teacher training: September 2012–April 2013

We are very excited to offer a 200-hour teacher training. If you are interested in becoming a teacher or simply deepening your practice this could be the program for you. The first semester module is comprised of 100 hours and the second also 100 hours, take them both and you will have your training. Included in your training: in depth study of ethics, asana, anatomy, philosophy, pranayama, practice teaching, feedback on your teaching, hands on adjustments, business of being a yoga teacher, restorative yoga, select readings, special guest teachers (in addition to the wonderful Jaya teachers—Carla, Sarah, Kyle, Christine, Ramit…) and the list goes on. For the duration of the program you will be able to take unlimited classes at both of Jaya’s studios.

Jaya Yoga Center is a registered 200-hour yoga school with Yoga Alliance. This means our curriculum has a national certification.
