Yorktown Yoga and Wellness

The Garden of Zen Yoga Teacher Training (GOZYTT) 200-hour Registered Yoga School located at Yorktown Yoga and Wellness has been uniquely designed to attune to the very heartbeat of our beautiful Earth and the universal sound of Om the vibrational oneness of all. We have taken special care to design a curriculum that will encourage a sense of peace and relaxation for all. Our hope is that all who enters will find the studio to be a safe and comfortable place to broaden and expand their own yoga practice while cultivating the inner True Self which resides in each one of us. Through self-development, we can share the teachings with others both informally and formally as you may start a yoga teacher business.

Our hybrid curriculum includes both in-studio and live-stream hours adding convenience to those with busy schedules yet having the in studio time to share and develop as a group. The curriculum includes a core consisting of 8 weekends in studio, and 3 modules on Tuesday evenings mostly via live stream. This format allows rolling enrollment where students can begin throughout the year and complete the program in approximately one year.

Our training encompasses hatha including vinyasa yoga, breathwork, meditation, and introductory material in teaching specialty populations in our curriculum as we are aware of the importance of making yoga accessible and welcoming for all. Specialized material includes adaptive/chair, restorative, yin, prenatal/postpartum/parent & child, children, and trauma/PTSD. Other topics include anatomy and physiology, philosophy, ayurveda, business, ethics, and much more.

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. Eternal Peace.
