Teacher Training FAQ
What happens when I register? What’s the timeline? When does the course begin?
Signing up early is the best way to guarantee a seat in the live portion of the 300 hour yoga teacher training course. Program space is limited in order to ensure high-touch live calls. When you register for 300/500-Hour YTT, you get access to the advanced teacher training video content right away.
Begin your studies IMMEDIATELY, the moment you enroll. Start all of this coursework (it’s deep!) before your live calls begin. It’s ideal to have all of Module 1 completed and ideally half of Module 2 (so up to [Mod 2] 2.8) before joining the live calls.
When are the 300-Hour the live calls? When do live calls start?
Calls run for 6-months and you can start in June or January. We request YTT students who are pursuing certification to be live at one of these three call times (so Monday, Wednesday, or Friday). Calls are 90-120 minutes in length.
- Mondays @ 11:30am PST / 2:30pm EST / 6:30pm GMT / 8:30pm CET
- Wednesdays @ 4pm PST / 7pm EST / 11am AEDT (Thursdays)
- Fridays @ 9am PST / 12pm EST / 4pm GMT
Similar to the 200-Hour program, we request that you commit to be live at the same time each week so you can experience the live coaching, mastermind groups, and mentorship that underpin this program (and we provide a variety of live call times to support a global student base). Prepare for these calls to be highly interactive with on-the-spot business coaching as well as deep discussions about best practices for yoga teachers (in-studio and online).
Does this online training program give me a 300-Hour RYT certification with Yoga Alliance?
Yes. We are a Registered Yoga School with Yoga Alliance, ID 197303.
Graduates are eligible to register with Yoga Alliance at the 300-Hour level. Once you then log 100 hours of teaching experience, you are 500-Hour RYT.
Can I register as 500-Hour RYT with this program?
Yes. Teachers can pay to register as a registered yoga teacher (RYT) 500 once they have successfully completed 500-hours of training through Yoga Alliance approved schools. The 500 hours of training can either come from one school OR can be a combination of a 200-hour training plus 300 hours of advanced training from a different school. Uplifted Yoga is an RYS 200 and 300-Hour school. After submitting your 300-Hour degree, you must log 100 teaching hours with YA. After that, you are eligible to pay Yoga Alliance for the RYT 500 designation.
As of 2020, and thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Yoga Alliance now approves our online teacher training program. You can read more about how Yoga Alliance now approves online training programs and determine if you would like to apply for registered yoga teacher (RYT) status upon completion of the course.
The Yoga Alliance webpage that contains this designation information can be found here.
Keep in mind, that Yoga Alliance is a private, nonprofit entity that is optional for teachers to pay to join. Yoga Alliance is not sanctioned by any local, state, or federal government. Paying Yoga Alliance to be listed in their directory is not a requirement to get insurance or be legally protected while teaching yoga.
Is it all online?
Yes! That’s what our students love – the quality, convenience and community we’ve created, with high-touch live calls that make the experience feel even more intimate than many in-person retreats and trainings out there.
How long does it take for me to earn my certification?
The live call component takes 6 months to complete. We suggest signing up at least 2 months prior to live calls starting to watch all the pre-recorded, core content, before live training starts. If you can register earlier, even better!
What are the requirements for graduation?
To graduate from the 300-Hour program you must:
- Complete the final teaching practicum by sending in a 20-min video of you teaching a themed yoga class using the material presented in training (Chakra-themed flow, progression/regression flow, injury management flow – more details provided at the end of training)
- Complete all journaling exercises, quizzes, and homework outlined in the manual
- Submit your live website (with a sales offer on it) for review
- Complete a 40 day practice
- Complete an ethical statement
- Teach 5 yoga classes (2 of which must be privates), paid for by your own students
- Yes, this course requires you to get into action!
Can I take this course just for personal reasons or just to deepen my yogic knowledge?
Of course! And we have amazing yogis who do just that. Fulfilling the graduation requirements are required to earn your certificate. You may choose to forego or delay certification at this time and simply enjoy this deep, enriching experience.
What is the basic foundation of knowledge needed for this 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training?
Most 200-Hour programs cover the same foundational topics, including yogic philosophy according to the Yoga Sutras, teaching methodology, anatomy and physiology, the yamas and niyamas, and a deep understanding of at least one yoga style (ie Ashtanga yoga, hatha yoga, Vinyasa flow, yoga nidra, or yin yoga). Many programs will also include the study of certain texts like the Bhagavad Gita, Hatha Yoga Pradipika, or Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. Though an RYT certification may include these topics in the training, they are not always covered in-depth. For this reason, we require either an Uplifted™ YTT-200 or Bridge certificate before beginning this 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training course.
How is the curriculum different from other 300/500 Hour YTT offerings?
The Uplifted™ 300-Hour Program offers the highest-quality yoga education with world-renowned experts FUSED with the unique tools, techniques and teachings to succeed as an entrepreneur in the wellness industry. It’s the only 300/500 Hour training (that I’m aware of) that places an equal emphasis on both business AND yoga. This training is for teachers who want to:
- Charge more & serve more by focusing on their mindset and entrepreneurial skills
- Deepen their expertise in anatomy, sequencing, the subtle body, and injury management by studying at home
- Meet both their lifestyle and revenue goals as a health and wellness professional
- Choosing the best 300-hour yoga teacher training course depends on what your personal goals are and what areas you’d like to specialize in. The Uplifted 300-Hour Program helps you build your yoga career.
What’s the time commitment?
In a given week you may be asked to:
- Watch 4 hours of pre-recorded video content
- Attend one 90-minute live call and watch one 45-minute call replay
- Complete 1-hour of homework
- Enjoy 3 – 5 hours of yoga practices
This assumes you began watching at least two modules of the pre-recorded material before live training begins. Our programs are designed with full-time employees and parents in mind. You set the pace. You could choose to watch 8 hours a day of pre-recorded video training content before the live calls start OR spread it out over a longer period of time. The syllabus lets you know exactly what material is being covered on each live call, so you can come to the live call prepared.
Note: The sooner you register, the sooner you can get ahead on the coursework before the live portion of training begins.
Can this YTT help me create an online yoga course?
YES! While most yoga teacher training courses simply prepare you to teach yoga at a yoga studio, this 300-hour online yoga teacher training course is specifically designed to prepare you to teach yoga online. My goal is to help you bring the practice of yoga to as many people as possible without having to sacrifice your own personal lifestyle goals. The yoga teacher certification that you earn through this course helps you become a yoga entrepreneur, just as much as it deepens your understanding of yoga.
In this course, I help YOU create a business plan to grow your business and brand online. This training program will give you the opportunity to explore your business ideas and fully understand the business of yoga. The yoga industry is shifting to the online space, so join the thousands of other business owners who are already making money online.
What about Kundalini Yoga? Does the 300-Hour cover how to become a Certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher?
The concept of Kundalini energy is integrated heavily into the curriculum, but this is not a Kundalini Yoga Certification program. We do have “Kundalini Yoga” themed live calls. These detail how Brett’s deepened her own Kundalini practice through nuanced alignment cues and advanced kriyas. This is an excellent opportunity to connect with like-minded teachers around Kundalini yoga.
If you’re interested in a Kundalini specific YTT, check out Brett’s 200-Hour Kundalini University Yoga Teacher Training.
What happens at the end of the program? Will I still have access to materials?
Yes! Your yoga practice will continue long after this advanced yoga teacher training finishes, so you will have access to everything for the rest of your life. The video content, live calls with Brett, manual, and journaling exercises are always available to you.
Not only that, but you can also continue to receive compassionate support through the 300-Hour community where you can ask any questions you have about advanced asana, yoga philosophy, pranayama, teaching method, how to run a yoga retreat, yoga sequencing, business practices… anything at all! We are dedicated to your success!
