Frequently Asked Questions

How do I hold my spot? 

To save your space you will pay a $500 Non-Refundable deposit.

The program will exist with 5-12 students.

If this minimum is not made all deposits will be returned.

Why would I want to be certified by The Yoga Alliance?

The yoga alliance is one of the longest standing organizations supporting yoga instructors and setting the standards of YTT programing. 

This certification also allows you to join addition programs certified by

The Yoga Alliance.

Upon graduation &  registering you will be a RYT-200.

Do I need to buy any additional equipment? 

You will need a yoga mat, 2 yoga blocks and 1 yoga blanket to take you on your Teacher Training  journey.

We will discuss The Gita throughout our sessions. I highly recommend you purchase your own copy and read through it during or before our training.

What type of yoga will I learn how to teach?

Great question! You will learn a set sequence in the style of Vinyasa Yoga.

We will spend a good amount of time discussing & understanding how to sequence your own classes by altering what you have learned to fit into the style you feel most comfortable sharing, whether that's Gentle, Slow Flow, Power, Vinyasa,

Yin or Restorative yoga.

*Prenatal Yoga, Children's Yoga &

Trauma Informed Yoga traditionally require additional training. 

What if I have to miss a day of training? 

Life happens, I get it, occasionally events

& life bump into our best laid plans.

Any sessions you miss can be made-up via Zoom recordings & homework. Be sure to let me know about any absences as soon as you do, so we can find the best way to support you through the program. 

All 200 hours must be completed in order to receive your certification. 

How many yoga classes will I be taking through out the training? 

We will be practicing most sessions & you are required to take an additional 15 classes at any studio of your choice through out the program. I highly recommend trying out all the styles and teachers you can!
