Our Programs fulfill all the requirements for the 200 level Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) certification with Yoga Alliance.See our profile on Yoga Alliance.We offer our 200-hour program through Self-Paced Online programs, Live Zoom Group Trainings, and In-Person Trainings. To be eligible for registration with Yoga Alliance, students participating in one of our trainings must also complete our Introductory online course along with the training.
Our program is inspired by the teaching of T. Krishnamacharya. His focus on an individualized approach to yoga for each student is at the heart of this training. We value the individual in you and through our program, you learn how to discover your own style of teaching and practicing yoga. You will learn how to effectively teach to a wide variety of individuals, how to connect with your students, and how to help your students and yourself gain a deeper sense of internal awareness and ease through the practice of yoga. Rather than mold you into our style, we offer you the best practices from a variety of hatha yoga traditions and help you find your own unique style and path in your yoga journey. We believe that you are more powerful than you could ever imagine, and we’re here to help you discover that power.
Along with offering the highest quality training programs, we are mindful of your budget and do our best to make our programs affordable. While we keep our tuition costs low, you will be amazed by the quality of our training programs. During the training, and long after it’s over, we will be there for you, supporting your work as a yoga teacher, bringing new opportunities to you, and helping you in any way to bring your gifts to the world.

The Yoga Teacher Training Introductory Online Program is a required part of the 200 hour training.
Before you join us for the yoga teacher training intensive, you will need to register and begin our Introductory Online program. You don’t need to complete the online program – you only need to register and start the online program before joining us for any live RYT 200 session, or before completing the self-paced option for RYT 200. The Introductory course covers many important foundational aspects of teaching yoga. It also fulfills your non-contact hours and provides an introduction to many of the topics we will cover during other training sessions. Once you register for the RYT 200 Program, you will receive a link to sign up for the Introductory Online Course if you have not already done so.
You can complete make up time for missed sessions. If you know you will need to miss a live session, please let us know in advance so we can make sure you receive your make-up requirements.
After submitting your application, you will be asked to pay a fee of $195 for the introductory online course and to reserve your spot in any live training (or to start your self-paced option). The full tuition for any training will be due before the first day of the training.
If you have previously completed the Yoga Teacher Training Introductory Online Program, you will just need to submit an application for any in-person or Zoom program. You will already be listed as paid for the online course and your space will be reserved in the training without any additional fees.
