FORMAT
The training program is offered in a 12 month format + Internship as a set of 12 core in person modules with a 40 hour internship program that fully integrates all of the learning and supports students in applying the teachings in “real world” environments. While each of the modules focuses on a specific area, all program content combines the latest scientific research into the effects of yoga on improved health, transformation and well-being.
In partnership with NoDa Yoga, the Center for Integrative Yoga Studies is now offering the certification program over 12 months with a well-discounted option to pay in full for the entire program.
Internship Program: To receive Yoga Alliance 300 Hour Certification, each student must complete a 40 hour internship. The internship will consist of case studies and a capstone project. Internship is $500 and is to be paid directly to your mentor as internship begins. Each student will have four months to complete.
*Internship fee is separate from the tuition fee; no matter if you choose the pay in full or per module basis payment option
CERTIFICATIONS & REQUIREMENTS
This training is designed for yoga practitioners, teachers and health care providers who want to specialize in applying yoga’s therapeutic benefits to improve well-being and quality of life. Successful graduates of this program may apply with the Yoga Alliance as an RYT-500 and will be certified as an Advanced Level Yoga Teacher with a speciality in the applications and benefits of therapeutic yoga.
Students who successfully complete either pathway (pay in full or modular-based) are qualified to register as a Registered Yoga Teacher with the Yoga Alliance as an RYT500. Students must be graduates of a Yoga Alliance approved 200-hour teacher training in order to register with the Yoga Alliance as RYT200 or RYT500. Students currently enrolled in a Yoga Alliance approved 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training may attend the 300-hour programs, but must meet the Yoga Alliance requirements in order to register with the organization as an RYT under any certification. In order to meet admissions into the CIYS 300-hour training, students must be enrolled in or graduated from a 200-hour Yoga Alliance approved program.
*Pursuant to Yoga Alliance and International Association of Yoga Therapists rules and regulations, no graduate shall deem themselves a “yoga therapist,” but rather an advanced level yoga teacher with a speciality in the benefits and applications of therapeutic yoga.
