5. Do I need to have a background in Yoga?
In order to begin the program, we strongly recommend that you have a personal practice. The more background you have in attending classes or practicing on your own, the more you will be able to help and teach others. It is a prerequisite to have taken some Yoga classes or to have established your own personal practice.

The program is a total of five courses which equal 13 credits. It could be completed in as little as one semester (if sufficient enrollment allows all the classes to be offered).

8. Is the program recognized by the Yoga Alliance?
We are currently working with the Yoga Alliance to have our 200 hours of training meet the Alliance's guidelines for certification.
