Amazing program whether you are looking to teach or simply deepen your yoga and enrich your life.
All of our teacher trainings are structured to be beneficial and enjoyable for those who wish not to teach. We believe yoga is a path of lifelong learning. Teacher training is a term that we use because we are Yoga Alliance and Washington State Certified Teaching Vocational School and that is the language that they determined for these classes. But that does not mean that these trainings are restricted for teachers only. We welcome everyone who is curious, who enjoys learning, who wishes to understand yoga in a deeper level.
Yoga is not just a workout. Yoga is a philosophy and a meditative art. Thus teacher training should be about enabling students to think, research, and understand. Spira does not believe in teaching script memorization and set-sequences. A teacher should understand technique and methodology and construct his or her classes in a way that is safe and creative in mind and body and appropriate for the students who are in class. A well-rounded teacher has a strong grip of anatomy, mindfulness meditation, philosophy, history and an everlasting passion for connecting with people and learning.
We have sold out for the past five years.
Spira does not believe in applications. This is nine months long journey open to everyone; we can all learn from one and other no matter what is our level of physical capability! If we are to teach the public with many different bodies, we are much better off if our class is diverse! Also yoga is a philosophy, during the nine-months long journey you will find your way. We don’t teach a compressed short course for this very reason. Self Enrichment through Yoga Teacher Training is for everyone. All I need from you is your commitment.

Our training exceeds 200 hours to allow people a bit of flexibility. Our curriculum is nine months long; it is not realistic to demand perfect attendance since occasional flu or family situation does not discriminate between regular time and yoga teacher training time.
You can miss three days or one-weekend block and still have enough hours for the certificate.
I always send out review notes and homework assignments via email. I am also available for my students for a quick catch up with a cup of tea.
