OVERVIEW & SUMMARY

Picture
There are two options for the 200 Hour Ghosh Yoga Foundational Level Teacher Training Program: this option consists of self paced video lectures culminating with an in-person intensive.

You will learn functional anatomy and the histories and philosophies of yoga through video series lectures. You will have a schedule to follow to ensure you are prepared for the in-person intensive. However, you will have freedom to adjust your personal study and practice to suit your schedule. 

You will learn to address the needs of different student populations, different class lengths and difficulties, making you a versatile and effective teacher. 

​You will receive personalized teaching feedback regularly, and refine your understanding and teaching over time. The benefit of the longer course, is the ability to integrate the information effectively.




"I have been teaching for almost 4 years before I took this training. Scott and Ida were able to identify things I needed to work on that no one else has ever done. I now speak with clarity and confidence and they have sparked my curiosity to continue to learn more about yoga. I highly recommend this program for everyone.​" - Steve

"I took this course not to become a teacher, but to expand and deepen and provide some accountability for my own practice. It was hugely beneficial for all of those goals. The material, the community, the practice - everything was so helpful. Scott and Ida are amazing teachers: clear, focused, supportive, open, knowledgeable, generous. You will not regret taking this course." -Nancy

"The Ghosh Yoga Foundational Teacher Training was a great experience! The length, depth, and breadth of the course enabled me to take true ownership of my personal practice, including pranayama and breathing, asana, and study. I'm now confident in my ability to develop asana practices and to execute them safely, whether for myself or others. Highly recommend this course for anyone with the motivation and dedication to do the work at home!"- Leah

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

A: No. A home practice is sufficient for this course. However, trainees can also practice at their local studio as desired.
