300-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher

Summary

Yoga teacher training is designed and instructed for participants of various ability levels. We ensure thorough and diligent planning for a safe and effective delivery of information and techniques for all participants. Our program offers two yoga certifications – the 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher: Certificate of Achievement and the 300-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher: Certificate of Achievement. The courses are designed to prepare students to meet Yoga Alliance’s requirements to become a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT). In addition, students who earn both certificates are eligible to register as a 500-Hour yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance. For more information, visit Yoga Alliance.

This certificate prepares students to meet the requirements for the 300-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) certification through Yoga Alliance. This advanced training builds upon and deepens the trainee’s understanding of the fundamental concepts of the practice and teaching of yoga that are taught in the 200-hour certification. Specifically, this training enhances one’s ability to evaluate and analyze various levels of yoga classes (beginning through advanced), while obtaining essential and advanced yoga principles.

Note: Students are required to complete the coursework for the 200-hour RYT certification prior to enrolling in the 300-hour RYT certification courses. The 200-hour RYT coursework may be completed through San Diego Miramar College or a different institution. Please consult the catalog and counselors for more information.
