+ WHO IS TEACHER TRAINING FOR?

This Teacher Training is for anyone who has explored yoga in some depth through their own practice and most usually, have completed a 200-hour or equivelent teacher training. We assume you are practicing a form of Vinyasa yoga, most likely have started teaching yoga, and are hungry to learn more.

+ How long do I have to complete the 300-hour training?

You can complete the training over 12–36 months, depending on your pace. Most students complete it in 18–24 months. Each module will runs every 12-18 months, and electives can be taken at your own timing.

+ Do I have to attend every module live?

Yes, our core modules are taught live in person to ensure hands-on, embodied learning. Most modules also include online sessions for integration. Please note: one module is fully online.

+ What are the elective hours and how do I choose them?

You’ll choose 65+ hours from approved Yoga Moves workshops or trainings. You’ll get support in choosing the electives that match your interests or specialization path. Any of our trainings that have the Yoga Alliance: Continuing Education Provider (YACEP) hours can be included in your elective hours.

+ Is this training Yoga Alliance certified??

Yes. The full 300-hour program meets Yoga Alliance requirements for advanced training (RYT-500), as long as you already hold a 200-hour certificate from a recognised school.

+ WHAT IF I MISS A DAY OR A WEEKEND?

We ask you to prioritise your training days. We have a general rule: a student can miss no more than 10 training hours. However, you need to pass each module individually, thus when you miss a day you miss a lot of that program.

What to do? You will need to arrange with that teacher how you can make up the hours/days you miss. Generally, you will need to pay for a private session with them, to make up the hours you missed.

If you cannot attend an online session, we can record it. You will need to watch it within 10 days and write a note (and send a review to the teacher) to let us know you completed the viewing.

If you cannot make a whole weekend module, you can wait until the next year or next time its offered to take that module. We cannot gurentee it will be the exact module next round. Postponing a module a year has a €55 transfer fee. You will receive a non-passing status unless you make up those hours.

+ What is the final project?

You’ll research and design a class, workshop, or resource that reflects your personal path and interest as a teacher. It’s shared in the final weekend (or in another creative way) and helps bring your learning full circle.

+ How do I apply or get more info??

We regularly hold teacher training information sessions at our studios; See here is there are any planned. These are a great opportunity to meet some of the faculty, find out more about the trainings and ask any questions that you may have. If you have a more specific question feel free to ask our coordinator.

+ I HAVE A SPECIAL CONDITION OR INJURY OR PREGNANCY – CAN I STILL JOIN?

Each person is unique. We would like to discuss your situation with you and see what makes sense. Having said that, it is a dynamic practice, and this is not a therapeutic yoga course. We assume you are relatively healthy and able. If you and perhaps your doctor think it will be fine, we can more than likely accommodate you.

If you are pregnant, it will depend on how far along and your personal situation. We have had pregnant women in the course, but at some point the pregnancy slows them down. This would be good to discuss with us.
