Want to become a yoga teacher? This training is 12 consecutive weeks of approximately 20 hours per week and will prove to be demanding, fulfilling and transformative! It is an ideal course for people who wish to acquire new skills toward a rewarding new career, as either a full-time or part-time yoga instructor.

Yoga has come of age and the number of people who practice yoga has increased three-fold in the last decade. As more and more people embrace yoga, there is an increasing demand for certified teachers. Yoga teaching has become one of the fastest growing professions in North America.

If you have discipline, dedication and a passion for yoga then this fast track teacher training program is for you.

This 250 hour yoga teacher training course covers the details and adjustments of each posture in the Primary Series of Ashtanga yoga and the use of these postures as the basis for a flowing Hatha class.

Meditation, Yoga Therapy, Sanskrit, Chanting, Anatomy, Physiology and Yoga Philosophy will be covered. In addition to the 14 hours of lecture time each weekend, students are required to attend 24 public classes, 8 observation classes (no class pass required) and 28 Yoga Clinic classes during the training period, to meet the course requirements.

To this end, each student will be given 52 class passes, plus a bonus of 10 class passes, which may be used at either our College or Danforth studio locations, while in the teacher training program. They will not be accepted outside of this time frame.

The successful completion of this 250-hour course qualifies you to find an entry-level position as a Certified Yoga Teacher and gives you all the foundations of learning to guide and instruct others.

A Certificate is granted upon satisfactory completion of the course.
