Join Yoga Vida digitally this Fall for our Yoga Alliance certified Online 200 Hour Teacher Training program. Whether you want to become a yoga teacher or simply deepen your home practice, this foundational training program will transform your understanding of yoga.

Over the 8 weeks of training, students will work at their own pace to complete weekly assignments, such as watching prerecorded training content. Each weekend, students will then meet live with senior Yoga Vida teachers for interactive training sessions that will reinforce key concepts and skills.

Yoga Vida has run an established 200 Hour program over the past 10 years, which has graduated more than 950 students. Our digital training format may be new, but this program will run on the same foundation of community and accessibility. Whether you have practiced yoga for 6 months or 16 years, if you are ready to learn, then this 200 Hour Teacher Training Program is for you!
