How the training works
All videos are pre-recorded and so the course is entirely self-paced. The material is available by registration on the Teachable platform. The instructional videos can only be watched within the course itself, and you will have lifetime access to all of the material. There will be some downloadable PDFs, some audio lessons, and a workbook through the course.
There'll also be one live one-on-one session. Yoga Bliss can organize a session with each student that fits their schedule.
The minimum duration is 7 days. You will only be eligible to count the hours toward 200-hour teacher training if this online version is completed before December 30, 2022, and you join one of Yoga Bliss' future dates for the remaining 100 hours.
