Contact hours, according to yoga alliance, is the time of education in which a teacher is present. One of many great aspects that sets us apart from other online yoga teacher training courses is the amount of contact hours we offer – up to 60 hours! That is 4 hours per week + 2 hours before the beginning of the course and 2 hours after the final exams.

Every week you will have a Zoom call with your lead teacher and a study group of 5 people. During the call you will be taking roles of teaching yoga, evaluating the teaching skills of your fellow students, and practicing the classes they give – a total of 4 hours

The exams are incorporated in your curriculum and take place during the last two weeks of study.

The final exams are comprised of several parts designed to holistically test your expertise as a professional yoga teacher. The exams will test your oral presentation skills, creativity, and teaching capability.

These will be the exams you will take:

Week 8

Oral presentation: 10 minutes on anatomy, 10 minutes on history/ philosophy

Teaching: Vinyasa Flow

Week 9

Written: Essay assignment

Teaching: Hatha Yoga

Very likely. There are multiple assessments, like an essay, oral presentations, and few hours of teaching – this will require you to have an adequate level of self-expression.

Put simply, 200 hours is the level 1 yoga teacher training, and 300 hours is generally the level 2.

Our 300h YTT takes you deeper into the knowledge of yoga. You already are a yoga teacher but this is your chance to go into the wisdom of the Anatomy, Yoga Philosophy, Shatkriyas, Asanas, Pranayama, Mudras and Meditation even deeper.

As long as you have Yoga Alliance 200h YTT certificate, you are able to attend our course.

Our course is quite strict with time, so we highly recommend you to commit and start the course when you have enough time for it. Why? We believe that giving more strict structure to the course will be more beneficial to you and your yogic path in many ways: it will create strong daily habits around your yoga practice, it will make the learning process easier, it will strengthen the devotion to your practice.

If you have to miss the practicum then you will have to notify us in advance.
