Who is this for?

At Yoga Health Academy, our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training program is specifically designed for healthcare professionals who are passionate about holistic health and well-being and want to teach yoga or expand their personal practice.

This program is ideal for:

  • Mental Health Providers: Enhance your understanding of therapeutic practices by learning yoga's body-based and stress-reduction techniques for greater emotional balance and resilience.
  • Medical Professionals: Including nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and physicians. Deepen your understanding of holistic care. Our training equips you with tools to promote physical and mental wellness, enriching your patient interactions and care strategies.

  • Occupational Therapists (OTs): Enhance your ability to support clients in achieving their rehabilitation goals through mindfulness and movement.
