Lifetime access · Self-paced · Live online classes · Yoga Alliance pathway

Become a qualified yoga teacher without putting your life on hold.

Our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training combines the freedom of self-paced online learning with the connection, support and practical experience of live teaching.

You'll have lifetime access to a comprehensive curriculum covering anatomy, yoga history and philosophy, Patanjali's Eight Limbs, intelligent sequencing, safe cueing, teaching methodology and yoga ethics. Study at your own pace, wherever you are — whether you're fitting in a module during your lunch break or dedicating a weekend to your training.

Now including 30 hours of live online contact training

To meet the current Yoga Alliance RYS 200 synchronous learning requirement, our training now includes 30 hours of live, online classes. Yoga Alliance requires RYS 200 programmes to include a minimum of 30 synchronous hours, where teachers and students meet and interact in real time.

We've made this simple and flexible:

1 weekend = 15 live contact hours
2 weekends = 30 live contact hours

You simply need to attend two of our live training weekends to complete the required contact hours. We currently offer 8 live training weekends throughout the year, giving you plenty of opportunities to find dates that fit around your work, family and other commitments.

These live weekends are an important part of your training, giving you the opportunity to learn in real time, ask questions, practise teaching, receive guidance and connect with your tutors and fellow trainees.

Please note: attendance at two live training weekends is compulsory for completion of the full 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training.

What you'll study

Anatomy · Yoga History & Philosophy · Patanjali's Eight Limbs · Asana · Pranayama · Meditation · Sequencing · Safe Cueing · Teaching Methodology · Yoga Ethics · Professional Development · Practice Teaching

Upon successful completion of the full programme, including the required live training, you'll receive your 200-hour certificate from our Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS 200), enabling you to apply for registration as an RYT 200 with Yoga Alliance.

Study when it suits you. Join us live when it matters. Become the teacher you're ready to be.

What you’ll Learn.

  • ANATOMY

    Know the body. Teach with confidence.

    Understanding anatomy isn't just for physiotherapists — it's the foundation of safe, intelligent yoga teaching. In this module, you'll explore how the body moves, where it holds tension, and why no two bodies experience a pose the same way. From muscles and joints to the nervous system and breath mechanics, you'll build the knowledge to keep your students safe, supported, and progressing — and the confidence to adapt every class to the bodies actually in the room.

  • HISTORY & PHILOSOPHY

    Know where yoga comes from. Teach with depth.

    Yoga is thousands of years old — and understanding its roots changes everything about how you teach it. In this module, we travel through the rich history of yoga, from its ancient origins in India to the traditions and texts that shaped the practice we know today. You'll explore the key philosophical frameworks that underpin yoga, gaining a deeper appreciation for what you're sharing each time you step onto the mat — and the wisdom to bring that depth into every class.

  • THE EIGHT LIMBS OF PATANJALI

    Yoga is so much more than postures.

    Patanjali's Yoga Sutras offer a complete roadmap for living — and the Eight Limbs are at its heart. In this module, you'll move beyond the physical practice to explore yoga as a whole way of being. From the ethical foundations of the Yamas and Niyamas, through breathwork and sensory withdrawal, all the way to meditation and stillness — you'll discover a framework that doesn't just inform your teaching, but quietly transforms your life.

  • SEQUENCING

    A great yoga class doesn't happen by accident.

    The art of sequencing is what separates a forgettable class from one your students talk about all week. In this module, you'll learn how to build classes with intention — how to warm the body intelligently, create meaningful peaks, and bring students safely back to stillness. Whether you're teaching a dynamic vinyasa flow or a gentle restorative session, you'll leave with the skills to craft experiences that feel effortless for your students and deeply purposeful for you.

  • SAFE CUEING

    The right words at the right moment change everything.

    How you guide your students matters just as much as what you guide them into. In this module, you'll develop a confident, clear, and inclusive cueing voice — learning how to give instructions that are easy to follow, anatomically accurate, and genuinely empowering. You'll explore the balance between alignment cues and invitation, how to offer modifications without singling anyone out, and how to read a room so your words always land with care. Safe cueing isn't just a skill — it's how your students learn to trust you.

  • YOGA ETHICS

    Teach from integrity. Lead with heart.

    Being a yoga teacher carries a quiet responsibility — to your students, to the tradition, and to yourself. In this module, we explore what it means to show up with integrity in every aspect of your teaching life. From holding professional boundaries and creating inclusive, trauma-informed spaces, to understanding the ethics of adjustments, social media, and representing yoga's roots with respect — this module gives you the grounding to become not just a capable teacher, but a trustworthy one.

Why Pasithea Yoga Teacher Training?

  • What you'll gain

    Completing this training isn't just a career move.

    It might begin with a desire to teach yoga, deepen your own practice, or create a little more freedom in your working life. But somewhere along the way, it can become something much more personal.

    It's a quiet act of choosing yourself.

    It's never too late to learn something new, invest in yourself, follow a passion and see something through — even when life is busy, even when it's challenging, and even when there are a hundred other things asking for your attention.

    Because this isn't just about the certificate at the end. It's about the person you become along the way.

    By the end of your training, you'll have:

    A pathway to your Yoga Alliance RYT 200 credential
    Successfully completing a 200-hour training with a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS 200) allows you to apply for the RYT 200 credential with Yoga Alliance. Your training gives you a recognised foundation from which to begin teaching yoga in studios, gyms, wellness spaces and private settings, subject to the requirements of the places and locations where you choose to teach.

    A deep and meaningful foundation in yoga
    You'll explore anatomy, yoga philosophy, the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the Eight Limbs of Yoga, meditation, pranayama, intelligent sequencing, safe and effective cueing, teaching methodology, ethics and so much more. This isn't about memorising information for an exam — it's about developing an understanding you can actually bring into the teaching room.

    Personalised one-to-one support from Candice
    You're not simply handed a course and left to figure it out alone. Your assignments receive personalised one-to-one feedback from Candice, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, refine your understanding and build confidence as you progress. You'll have someone in your corner throughout your training.

    Lifetime access to your training
    There is no need to rush through your course just to meet an arbitrary deadline. Your online training materials are yours to return to, revisit and learn from again and again. Finished your anatomy module six months ago but want a refresher? Want to revisit sequencing before teaching your first class? It's all there when you need it.

    A community that continues beyond graduation
    Your training doesn't have to end when you receive your certificate. You'll have a place in our monthly Sangha calls, connecting with fellow Pasithea graduates and teachers from around the world. Come with questions, share what's happening in your teaching, talk through challenges or simply listen. Support, connection and no judgement.

    And perhaps most importantly… confidence.
    Not the loud, performative kind. The quiet confidence that comes from knowing you've put in the work. From standing up and teaching your first class. From realising that you do know more than you thought you did. From doing something that once felt slightly out of reach — and discovering that you were capable of it all along.

  • How it works

    How it works

    Our 21 comprehensive modules are delivered in focused, bite-sized sessions that build your knowledge and confidence step by step.

    You can work through the online training at your own pace, in your own time. Between modules, you’ll have assignments to complete in your own time — a little reading, a little reflection, a little practice.

    Nothing overwhelming.
    Everything intentional.

    And because this training has been specifically designed for real life — not an idealised version of it — every element is built to fit around your schedule, not fight against it.

    Your live training weekends

    Alongside your self-paced online study, you'll complete 30 hours of live, online contact training as part of the 200-hour programme. Yoga Alliance currently requires RYS 200 programmes to include a minimum of 30 synchronous hours, where teachers and students learn and interact in real time.

    We've made this simple:

    1 weekend = 15 live contact hours
    2 weekends = 30 live contact hours

    We offer 8 live training weekends throughout the year, so you can choose two weekends that work for you.

    These weekends are an important part of your training. They give you the opportunity to learn directly with your teachers, ask questions, practise teaching, receive feedback and connect with your fellow trainees.

    Attendance at two live training weekends is compulsory to complete the full 200-hour training.

    Take your time. Find your rhythm. You've got this.

    And our support doesn't end when your training does…

    We believe becoming a yoga teacher is about so much more than completing a course.

    That's why you'll also have access to our free monthly Sangha calls, where you can connect with fellow teachers and our teaching team, ask questions, share experiences and receive ongoing support and guidance.

    A space to connect, reflect and keep growing — with support, community and absolutely no judgement.

    Study at your own pace. Join us live when it matters. And know that you're never really teaching alone.
