what our past graduates have to say about their complete 500-hour transformation.
"I had my RYT-200 for three years, but this course took my teaching to a new level. The module on advanced sequencing (Module 1) and the business of yoga (Module 5) gave me the confidence to finally quit my job and lead my own retreats."
"The hands-on adjustment clinic (Module 4) was worth the entire price. I learned more about real-world teaching in that one week than in my entire 200-hour course. The philosophy deep-dives with Jaggi Ji were incredible. Highly recommend."
