300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training

Citizen Yoga’s 300-hour teacher training program builds upon and enhances the tools gained from previous training and experiences in a way that recognizes a teacher’s potential to facilitate an educational and impactful class. Most students in the 300-hour program are actively teaching or have intentions to begin teaching.

Highlights of the Citizen Yoga 300-hour training include:

• Rolling admission, new students are always joining the program throughout the year.

• Hybrid format – all modules are offered via a combination of in-studio + online

• New Immersive Curriculum – immersive weekends allow participants to dive deep into their learning and finish their 300HR certification in as little as 18 months. Participants are required to complete one 300hr credited training at Citizen every 3 months in order to maintain active enrollment status.

• Access to Citizen teachers + guest teachers from across the nation

• Connection with peer yoga teachers from across Michigan + beyond

Our 300-hour program is a self-paced program. Trainings can range from 2-hour workshops to 20-hour weekend immersions. Most workshops are available in a hybrid format, both in-studio and livestream. We offer an average of 15 hours per month, with many months offering significantly more. All qualifying workshops are listed on the calendar at the bottom of this page.
