Advanced Yoga Teacher Trainings
300-hour · Yoga Alliance approved
Leads to 500-hour certification
You did the 200-hour. You've been teaching. And somewhere along the way, you started asking bigger questions.
Not about which pose to cue next. About why you're cueing it at all.
This training is personal. The cohort is small on purpose. You'll know your fellow trainees. They'll know you. The mentorship is real, the community sticks, and the growth goes places a crowded training room can't take you.
We meet one weekend a month over 18 months and the program icludes a retreat in October 2027
