into something greater. Our program will not only teach you how to be an instructor of yoga, it will help you get to the heart of who you are, what motivates you, and how you can break through into your own personal brilliance.  

 

This training is about your life.

It is for those who dare to live a life fueled by passion, purpose and a noble pursuit.   What impact do you want to have?  How do you want to show up for the people around you? What is the legacy you will leave the world?

 

Is this program right for me?

Our accepted participants should be eager for challenge, curious and enthusiastic about new knowledge, interested in making a difference and are hungry to grow and expand. Train with us because you love yoga and want to share your love with the world!  This foundational program will advance your own practice, acquaint you with the many layers of yoga, and build your confidence to help you find your voice.

 

What to expect

Our 11-month program is as comprehensive as it is intense. We’ll work long hours one weekend each month (8am to 5pm with appropriate breaks and time for lunch) as well as hold our participants to very high standards of participation, conduct and timeliness. For ease of entrance and your schedule, there are three entry points throughout the year to join the training: September, December, or March (See Your Training Dates section to the left). This year (2023) however, with our move to our new space we are only doing ONE entry point in SEPTEMBER.

 

Our 200-hour teacher training curriculum includes:

• Advanced study of asana (proper alignment, benefits and potential risks, sanskrit names of postures)

• Principles of anatomy (physical and subtle)

• Science and art of sequencing a class

• Hands-on adjustments

• How to observe bodies

• Informed use of props to improve or modify a posture

• Cultivating your teaching voice

• Confidence-building through practice teaching

• Yoga history and philosophy

• Meditation

• The Business of Yoga

 

What Makes this 200 hour Training Unique?

We are committed to your success in the program and beyond! We will do our part to support you in any way we can. All trainings are kept small (10-20 people) to ensure that we have time to get to know you and directly meet your needs.  This allows for greater bonding between participants and plenty of individual time for personal introspection, personal development, and practicing crucial teaching skills.  

 

Each training weekend, you will:

• Teach & practice yoga daily (even on day one)

• Be challenged to take healthy risks in your teaching and your life

• Be asked to question what you already know and practice healthy skepticism

• Be asked to consider new perspectives & knowledge / stay in beginner’s mind

• Be asked to complete outside homework assignments / study during training

• Learn how to teach every class to the students in front of you (no auto-pilot)

• Teach a full one-hour class as part of your practicum

 

Fulfillment of this Training Program leaves you with:

• A Yoga Alliance Certification: You will earn a Certificate of Completion of a 200hr Yoga Teacher Training Program and be able to register with Yoga Alliance as a 200RYT. Our program meets the new credentialing requirements of the Yoga Alliance as of March 2020.

• A Wealth of Knowledge: You will leave with a deep understanding of the philosophy of yoga, asana, pranayama and meditation.    

• Full Embodiment: You will solidify and own your life, your yoga and faith practice experiences.

• Authenticity: You’ll learn how to authentically live your yoga on and off your mat.

• A Tool Box of Intelligent Class Designs: You will have learned the art and science of designing and delivering a safe, dynamic Vinyasa yoga class. You and your classmates will design classes with a specific purpose, giving you a notebook of ready to teach classes to start your yoga teaching career.

• Skills to Truly Teach: Our program isn't about memorizing and reciting sequences. Instead, an emphasis is placed on teaching principles for clearly instructing the bodies in front of you while bringing those bodies and minds into physical and energetic alignment.

• The Gift of Finding Yourself: This program will give you the space and opportunity to find your practice of transformation as well as develop/refine your own teaching style.

• Post Grad On-going Support: Support for graduates includes free repeat attendance at future 200-hour trainings & life-time access to Trish &/or Kate for guidance & questions as your yoga teaching journey unfolds. They will come alongside you as a teacher as well as if owning a studio is in your future.  It is a fantastic partnership for creating change in the world and continued encouragement for you to shine as brilliantly as possible!
