About the Program:
The YogaMedCo 200 hour Chair Yoga Teacher Training will teach you the foundations of teaching yoga on and of the mat with Dr. Carmack's evidence-informed YogaMedCo method.
Unlike many programs that do not offer feedback on your teaching before your test-out, our program includes teaching labs where you receive support and feedback weekly. You can complete the program in as little as 12 weeks, or up to 52 weeks depending on your schedule. (Although most students finish in 3-4 months, you can apply for an extension past 1 year if needed).
The program is completed has 4 requirements:
14 Hours Yoga Coach Training (Self-paced, on demand learning)
When you enroll you will be immediately enrolled in the YogaMedCo Yoga Coach training, which serves as the first 14 hours of self-paced training. This training serves as your prerequisite for continued yoga teacher training, and will teach you the foundations of the YogaMedCo method. The Yoga Coach training is valued at $97, and is included in your tuition.
84 Hours of Yoga Practice (Self-paced, on demand daily practices)
In this phase you will complete 90 hours of personal yoga practice in the YogaMedCo Yoga for Stress Relief Course. This course includes chair-based practices as well as mat-based practices, to deepen your understanding of postures, breath practices and yoga philosophy (through weekly journaling). The program is designed to take 1 hour per day for 12 weeks; however you can complete the program in a shorter or longer time window based on your scheduling and preferences.
Please note that we welcome all bodies, and we do not expect teacher trainees to be able to perform every chair pose. What we will be looking for is your ability to adapt the postures you need to adapt by applying the strategies you will learn in the YogaMedCo method, as taught in the course.
66 Hours of Yoga Teacher Training(Self-paced, on demand daily practices)
In this phase you will complete a series of online modules that explore yoga teaching strategies, yoga philosophy and teaching case studies. You can complete this after the Yoga Coach training, and either concurrently with or after the Yoga for Stress Relief practice program.
36 Hours of Live Teaching Labs (Tuesday Evenings 7 - 9 pm EST)
Concurrent to the above self-paced work, you will attend live classes weekly Tuesdays at 7 pm EST or Fridays at noon EST. You must attend at least 36 hours of live weekly teaching labs online to earn your certificate of completion from our program, and your RYT 200 eligibility with Yoga Alliance. In these sessions, you will be assessed on different teaching skills weekly and offered feedback.
After you have completed all modules you will be scheduled for a live test-out. This process requires submission of a video demonstration of teaching, a self-assessment of this video, and a one-on-one review session with our program director.
