About Funky Buddha Yoga

Working within the Yoga Alliance certification framework– and utilizing adult learning theory, decades of experience, and deep study with world-renowned yogis –our team has intentionally crafted our Teacher Training programs. We’ve trained hundreds of yogis and have grown to become a regional leader in yoga teacher training. Whether you feel called to teach or simply want a way to deepen your practice, there’s a place for you in the Funky Buddha Teacher Training Programs.

We love having a platform to share our growth, knowledge, and experiential wisdom with you. We know that you’ll see it, too, as our training programs teleport you into a new level within yourself.

We include communication training that you can take with you into relationships, both personal and professional, as well as deep dives into yourself through ancient wisdoms like the Yoga Sutras and Buddhist teachings, as well as modern tools and science. Teachers – and all humans – need tools that work, we believe students deserve the best of what we can give them.

Personally developed by our long-time Director, Larissa Link, Funky Buddha’s Teacher Training Programs are a carefully and obsessively designed yoga education, focused on deepening a teacher’s yoga practice first, and then giving them the tools to teach that practice effectively.
