There are two “tracks” for the 300 hour: Professional Development or Independent Research. Professional Development is for students who either are, or would like, to teach professionally. Independent Research is for students who want to delve deeper into a specific topic of yoga.
Professional Development students will have an opportunity to teach under the guidance of our primary teacher, Jen Whinnen, in the 200 hour.
Independent Research students will present their work at the end of the training.

300 Hour Cohort Schedule
This is a leadership focused training. Teachers who join this training must be responsible, self motivated and have a strong drive to build community. Like any advanced training, there is a time commitment, however we are flexible with scheduling and make-up hours. We believe your training should support you, not deplete you. If you need to miss class, you can make it up in a future training cohort.
