Yoga's Arc Yoga Teacher Training

Yoga’s Arc 200-Hour YTT

Our 200 Hour is divided into 8-Units (March - November, detailed schedule below!)

Offering BOTH In-Person and Virtual options!

Your Yoga’s Arc Yoga Teacher Training (YA YTT) journey begins right here!

YA YTT is designed to equip all yoga instructors with the ability to teach the most experienced yoga practitioner alongside someone who may have had a knee/hip replacement next to someone who is sedentary and has never practiced before.  Our goal is to prepare you to be able to teach to Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime which is Yoga’s Arc’s mission.  At Yoga’s Arc Yoga Teacher Training, it is not about perfecting the postures, but about learning how to teach the postures to all bodies.

Our Story

We were born out of a passion for outreach. We are a country and world that has become sick, overworked, immobile, and overstressed. The opportunity to engage in physical activity that enables a healthy life should not be a privilege or choice, but a universal right.

We believe in three main bottom lines:

1) The Reach and Impact in the life of those who need it the most

2) Ensuring our instructors are empowered, safe, and rewarded

3) Sustainability and scalability, to allow the vision to transcend

After practicing and teaching yoga for the last 25 years, we were wondering how we could bring yoga to those who need it most - the overworked,  the unable, and the under-served. To reach these people, convenience was the name of the game. The movement had to be fueled by flexibility and a willingness to join people in every step of the journey. So we thought outside the four walls of our studio and created Yoga's Arc.  Four years later, we're even more energized to keep changing the mindset of what yoga can look like. To us, yoga looks like coworkers sharing in morning rejuvenation. Yoga looks like a healing breakthrough for a stroke survivor in her own living room. Yoga looks exactly how you envision it. With more than 70 instructors across the Valley, we're growing fast, and we're excited to meet you wherever you are in your yoga instructor journey. We are here to mentor you and prepare you every step of the way, until you feel ready to spread your wings and share the gifts that yoga can bring to everyone, anywhere, anytime.

Our Purpose

Everyone has a right to feel their best in mind and body. Yoga isn’t about self-improvement, it’s about self-love. We want to spread the message that people do not need to be able to touch their toes to practice yoga. Anyone can practice yoga.  We believe it is our responsibility to share the love and power of the practice by bringing unique classes to our clients. We teach to stretch minds and we teach to stretch bodies.  We will encourage our YA YTT Future Instructors in training to do the same, to stretch their minds and bodies so they can begin to help others do the same.

Our Core Values

The highest standards of personal and professional ethics and behavior are expected of all our trainees. Further, we expect our trainees to display good judgment, diplomacy, and courtesy in their professional relationships with one another and with our clients and instructors. That being  said, our core values are the following:

•  Listen

Be Empathetic

Always listen to the body

Strong Open-Door policy

• Learn

• Always Learning, through continuous Education, Growth & Development

• Embrace Challenge, Opportunities are born here!

• Apply what you learn

• Inspire to want to do your best

• Celebrate

• You

• Your accomplishments

• All you learn and who you impact along the way

• Remember to always be humble

• We are One Family!

YA YTT Attendance Policy

Our philosophy on attendance is to provide you with several options to learn when it is convenient for you. We expect you to do your best to be on time for in-person classes and mentorship programs, however, we also know that life happens, and part of learning to teach yoga is learning to balance life while taking care of yourself to become the teacher you need to become. We provide our program so you can choose to participate in person, virtually, and on-demand, or all of the above. We understand that we all learn differently. We also understand that you have important commitments outside of our program. Should extenuating circumstances impact attendance, you are permitted to miss class, provided you work with the program director to make up any missed hours. You are responsible for rescheduling missed hours to make up any course material you have missed. Your options will be watching the recorded class you missed, and if it is an activity you need to participate in our faculty will work with you to help coordinate the activity. If you need to miss any training session, you must speak to the program director before the beginning of the session and follow the instructions to make up for the missed classes. Students recognize that, if they miss training hours that they have not made up, they will not graduate from the program.

YA YTT Payment/Refund Policy

Upon receiving an acceptance email, you will be charged $300 for your initial deposit. For every 2 Units (which is equivalent to 50 hours) you will be invoiced for 25% of your balance until your balance is paid in full, which is your last 50 hours.  We are open to creating a monthly payment plan for those who request it.  The program will not give any refunds or credits after the training starts. The program reserves the right to cancel any training before it begins. In that case, any payments applicants have made will be refunded in full.
