teacher training: 200 hour accreditation

ryt - 200 information

Left Coast is proud to present our National Yoga Alliance Certified, 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training.

Yoga Teacher Training is a life-changing opportunity to explore every facet of the Yoga Practice.

Some of our folks take YTT because they wish to teach. Some do it to deepen and understand their own practice.

Our graduated teachers have gone on to teach at local studios, gyms, schools, workplaces, jails, detention centers, and just about everywhere in between.

We feel that YTT is the antidote to the modern world. Where society pulls us apart, it brings us together. Where online culture lets us tread lightly, YTT draws us in deep. There will be tears and breakthroughs. This is not an easy journey… but it is such a worthwhile one.

We curate each new class based on an oral and written application process.

Please fill out the application below, and we will follow up with you.

(We recommend a minimum of one year of yoga practice before embarking on this journey.)

Yoga Teacher Training is led by the Left Coast Senior Instructor Family!

Our 2023 Applications are now closed. The next Cohort will begin in January 2024. Please email us using the button below and we will send you information when it is ready!

Some testimonials from previous Graduating Classes:

“This training has deepened my own yoga practice, opened my eyes to yoga anatomy, philosophy, pranayama & sequencing. If you are thinking of embarking on a yoga journey there is no better place to start than with the Left Coast Yoga Teacher Training. Thank you to all the teachers involved in the program, and to the other 2021 graduates.” (Graduate 2021)

“I am truly sad that the training has ended. I learned so much about yoga and about myself, while making some wonderful new friends. I would highly recommend Left Coast's teacher training to anyone who is interested in deepening their practice. Thanks so much for the wonderful experience.” (Graduate 2021)

“Overall I really enjoyed this journey. So blessed to be part of this community of trainers/trainees and YTT. What a journey! The YTT was very well planned and executed.”

I loved being a part of this teacher training! I joined the group in order to deepen my yoga practice, learn more about anatomy and alignment, and to build community, and all three of those goals were met. The teachers were knowledgable, the learning was a great mix of didactic and experiential, and the people in my group are wonderful. I recommend this training to anyone who wants to expand their knowledge of yoga and to build teaching skills. (Graduate 2022)

I feel very welcome at left coast and it has a special place in my heart! I loved that the retreat was included and that you did a little graduation ceremony! Great touches! And the mentor sessions were extremely helpful in preparing for the final. I also love that you continue to support student learning after the program. I felt really bonded with my group in the end and was given the space to grow and learn in a loving, authentic environment. I had many powerful moments throughout. I hope to take another training with you all someday someday. (Graduate 2022)

I stumbled upon yoga in 2013 after multiple sports injuries, and I never knew yoga would become such a big part of my life! Not only has it healed me physically, but I also found myself in a much better mental state ever since. I’ve been to a couple of different yoga studios and I never felt ready to start my yoga teacher training journey until I came across Left Coast Power Yoga. And I have to say that the people I’ve met at Left Coast made me want to start my journey here! From day one, I felt welcomed.

Going through teacher training with Left Coast was more than I could ever expect, I've learned so much more than the Asana aspect of yoga, not to mention I've made some amazing friends from this classroom. I highly recommend starting your teacher training here! (Graduate 2022)
