Teacher Training

The Yoga Shala Seattle teacher training program is based on a progressive approach to Ashtanga yoga. The Program aims to support you to become a skillful yoga teacher, as well as to deepen your personal practice-fostering self-awareness, community, and compassion towards self and others. Our program is a Registered Yoga School (RYS) with Yoga Alliance.

Course Offerings

The 200-hour course explores the principles of the Ashtanga Vinyasa Method, Yoga History and Philosophy, the art of hands-on assists, as well as best practices and techniques to facilitate yoga classes. The content will be covered by lead teachers, supported by expert guest teachers, to foster a learning community in which we all grow together.

The Rocket (TM) 50-hour course is a modern approach to the fundamental teachings of Ashtanga Yoga - a global system designed to hone inner focus and to train the body. Progressive Ashtanga keeps the rigor of the practice while allowing for creative sequencing within a semi-set framework. This course is designed for teachers with RYT-200 or similar credentials.
