Our world-renowned Advanced Studies & Teacher Training Program draws students from all continents. It is designed to deepen one’s understanding and practice of yoga, and may also be taken by those who are not necessarily intending to become yoga instructors. What is required is a basic understanding and experience of the practice, and a commitment to further explore the principles of yoga.

The 200-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING CERTIFICATION PROGRAM is approved for Yoga Alliance Registration. This Program can be completed in one year. For Certification, the entire program must be completed within a 3-year deadline.

Each Module is offered once a year, and the Program, and thus the payments, may be extended over three years. The exact cost depends upon which Elective Modules are choosen.

All prices quoted are “early-bird" discounted prices, only applicable when full payment (deposit PLUS balance) is paid by the early-bird deadlines. After early-bird deadlines, full prices are applicable. Please see individual brochures for details.

If your goal is to deepen your understanding of yoga - without necessarily committing to teaching or to becoming fully certified - you may take any of the individual courses offered in our Advanced Studies & Teacher Training Program. Please be aware that most courses have the Main Module (or equivalent) as pre-requisite. See individual Modules below for details.

All our courses are non-residential. See Lodging for helpful information.
