Teacher Training Graduates reviews

Madison M

I truly loved this program. Top to bottom, the knowledge was comprehensive and practical. It delved into the necessary information, setting us up for success in teaching and gave us a good taste of what paths we might want to take afterwards. I feel so ready and excited to teach, and completely supported by the faculty we step into the next chapter. So grateful for this training, and everything to come!

Avery B

I've wanted to do my yoga teacher training for some time now and the online experience was a great way to finally get it in! Jason is incredibly knowledgable and I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning how to teach yoga or simply deepen their practice.

Kristina S

I had such a great time doing the first-ever online teacher training at YogaTree! Online learning is typically not my favorite way to learn, however, the online teacher training was incredibly engaging and I loved it. I really enjoyed the in-depth knowledge we gained in a variety of subject areas (anatomy, philosophy, and of course, the asanas). I would highly recommend YogaTree's teacher training!

Mariam B

Yoga Tree's teacher training program is a well-rounded program that I highly recommend for yogis and non-yogis alike. In addition to learning technical and philosophical approaches to yoga from world-class teachers, I also learned so much about myself along the way. It is more than I could have anticipated and way more than I can convey in a simple testimonial! Thank you to Yoga Tree and all the teachers who taught me so much on this journey.

How is the Yoga Tree's Online Yoga Teacher Training different from other virtual options?

Yoga Tree’s Online teacher training is based on a multidisciplinary approach with a focus on Hatha, Ashtanga and Hot Yoga. An immersion program that blends movement, lectures, group study and self-development- all from home. Learn from experienced faculty members live over zoom and receive immediate guidance and feedback on your own alignment and technique to grow your practice and gain the confidence to teach others. With Yoga Tree’s network of five studios across the GTA, Yoga Tree reserves our economy classes to help our graduates grow and elevate their practice in studio settings. Six Months Unlimited Membership is included with tuition.

Do I need to have a strong, advanced practice to take Yoga Tree’s Teacher Training program?

We recommend a minimum of six months of practice and you have the desire to teach others and deepen your practice and knowledge of yoga with our experienced faculty.  

You will not be evaluated based on your ability to hold certain postures. 

We believe that all levels of practitioners can benefit from our Teacher Training. Our programs are designed to take you on a journey of self-discovery as well as teach yoga.

All it takes is your willingness to learn and keeping an open mind to allow for growth.

What styles will I be prepared to teach with Yoga Tree’s Yoga Teacher Training?

Yoga Tree’s teacher training philosophy stems from three yoga traditions: Hatha, Asthanga, and Hot Yoga.

Upon graduating from the program, students will have developed a personal teaching style, and comfort and ability to teach hot and non-heated Hatha-style classes. Hot Yoga training will not be held in a heated room. You will also gain familiarity with other styles such as vinyasa and gentle hatha, where you can choose to expand your knowledge further develop your practice as a yoga teacher.

What will a typical day of Yoga Teacher Training look like?

Each day will include a physical yoga practice – so be prepared to move!

Expect to be welcomed into a safe environment, and to let go of your fears from day one. Each day of your training will have a different focus taught by a core of senior teachers and rotating guest teachers sharing specific knowledge. You will enjoy intense days of training with a supportive and energetic group of people.

On a typical day, you will start with a morning 60 min practice, followed by theory and postural clinics. Lunch is 1 hr, followed by sequencing techniques or philosophy, ending the day with another 60 minutes of practice to incorporate and review postures studied during the day.

Why should I choose Yoga Tree’s Teacher Training Program?

As a Yoga Tree teacher-in-training, you will have access to our knowledgeable senior instructors and approachable mentors to help you learn. As part of your training, you will have unlimited access to our in-studio and online classes and our Yoga On Demand Channel, offering you a supportive and nurturing space to grow your yoga and teaching practices.

Our programs are designed to take you on a journey of self-discovery as well as teach yoga. All it takes is your willingness to learn and keeping an open mind to allow for growth

I'm not sure if I want to teach yoga, is this program right for me?
