Testimonial:
Last year I made the best decision to do yoga teacher training with Nikki. She is an inspiring teacher who fosters learning and growth with kindness.
From the start, she guided us through the yoga asana and anatomy in detail so that we may be equipped to teach safely and responsibly.
Although I found myself lacking confidence at times, Nikki teaches with compassion and has a skill for applying theory to practice.
Nikki's teaching is underpinned by a knowledge of both evidence-based science and traditional yogic philosophy and I would highly recommend her classes and teacher training.
YOGA TEACHER TRAINING 200 & 300 hr COURSE
This globally recognised qualification is led by me, Nikki Cassap, with over 20 years in the industry and with 900 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 Pros (formally 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 300 contact hours and mentoring throughout, you will have a truly personal teacher training experience on your teacher training journey, here in Devon.
2027 YTT
The course has grown from strength to strength from 2022 and I am so excited for the future of my yoga courses. I want to continually grow and expand the dynamic learning of this YTT, to certify enthusiastic, gifted teachers who will go out into the world and share their knowledge and love of yoga to all.
The course modules will consist of:
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.
What’s the difference between a 200 or 300 hour TT?
The 300hour will take a deeper and more complete look at pranyama, meditation and advanced asana. We will also have a much better and deeper focus on sequencing, incorporating anatomy.
A 200hr TT is your foundation, whereas a 300hr will help your feel a more confident and competent teacher going out in the world to teach.
