300 hour training is a cumulative & module based program.
Students may choose from various online or in-person courses over a maximum span of 3 years. Students enrolling in the 300 hour program must completed a previous 200 hour RYT certification from either AYA or another accredited yoga school prior to the start of their modules.

*Students who have completed their 200 hour RYT with a yoga school other than AYA must complete the Awakening Yoga 20 hour Immersion course as a bridge program to learn the AY vinyasa method which will be reference in subsequent modules.
How often are new modules offered?
Is there a certain order I need to take the modules in?
Are these also eligible for Continuing Education hours?
How long will this program take me to complete?
Must I attend in person or can I complete the whole training online?
Online modules are released throughout each year. In-person modules happen multiple times per year in varying locations.
Our goal is to continually provide high quality, up to date education for yoga teachers and students. We believe a hybrid module that provides online access to learning as well as options for those able to attend in-person is the most effective, balance, and sustainable way to integrate knowledge.
