​There are cheaper options and more expensive ones, just like any education system/learning platform.  Ultimately you have to decide which program, despite cost, fits you and your goals best.  This endeavor is more of a LIFE training, so consider not letting it be about cost, but about fit.  Our program is designed to be flexible and very robust but also with REAL LIVE support when you need it. 

Once you enroll in the course, you will get an email from Podia (our online learning platform) with your log in information then you will log in and start at the introduction. If you have trouble or questions, contact us. In between the modules available in Podia, you can start to incorporate your personal practice requirements and teaching requirements. You do not need to complete the Podia content first to start. You can alternate, as long as you complete the appropriate hours for all three.

Once you have completed all requirements listed below for verification, and have a zero balance, a certificate will be issued subject to final review of all documents and videos/teachings.  This process can take up to two weeks.  Please note, if a balance is owed at the time you complete training, your certificate will reflect the date of completion, but you will not receive it until your tuition has been paid in full. Remember, you have access on Podia for life so come back as you wish.

You will receive access to the course materials in Podia that include 12 modules, a final exam, PDF manual, and additional resources. PLUS you'll get 3 months FREE access to Project Mindful Movement's Online Yoga Studio Collective to help you complete your practice hours. Our course includes multiple methods of learning: pre-recorded content in the student portal (Podia), live lectures, community learning, and personal practice. The final practicum requires that students create, record and submit a minimum of (1) hour of you teaching, track and submit 12 hours of practice teaching, track and submit 48 hours of personal practice, as well as pass an open book multiple-choice exam with 80%. Our training has flexible learning so come and go as you please.

How long it takes you to complete could take two months or one year, that is up to you. The beauty of the online course is the flexibility designed to meet you where you are.  Once complete you are welcome to register with Yoga Alliance. Yoga Alliance is an independent organization that has standardized yoga teacher training. It is not required to be registered with Yoga Alliance in order to teach yoga, but there are benefits, of which you can read about on their website.

Each person’s journey is different. We have students who can complete it in 8-10 weeks if they dedicate 3-4 hours a day, and we have some students who don’t have as much room in their schedule and it takes up to 6 months + to complete. Remember, everyone is different though, so please take your time and truly absorb the information prior to moving onto the next section.

Contact us first to get started. Note: The My Career Advancement Account Scholarship program is open to spouses of active-duty service members, National Guard and reserve members under qualifying Title 10 orders in pay grades E-1 through E-5, W-1 through W-2 and O-1 through O-2. The authorization of the fiscal 2020 National Defense Authorization Act allows military spouses to remain eligible for the financial assistance offered through the MyCAA Scholarship if their sponsor is promoted above the eligible ranks as long as the spouse has an approved Education and Training Plan in place.

We do not accept ‘Download Only’ files. Please make sure that your file can be viewed online, such as through Google Drive, Dropbox, YouTube (Unlisted) or any comparable platform of your choice.

We will be using zoom. It is a free and easy to use platform. The first Thursday of every month at 11am EST/10am CST will be an optional live session including guest speakers (you don’t have to attend live, the recordings will be uploaded into Podia for optional growth & learning).

Yes! Live lectures are optional to attend.  They are just extra opportunities to learn and grow (and even include some CE credit hours for our YTT graduates!).  Everything will be recorded and stored on the Podia platform so that you can watch it at your pace, if desired.

We get it! We too love the summary style of learning. However, as part of the Yoga Alliance certification requirements, you must fulfill the entire 200 hours of learning which includes all the module videos and reading (the extras, resources, live guest speakers, etc are not required and are just extra opportunities to learn and grow). This is an honor system of course, and each student will take what they need/want/desire from their learning journey.
