DETAILS

The YogaWorks 200-Hour Program is a foundational training designed to provide people a transformational experience. It will take one’s personal practice to a whole new level and they will gain a deeper understanding of the many layers of yoga. For those who want to teach, they will learn the skills to teach an inspired and intelligent yoga class, marking the beginning of a successful career as a yoga teacher. In the training students will learn:

  • The proper alignment, benefits and potential risks of the foundational yoga postures

  • Principles of anatomy and how they apply to each posture

  • The science and art of sequencing a yoga class

  • An introduction into subtle body and meditation

  • Hands on adjustments

  • How to observe and see bodies

  • The art of the voice

  • Confidence through practice teaching

  • Yoga history and philosophy

  • Sanskrit names of the postures

In addition to learning all of the above, it’s an excellent way to become part of a like-minded community, make lifelong friends and have fun!

Make-Up Policy: 

  • Trainees may miss up to two full weekends (these must be made up). 

  • Saturdays are virtual, and make-up will involve watching recordings and submitting a written assignment based on the missed content.

For other missed days:
Option 1: 

  • Two “make-up” days will be offered—each a 3-hour session—designed to cover as much missed content as possible. The sessions will be small groups, allowing us to focus on key material. 

  • One session will be held midway through the training, and the other towards the end—exact dates to be determined. 

  • Trainees may attend one session at no extra cost. 

  • One 3-hour session equals one full weekend of missed training (excluding Saturday), totaling 11 hours. 

  • If a trainee misses two full weekends and wishes to attend both make-up sessions, the second session will be $50.

Option 2: 

  • A 2-hour private session for 11 hours of missed training at an additional cost of $250. 

  • These can be shared with other trainees who missed the same days/hours.
