Recently, Yoga Alliance revised their standards to allow for online certification through 2023. This means our private personalized teacher training can be attended safely from your home virtually and still allow you to register with Yoga Alliance upon graduation.
Yoga is such a powerful tool for everyone, especially through the formative years of babies through teens. In this course, we bring together our vast knowledge of our South Asian heritage of yoga (including pranayama, asana, meditation) and our vast experience teaching/leading babies through teen yoga programs in schools, yoga studios, community centers, etc.
This 95 hour teacher training experience will empower you to teach kid’s yoga for ages 12 weeks through teens.
Once you complete our 95 hour prenatal yoga teacher training (and complete your RYS200 hours as well as 30 teaching hours post graduation in kid’s yoga), you will be able to register with Yoga Alliance as a Registered Children’s Yoga Teacher (RCYT).
