The Essential Yoga Taacher Training is a deep dive into learning more about yourself and your personal yoga practice while empowering you as a teacher. It’s designed to foster new teachers and enhance the knowledge base and skill set of existing teachers. Individuals who have no intention of teaching yoga are also encouraged to join the course as a way of deepening their personal practice.
Dive into a transformative educational journey where theory meets practice. Our intimate training environment features:
Thought-provoking inquiries and curated readings that ignite meaningful dialogue among participants
Daily embodied movement sessions that bring lectures to life, allowing you to experience concepts rather than merely understand them intellectually
Small, intentional class sizes fostering profound connections and personalized attention
This integrated approach ensures that your learning transcends the intellectual—becoming a lived experience that transforms both your practice and teaching.
You will leave with a greater understanding of all aspects of a yoga practice, both on and off the mat, and the confidence to teach accessible, well rounded, and unique yoga classes.

After taking Marsha’s course, I feel 100% confident to teach. Even if I never taught yoga as a result of this training, what I have learned about myself, my beliefs, and how my yoga practice can shape and guide me, is worth the investment in time and funds.
