500hr teacher training certification

Our 300hr training is an advanced teacher training for those who already hold a 200hr teacher training certificate. You will leave with a 500hr yoga alliance registered certificate upon completing the requirements of our training. We are rooted in traditional yoga, following the Akhila Yoga Method created by Ruslan Kleytman. The Akhila Yoga Method is a systematic approach to spiritual evolution based on the key principles of classical yoga. Akhila Yoga is an open, organic, adaptive, scientific method founded in Vedic tradition and wisdom. All facets of practice are explored to create a holistic experience.

In this 300hr training, you will learn how to creatively sequence and grow your practice into exploring a full range of motion, dive deep into Ayurvedic principles and learn how to apply them to teaching and healing, become a more dynamic teacher by deepening your understanding of movement therapy in order to reach a wider and more complex student audience, delve into the deeper aspects of the energetics of yoga, and ultimately learn to integrate and embody what it means to be a yogi, i.e. taking your practice off the mat and using yogic philosophy to enhance your relationships and community.

Classes will be held at the Arkansas Yoga Collective studio located at 1521 Merrill Drive, Suite D135 Little Rock, AR 72211.
