If you are interested in becoming a yoga teacher or simply want to learn more about yoga for your own growth and well-being, this training is for you. Our 200-hour program takes 15 months to complete, ensuring a depth of information and time to assimilate and understand it all. We are a Registered Yoga School with Yoga Alliance at the 200-hour level and are currently up-leveling to their advanced standards of study. We believe in depth of study over time so you have time to soak it all in.

We have hosted students from Georgia, Tennessee, North & South Carolina. Graduates have gone on to teach around the United States, Germany and England. Graduates from our program have opened successful yoga studios such as One Love Yoga in Taylors, SC; Be Humble in Dallas, GA; Total Being Yoga in Matthews, NC.

Join us for a course that includes courageous personal reflection that allows the highest version of yourself to shine through, and your best life to emerge. When your practice is calling you to go beyond the physical, this course will help you bridge yoga into your daily life. Witness your actions as they become more mindful and align with your beliefs, creating a life that you love.

Immerse yourself in our six-month study with a group of dedicated students who are ready to delve more deeply into the principles and traditions of Yoga. This is a perfect course for anyone who wishes to soak up yogic wisdom or become an example of leadership in their field.

Each weekend we will study one of five virtues: gratitude, forgiveness, honesty, kindness, and humility. During the sixth weekend, you will create a personal code of conduct in order to live your Yoga each day. You will be required to read one book for each meeting and home practices will be given should you choose to get the most out of your experience.

Explore the difference between an instructor (someone who simply calls out cues) and a teacher (someone who sees and holds space). Learn how to communicate clearly, teach in levels and inspire your students. Time will be spent practice teaching and you will be given clear, constructive feedback.
