Why Choose Our Program?
1
Practical Teaching Skills
This training is specifically tailored to teach you how to teach a vinyasa style class. The essence of the program revolves around hands-on teaching experience. From day one and every subsequent day of the program, you will actively practice and refine your teaching skills through the use of your voice, hands-on assists, sequencing and hours of practice teaching with your peers.
2
Comprehensive Mentoring and Coaching
This training offers a comprehensive mentoring and coaching program that begins a week before the program starts and continues throughout the training, extending even after its completion. We go beyond simply providing a certificate – active coaching support remains available for months after the training concludes.
3
Small Group Size
The group size is limited to guarantee each participant receives significant individual attention and coaching. Our aim is not to mass-certify yoga teachers, but rather to foster future light workers, healers, and educators who are passionate about elevating the vibration of our communities. Whether you decide to teach locally or extend your impact beyond, your skill set will distinguish you apart from the multitude of yoga teachers.
4
Immersion Style Learning
​Complete your certification through a one-week immersion followed by three weekend sessions. While some trainings extend over 6-8 months with sessions scheduled exclusively on weekends, our approach encourages a focused, distraction-free week for personal immersion followed by application during the subsequent three weekends. Based on our experience, an undisturbed immersion proves to be a key factor in fostering effective and enduring learning.
5
Opportunity to Apprentice
Depending on the program's location, there might be opportunities to apprentice at the studio or with Nikki. This presents an invaluable opportunity for new teachers to kickstart their teaching careers.
6
Active Participation
Active participation is essential in this training. Unlike some programs where passive attendance may be enough to pass, our teacher training manual stands out by actively supporting your participation. You won't just receive a book to memorize; instead, you'll be able to build upon our manual that resonates with your perspective, allowing for a deeper understanding and practical application in your teaching.
7
Lifetime Access to The Program
Upon completing this program, you gain the privilege to attend future 200hr programs with Nikki or Jennifer as many times as you desire. Our graduates often drop in to refresh their understanding of the foundations, offer mentorship to new trainees, and actively contribute to the community.
8
Experienced Faculty
In contrast to other programs that feature a roster of guest lecturers, having a primary lead teacher enables a student-teacher mentoring approach tailored to your individual strengths and areas of growth.
As the primary lead teacher, Nikki is a 500hr E-RYT and has been teaching vinyasa/power vinyasa for the past 20 years. She has been leading this YTT program for groups and private individuals since 2012. She received her first 200hr level training with Baptiste Yoga Institute and also holds certification in Advanced Vinyasa, Ashtanga Yoga with Tim Miller (100hr), Yoga Tune Up, Functional Anatomy, Functional Range Conditioning, and Kids yoga.
​
In addition to the personalized guidance from Nikki, you'll receive continuous support from her team of teachers and assistants throughout the program and beyond.
Meet Your Lead Trainer
Nikki Wong
Nikki, a 500hr Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (ERYT) with 20 years of experience in teaching vinyasa/power yoga, has trained nearly 100 teachers through her 200hr vinyasa yoga teacher training program. Similar to her eclectic approach to teaching classes, which combines traditional poses with functional movements, isometrics, and creative sequencing to offer diverse ways for students to connect with their bodies, her teacher training program follows suit. With a philosophy centered on "teaching from love," Nikki's program aims to guide individuals toward becoming their best selves, whether their goal is to teach yoga or deepen their personal practice.
Her trainees have gone to teach yoga across the world, opened their own studios and some who started the program with no intentions to teach are passionately sharing the practice with others. Additionally, some attribute their career advancements to the personal growth fostered by Nikki's program, recognizing its profound impact on their professional journey.
