2027 Yoga Teacher Training

Traditionally, yoga was designed to be a health and wellness practice that was accessible to people of all ages, with all kinds of bodies. Our distinctive 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training program is based on the teachings of Krishnamacharya. In it, you’ll learn how to practice and teach traditional yoga that is inclusive and accessible for every body.
The Krishnamacharya tradition is the oldest of the modern styles of yoga, and it is unique in that:
- Mindfulness is integrated in the practice through the relationship between breath and movement
- It is a comprehensive tradition that truly addresses the health of the body, mind, and spirit
- The teachings are directly linked with the ancient yoga philosophy texts
- The instruction (postures, breathing, meditation, etc.) is offered in a way that is comfortable, accessible, and beneficial for the student
This program is designed for sincere yoga students who are interested in deepening their understanding of yoga and who may or may not be interested in teaching. Yoga Teacher Training inevitably brings about deep personal reflection and growth - your purpose and goals may change throughout the program, and that is perfectly ok.
You will learn:
- How to deepen your personal practice
- Anatomy & Physiology

Round Rock Yoga’s 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program is based on the Krishnamacharya tradition of yoga, as learned by studio founder Zelinda at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in Chennai, TN, India.
The Krishnamacharya tradition emphasizes the value of the relationship between the student and the teacher. Our small class size of 15 students allows us to get to know each student personally. If you are ready to deepen your study of yoga, we recommend applying early to secure your spot.
