THE DETAILS

A 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training is a big commitment of time and money.  It is available and accessible and doable to all who choose to undertake it.  While many people take a Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) with the intent to teach, that is not a necessary goal.  Many people take the training to deepen their own knowledge and practice of yoga.  

Financial Investment

This YTT is available for the tuition cost of $2500.  This covers all in person training, supervision, assistance and certification. It also covers unlimited access to all classes at Seva Yoga.  It does not cover required reading materials. 

Seva Yoga Members pay a discounted rate of $2000.

There is also a $100 discount for those who choose to pay with cash, check or Venmo.

Requirements

Seva Yoga School of Yoga will accept any person over the age of 18 who choose to engage in this journey.  Some knowledge of yoga is required, but beginning practitioners are welcome.  There will be a short application where participants can explain their interest and goals in this program, to assure that they align with and are achievable by this program.

Time Commitment and Schedule

This program runs one weekend a month for 8 months.  Times are Fridays from 5:00 - 9:00 pm, Saturdays from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm and Sundays 10:00 to 5:30 pm.  There are also outside of class tasks, readings, homework and projects. All efforts will be made to stick to this schedule.  Unfortunately, sometimes things do not go the way they are planned for a variety of reasons.  Should weekends need to be rescheduled, the needs of each student will be taken into account and the necessary modifications will be made so that each student will be able to successfully complete the program.  The schedule of weekends are below:

February 15 and 16 (Feb 16th is the Yoga Mala, which will be part of this training!)

March 7, 8 and 9

April 11, 12 and 13

May 9, 10 and 11

June 13, 14 and 15
