HYBRID LEARNING

Location:  The comfort of your own home w/in person options for training, and one on one mentorship.  


Become an Ekah Yoga teacher during a pandemic, while in school, working around a full time job, from afar,  or from around the block.   Ekah Yoga's Co-op Training strives to be accessible , efficient, and intimate.  


At this time, all parts of the YTT 200hr will be offered online, but there will be options for in person trainings as well as flex options for those who need alternatives to a rigid schedule.  


If in person options are available to the group, we will plan for 2 in person trainings in March and June.  See schedule below. 


NOTE: What is training is NOT

This training is not a cookie cutter approach, and is not solely focused on ZOOM only or like platforms.  This program is very interactive, and our focus, even in the midst of a pandemic will be to provide students with one on one, or small group learning opportunities. 

You will have in person options for mentorship and live classes (outdoor, or very small indoor classes with masks required.) We will also focus on foundational learning, so you may walk on a stable platform, and leave with solidarity to enhance creative expression.  Foundations of Hatha, Vinyasa, Restorative, and Meditation will be woven into coursework alongside foundational philosophy, anatomy, methodology, and practicum.

Mission Statement

Every day at Ekah Yoga, our teachers are witness to the transformative and healing powers of our practice. We see it in our students. We see it in ourselves.  And we look forward to sharing this insight with you.  


Ekah’s Yoga School is dedicated to meeting you on this remarkable journey, infusing our wisdom, while meeting you on your unique pathway, and through yoga’s guiding light. Our Yoga Alliance certified RYT-200 and RYT-300 hour trainings provide essential curriculum for teachers and practitioners, including the history and philosophy of yoga, anatomy and the physiology in practice, working with special populations, & mindful nutrition in practice. We celebrate the mind body connection within ourselves and with each other. We look inward and reach outward. We explore effort, ease, and stillness. 


Our instructors bring knowledge and passion to the work at hand. Coursework is designed to be challenging, rewarding, personal, and interactive. Study with a 500hr experienced yoga teacher. Learn about mindful eating with a yoga teacher and registered dietitian. Experience our E-RYT staff teachers as they provide insight from different perspectives. We offer you the opportunity to infuse your own special interests or desired learnings into this training. Our teachers meet you where you are. Classes will be presented in a hybrid platform of in-person trainings, distance education, and recorded sessions for flexible, immersive learning. 

This training brings theory into practice. Students will emerge eager to share their knowledge and illuminate the way for others on the road of life.
