Ever wonder on how yoga teachers came to what they are right now? I mean you just don’t get up one day and just decide to open up your own yoga studio without any knowledge at all whatsoever on what you are doing right? There is really something that you need to go through before you become a teacher in the first place. As we all know that teachers where once students just like we are.
These are people that have become so engorged in yoga decided that they will push the limits of their current knowledge of yoga and push it even higher. Or these are people that really want the profession of teaching yoga. Well either of the two reasons why they became teachers they really need to undergo training. Training that is looked over by the Yoga Alliance. It may sound something from Star Wars or something but trust me it’s the real thing.
The Yoga Alliance is responsible in administering all the training when it comes to teachers of yoga in the United States. They will look over your training and when they see fit you are awarded your certificate and power to teach yoga in the States. But the process is much easier said than done.
First you need to choose from either two hundred or five hundred hour courses that are offered by the organization. Then once you have chosen the right one you need to finish the said course and get your certificate. Depending on the hours you are enrolled to the course would run from two to nine months or even a year depending on your schedule. The more you spend time training for your course much faster you would finish and get your certificate.

Most people would always go for the easy two hundred hour courses for it would just be the logical way to teach as fast as they can. But for some people getting the additional 500 hours of training would be the real thing when it comes to teaching yoga. But then again it all comes down to what you want and what level of knowledge you want to absorb. The more time you spend in training the more you are embedded with all the knowledge you can have.
So once you get your certificate you are now considered a RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) So what now? Being a teacher you need to think outside the box, it doesn’t mean that when you have RYT on your name you will get a flock of students running your way. You need to reach out for your students, reach out and think outside the box. You know the studio isn’t only the place to teach yoga.
