200hr Hatha Yoga Teacher Training
​
& Personal Growth Intensive

Featuring In-Studio & Live-Stream Attendance

We have just completed a training session all live-streamed! Currently the Yoga Alliance is allowing studios to do this and graduates can register with them... As things ease up a little bit, we will offer a choice to participants: in person or streaming.  A portion of the class will be streamed for everyone; part of it will be either/or.

You will get the same professional training you have come to expect from the Yoga Connection! Also, at this time you can "attend" recordings of missed classes!

Dear Seeker

"To Teach Is To Learn". Make the rewarding transition from student to teacher. Our course provides extensive hands-on training and the necessary tools and techniques to teach a wide variety of  students. If teaching yoga, deepening your practice and being of service speaks to you, we invite your to look more closely at our program.

The progression from Hatha Yoga student to Hatha Yoga teacher can be an important step in your path of personal growth. Become part of the sacred process of sharing this teaching with others.

Graduates will be eligible for immediate registration through Yoga Alliance® as RYT 200.

Who Can Attend?

All students interested in teaching yoga are invited to apply.  Proficiency of the postures is not a prerequisite, however, we suggest one year (approximately 50 hours) of yoga experience. We require a minimum of 10 hours at our studio prior to the first class.
