200-hour Foundation Yoga Teacher Training
6 May – 13 August 2023
The 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training is a programme designed to offer yoga practitioners the skills to teach yoga. The focus of the programme is to offer participants a safe space to learn how to teach, to practice their teaching, and most importantly to improve their self-awareness and knowledge of yoga philosophy, history and background.
This course is available for everyone, both beginner and advanced yogis. We recommend that you have attended at least a year of regular yoga mat practice (2-3x per week) so you are well aware of the basics of yoga asanas. Participants are required to submit the application form, stating their personal details and medical history alongside motivations to take this course.
To reap the full benefits of this programme, 100% attendance is required. Upon completion of this course, participants will receive a 200-hour Yoga Alliance certified Teacher Training Certificate.
Our faculty are the current owners and teaching faculty of The Practice Studio, a boutique yoga studio located in the heart of Central in Hong Kong. The faculty are alumni of Patrick Creelman & Rinat Perlman’s 500-hour RYT WildLotus Teacher Training, and are all highly trained and experienced in teaching.
