Yoga Teacher Training

  • Teacher Training for Nice People

    Ready to deepen your commitment to yoga or become a registered yoga teacher?

    Whether you're called to teach or simply want to explore yoga more deeply for your personal growth and well-being, our Yoga Teacher Training is designed to support your journey.

    This immersive, 15-month program is intentionally paced to give you the time and space to fully absorb, embody, and integrate what you learn β€” so the transformation is real and lasting. Training is divided into three comprehensive segments. You can begin in Segment 1 or 2, and complete all three to be eligible for a 200-hour registration with Yoga Alliance or a Level 1 Certification with the American Yoga Council.

    We are a Registered Yoga School (RYS) with Yoga Alliance, as well as American Yoga Council and are currently expanding our curriculum to meet their advanced standards β€” a reflection of our ongoing commitment to excellence and integrity in yoga education. We value depth over speed, and our structure supports lifelong learning and authentic understanding.

    Liz has been leading Yoga Alliance approved trainings since 2006. She has trained over 300 students, in the Upstate and beyond, many of whom have become beloved teachers and studio owners. Our graduates come from across the U.S. β€” including Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, and the Carolinas β€” and have gone on to teach both nationally and internationally in places like Germany and England. Many have even launched their own thriving studios, including:
    ✨ One Love Yoga in Taylors, SC
    ✨ Be Humble in Dallas, GA
    ✨ Total Being Yoga in Matthews, NC
    ✨ Zen Rabbit in Travelers Rest, SC

    ✨ Yoga Raum Ammersee in Germany!

    Join a program that honors your pace, nurtures your growth, and connects you with a passionate community of yogis and teachers.

Segment 1: Living the Five Virtues

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.
