​Using the Afterpay link on our website, you can set up a payment plan that suits your budget. 

We teach vinyasa flow (a style that links movement with breath). Graduates of our program are prepared to confidently teach this style of class. 

Absolutely. We have many students who have taken the training just to deepen their understanding of yoga and enrich their personal practice 

Upon successful completion of the training, you can apply for certification from Yoga Alliance. Yoga Alliance is a separate entity from Shakti Studio, and charges fees associated with membership.

Our graduates cover a vast range of ages. We recommend at least high school age as a minimum (we have had many successful high-school age graduates over the years who have gone on to teach in college and beyond, finding their skill as a yoga teacher to be a lifelong trade).

Classes meet on weekends from September 12 to December 14, with the exception of Halloween and Thanksgiving weekends. 

Unless otherwise noted, classes meet 

Friday 6-9pm

Saturday and Sunday 10-4pm

Our 200 hour Advanced Studies Teacher Training manual is included with tuition.

There are 2 additional books, both available for purchase on Amazon:

The Key Muscles of Yoga by Ray Long

Light on Yoga by BKS Iyengar

You will need a yoga mat, and to dress appropriately for the practice of yoga. We have blocks, straps, bolsters and blankets at the studio, but you are welcome to bring your own props to class.

To get the most out of the training, missing classes unless absolutely necessary is discouraged.  However if you miss we will work with you to make up the material with a qualified teacher. Depending on the material missed, there may be a charge (determined by what was missed, and on a case-by-case basis). 

Certain portions of the philosophy/Tantra training are unique and content-heavy, and can only be made up in a future training.

Cancellations prior to August 27th will be refunded the full tuition, less the $500 non-refundable deposit. (No cash refunds will be issued.)

No refunds or credits are available for cancellation after August 27 and prior to the start of the teacher training course.

However, the tuition may be transferred to another student with a $50 processing fee; or, any remaining balance may be transferred to a future Teacher Training program (We charge a $100 admin fee for this option.)

Cancellations after the training starts are non-refundable.

Shakti Studio reserves the right to modify this policy without prior notice, at its sole discretion as deemed necessary. 

Yes, we will offer the option to attend some portions of the training via livestream.

Having a regular yoga practice (2-3 times per week minimum) when starting the training  is strongly recommended. 

We recommend you establish a practice 2 to 3 times per week for at least 3 months, then enroll in a future training.

If you have injuries or conditions, make sure you have clearance from your doctor to participate in the training to determine if it is appropriate for you.

In general, the training is designed to help students understand how to develop greater strength and flexibility, and how to enhance your practice within the context of your own body.

We are working on a schedule now, and tentatively are planning on late Winter/early Spring 2026.
