​
This globally recognised qualification is led by me, Nikki Cassap, with over 20 years in the industry and with 600 hours of attended teacher trainings . This diploma will give the student the ability, confidence and knowledge teach anywhere around the world, to sequence classes in a fun, creative and dynamic way that is individual to them. 

Affiliated with Yoga Alliance International & Yoga Alliance Professionals, the student will have insurance cover and membership to help them get started on this life changing journey throughout the course, which will also be there to support them as they make their way to being a yoga teacher.

With over 200 contact hours and mentoring throughout, you will have a truly personal teacher training experience on your teacher training journey, here in Devon. 

2023 YTT
With 2022 training now full, I have dates confirmed for 2023 starting in January 2023. This 200hr Teacher Training program will run over 10 months, with the first weekend starting Saturday 14 - Sunday 15 January 2023

​The course modules will consist of:

• Learning the 8 groups of asana; how to teach, sanskrit, benefits, modification, progressions, contraindications
• Pranayama, mudra, kriya, bandha techniques, methods and benefits
• Students will learn a variety of chants
• Yoga history and philosophy included in sacred yogic texts
• Anatomy and physiology of yoga
• Sequencing in classes, being a yoga teacher and the business of yoga
• Approximately 200 hours of teacher student contact, mentoring throughout and support after qualification

At the end of the course the newly qualified teachers will be able to teach hatha yoga & vinyasa flow yoga classes in creative, fun, safe and practical way. They will be able to use their knowledge of pranayama, mudra, chants and meditation to teach individual classes of any of the above so they have a wide repertoire of yoga class offerings. 
They will have the confidence to design their own sequences in asana and be creative in their style of class.
