YOGĀRT COLLECTIVE is a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS), offering a transformative and holistic 200-Hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training. Rooted in ancient wisdom and integrated with modern insights, this training is designed to support your personal growth and empower you to become a conscious and confident yoga teacher and practitioner.
At YOGĀRT COLLECTIVE, we explore the foundations of yoga through a holistic lens, blending the traditional teachings of Hatha Yoga with the elemental frameworks of Ayurveda, the sister science of Yoga. This immersive journey is underpinned by the philosophical depth of Samkhya, giving you a multidimensional understanding of body, mind, and spirit. With an emphasis on anatomy, energetic alignment, and the subtle body, you will learn to teach with clarity, integrity, and heart.
Our Hatha Yoga methodology honors the roots of the practice while incorporating a balance of movement and stillness, strength and surrender. You’ll explore classical asana, pranayama, mantra, meditation, Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and mindfulness practices—all in relation to the five Elements. Understanding these elements in yourself and your students becomes a powerful tool for sequencing, teaching, healing, and self-awareness.
Throughout the training, you’ll be guided in developing the skills to create safe, intelligent, and soulful classes that honor both the physical and energetic bodies. Whether your intention is to teach or deepen your own practice, this training invites you into a space of inner inquiry, integration, and embodied wisdom.
We place great importance on experiential learning, self-reflection, and group connection. Our learning environment is supportive, inclusive, and intentionally crafted to awaken your authentic voice as a teacher. Through dynamic group practices, personal rituals, and one-on-one guidance, you will grow not only in knowledge but in presence and purpose.
