About this retreat

Yoga Studies at Loyola Marymount University provides a deep study of the Yoga tradition from multiple perspectives through continuing education classes and certificates and a Master of Arts degree, offered both in residential and low-residency formats. These programs help students explore Yoga's rich history, its relationship to religion and spirituality, and Yogic philosophy. Students study primary classical texts, learn the Sanskrit language, explore the health benefits of physical practice, and look at the placement of modern Yoga in today's world.

Continuing Education certificates are offered year-round in Yoga Philosophy, YogaEd, and Yoga Teacher Training and are open to all. Please follow the links below. Graduate students seeking the M.A. in Yoga Studies must apply for admission. They may choose to pursue a Yoga Therapy concentration or a Post-Graduate Yoga Therapy Certification. A new cohort begins each fall semester.

What students say

★★★★★

I am elated and so proud to have received my Yoga Education Certifications from LMU. Being a part of the very first cohort of the MA Program was an honor that I will cherish forever. The teachers and my colleagues were very unique and highly experienced individuals that I respect and admire to this day. I highly recommend the LMU Yoga Programs to anyone who wants to take their knowledge to the next level and impact their lives as well as that of others around them with their knowledge.
