FAQS

What will you learn?
Rather than learning one set style or sequence, this program explores the world of yoga  and encourages you to find your own unique voice, style or focus area.  You will learn Asana, Meditation, Philosophy, Pranayama, Alignment, Sequencing, Sanskrit, Yoga Anatomy, and more.
You will practice teaching in each weekend session to gain practical experience.
Session Focus
Each weekend offers a focus designed to bring you deeper into your practice and help you more clearly express the art of teaching.  All weekends will have each of the following components in addition to the weekend theme: Sanskrit, Anatomy, Philosophy, Asana, Meditation, Pranayama.  Additional specific key elements will be introduced each weekend.
Session Content
You might be concerned that it’s all asana. You might be concerned that it’s all sitting and listening. Don’t panic! Sessions alternate between up-tempo periods of asana practice and contemplative periods of group discussion, meditation, and pranayama.
Who Can Attend?
Anyone who has been practicing yoga regularly for at least one year is welcome to apply.  Please also note that during the training we do require that you commit to taking at least 1 classes per week at Darling Yoga, either in-studio, virtually via Zoom or through our on-demand class library.

I am so grateful to Emily Darling and Christy Burnette for their transformational Yoga Teacher Training program. The training greatly deepened my personal yoga practice and prepared me to share yoga with others. I feel ready to begin teaching and also inspired and committed to continuing my own study and practice of yoga as a forever student of this ancient practice.

The Darling Yoga teacher-training program offers a well-rounded approach to learning. They do a great job of developing teacher awareness regarding safety in poses, in-depth breath-work, meditation techniques, use of props, importance of workshops, and even conscious music selection is discussed. Highly recommend!!

Darling Yoga was the perfect place to get my yoga teacher training. Christy's knowledge of anatomy and yoga is superb, while Emily provides the nurturing and spirituality that I've come to love about my yoga practice. Their year-long program also offers you ample time to digest the information and put it into real-life action, and it also allows you a full year to develop meaningful friendships with your fellow trainees. I highly recommend Darling Yoga for YTT!

​The program being a year long gave each student the time to absorb and reflect on what was learned each month. I felt like the goal of the program was to teach yoga not as just a physical practice, but to learn it from the inside out with all of the yamas and niyamas incorporated as well. The instructors each have their own strengths and together teach a solid yoga foundational program. If I were to take yoga training all over again, I would repeat this program.

I was beyond thrilled to find a school and program that truly taught the essence of yoga, the full 8-limbed path with accompanying philosophical and spiritual precepts, while also providing clear, practical and concise methods for teaching. I truly could not give this training a higher recommendation. Thank you, Emily and Christy!

​YTT at Darling Yoga was such an amazing experience. I would take it again and again and I am sure each time the experiences would be even richer. I learned so much and loved every moment. It was challenging and pushed me to grow but in an amazing way. Just incredible.

Darling Yoga teacher training was such a wonderful experience in many ways! Emily and Christy have a wealth of knowledge of Yoga, and passed it on to all of us in a loving and interesting environment. I was challenged, and yet couldn't wait for the next YTT weekend! I can't imagine any yoga training that could be better than this. We all learned so much about the history of Yoga, proper alignment, incredible pranayama, and formed lasting friendships with our teachers, and with each other. I am very grateful to Darling Yoga for helping me deepen my own practice, and giving me the tools I needed to pay it forward to my students.

I am very grateful to have done teacher training at Darling Yoga. I feel that I learned much about the physical principles of yoga, techniques for effective yoga teaching, and the dimensions of yoga as a spiritual practice. The instructors are knowledgable, caring, and encouraging. This was a wonderful experience that helped me grow in my yoga practice and teaching!
