300 Hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Certification

Have you reached a certain level of expertise in teaching yoga and are now looking for an advanced training that focuses on teaching you how (not what) to teach?
Are you interested in philosophy concepts taught by various lineages of yoga and are a discussion-based learner who likes to try things on and ask more questions?
Are you the sort of person who seeks to earn the seat of the teacher and are looking for the next chapter of your teaching journey?
Do you value Authenticity, Confidence, Inspiration, and Commitment? (You're in the right place)

What is happening? The backstory of yoga is deep, wide, and expanding rapidly in every direction. It would take more than a lifetime to explore even one lineage, and yet there are teacher trainings popping up on every corner, with lead instructors with shallow experience. Several lineages of yoga have root teachers harkening the darkness of this modern time, laden with wars, poverty, disease, and despair. They aim to flood the world with as many people who know a little bit of something about yoga, to support these difficult times. What better tools could you have on the battlefield of life than those offered by the philosophical traditions of yoga? It is a hopeful, helpful thing to have so many yoga teachers with 200 hours of training under their belts offering yoga in detention centers, schools, hospitals and supporting those who risk their lives to save others. Among those teachers, a few will feel the calling to take an additional step. To better prepare the next generation of teachers to do a little better than simply the boot camp study they learned. (We'll bet you're one of those teachers)

Our aim at Meta is to instill value-based teachings to support teachers who desire to train others. There is a unique skill set required to convey ancient lessons to modern audiences. This is the skill we offer in our Advanced Yoga Teacher Certification core curriculum. The benefit of yoga is less about touching your toes or sticking a handstand and more about your perspective on the world. In addition to learning some of the basic concepts of yoga, you will learn how to teach them in combination with your own skills, interests and experiences. Broken into two parts, core and electives, our desire is to give you both the tools to find the great teacher within you and give you the flexibility to explore topics that are the most interesting and supporting to your evolution. Each student will also present a capstone project based on their independent reading and research as a pathway to specialization on their path. Time working on capstone projects counts towards 20 hours of the total training. All work must be completed within (4) years and could be completed in one year.

CORE MODULES

Our (4) core modules, co-facilitated by Kari Kwinn + Kimberly Ghorai, are required. Each is offered once per year and can be taken in any order. They compile the essential components that we believe can help you step closer towards your next level in teaching yoga.

* AUTHENTICITY * CONFIDENCE * INSPIRATION * COMMITMENT *

Together, these modules will compile 160 hours of your total training. They are scheduled based off requests from interested students to fit the schedule needs on an as-need-basis. Click on the links below each module image to request for one to be scheduled.

ELECTIVES

We work hard to bring you a variety of topics, teachers, hours and offerings all months of the year. Explore our upcoming elective options below. Mix and match to your heart’s content! All electives can be taken as stand-alone continuing education or credits towards your Advanced Yoga Teacher Certification with Meta.
