yoga Teacher Training

The virtual option means that you can join us via zoom LIVE during our intensive weekends. If you sign up for virtual and then are not able to join live for any reason that is totally fine, you can watch the videos of the intensive afterward. This give you the option to join us live if you choose. When you are live we ask you to be an engaged trainee, as if you were in the room. You are projected on the wall with your fellow virtual trainees and your voice comes through the speaker system, so that you are seen and heard like students who are in the room. We work to make it a highly interactive online experience.

On Demand means that you will watch all of the lectures on your own time. This option means you do not join us live during intensive weekends, but you login and progress through the training on your own schedule. You do not participate in the training with a group for this option, you are one on one with your video lectures and āsana classes. This option works better for folks who need maximum flexibility. Lead instructors Roni, Tina, Ashley and Maryam are all available to you throughout, so you have support as needed from a real human. The On Demand purchase option will be posted soon and content will be available January 1st!

This is a 200hr training program that will take 10 months to complete. There are 50 hours of virtual lecture and 150 hours of live intensives. You will complete 5 intensives every other month, either virtually or live with us in-person depending on how you registered and available space. If you need to miss an intensive, no worries, we will record them and make those videos available to you.

During the months in between your intensives, you will have the 50 hours of on demand lectures to complete at your own pace as well as physical yoga practices to supplement what you are learning in those lectures.

You may take longer than 10 months to complete if needed. We find that 10 months is an ideal length of time to allow the training to work with your family and lifestyle, while also allowing time for the knowledge to build and integrate, as well as time to practice teach.

Once you have completed the training, you have up to one year to turn in your graduation materials and be approved to recieve your certificate.
