What is the "yoga alliance"?

The Yoga Alliance is the largest internationally recognized professional organisation for yoga teachers and schools. The Yoga Alliance maintains teaching and ethical standards. The fact that the Yoga Alliance has certified our programme means you can have complete confidence that it meets with its exacting standards and that all of our teachers have the necessary qualifications.

Once you have completed your 200-hour level training, you can apply to register with the Yoga Alliance. Once accepted you can use the title “200 RYT” or “Registered Yoga Teacher”

How intensive will the course be?

For the first 19 days of the course students will work from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday, and from 9am to 5pm over two weekends. After this period the workload will remain significant but students will be able to operate a more flexible timetable as they prepare for their final exams.

This course is designed to enable people to train and qualify as yoga teachers over a period of one month. As a result, it is necessarily mentally and physically challenging. We’re confident that you will enjoy the programme and that it will fuel your passion for yoga but it is also important students understand the level of commitment required.

What style of yoga is taught?

We specialise in Power Yoga. Our students will be specifically taught to teach Power Yoga.

Can I do the teacher training even if I just wish to develop my own practise rather than teach?

Our course is designed to help students to reach the necessary level to qualify as teachers. Most of our past students now teach yoga, either full or part-time, although some chose to do the course because they simply wished to develop their understanding of yoga. We welcome everyone but, whatever your motivation, ALL students will be expected to follow the same curriculum and complete the same homework and exams.

When will i find out if I had been accepted into the training?

Our intensive course is demanding. We will only accept, as students, those who we feel have a strong chance of completing it successfully. We will assess your application within seven days of receiving it.

What is the refund policy if I'm unable to attend the training?

The Power Yoga Company does not offer refunds for the Teacher Training except in the case where you are deemed medically unfit to participate. In this instance you will receive a full refund less our reasonable administrative costs.

Is there a specific age limit?

There is no specific age limit to become a teacher.
