Submit your application Pay Your Deposit
Day Yoga's 300hr Teacher Training (300 additional hours to add to the 200hr) is an advanced program designed to be flexible so teachers with busy schedules can learn at their own pace, attending spaced out required modules in addition to electives. The program is on an open enrollment and students can sign up at anytime during the year. For most if will take about 2 years to complete but it's possible to complete sooner.
This training is for those who have previously completed a 200hr certification at Day Yoga or another Yoga Alliance recognized school, and will allow students to focus on specific areas of yoga of particular interest to them. Prior to beginning, enrollees will meet with the program coordinators to discuss options and their schedule for that year. In addition to the required modules, trainees can also choose to add up to one elective each year including Aerial Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Yin Yoga, Prenatal, Kids Yoga and more. Trainees are also required to attend up to one full day or full weekend local retreat prior to graduation. This is included in their tuition costs and covers meals and housing for the full weekend retreats.
Our excellent local and nationally recognized teachers and faculty will ensure that each student receives an advanced level of knowledge and furthered understanding in all areas of yoga education including physical and subtle anatomy and physiology, methodology, techniques, practice, philosophy, lifestyle and ethics.
Devon Schmidt, owner and founder of Day Yoga leads the 200hr, 300hr and 500hr programs. Some of our guest teachers and programs include Kristin Luna Ray, Matt Eschleman, Emily Kretzer, Elizabeth Silas, Anna Molgard and many more.
