The 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is a substantial commitment of time, and attendance every weekend is required for a certificate at graduation, for both Yoga Alliance credential and Three Queens’ confidence in certifying you. With approval, we will consider up to 5 hours of non-consecutive excused absence. Entire weekend absences and anything more than 5 hours missed, the student will be responsible for making up the hours at their own expense with faculty. Three Queens does not provide make-up hours included in the tuition of Teacher Training.
-
The Six core modules will cycle every year as well as the Bridge to Three Queens Yoga and Teacher Mentoring Module elective. Other modules will evolve as students express interest in learning new things.
-
Each module is individually priced allowing you can pay as you go, with no complex upfront commitment.
We are so excited to welcome amazing faculty and noted subject matter experts!

This teacher training program is the training of my dreams. As a teacher first, then a business owner, I designed this training to meet the needs of today’s yoga teachers. Many of us know what it’s like to be overworked, burnt out, and broke trying to make a living in the yoga industry as yoga teachers.
My desire is to help create a more sustainable path for future generations of yoga teachers. I want to disrupt the yoga industry status quo so that yoga teachers are no longer hustling to barely make ends meet.
I’ve brought together my favorite leaders and experts to help you find your value, master your teaching skills, and make a living. Intentionally created to unlock each trainee’s growth potential, the Advanced Training does more than refine teaching; it challenges our relationship with yoga to cultivate a more sustainable relationship with the world.
Expect to be challenged with mentoring, real world business coaching and an actionable plan at graduation to take to the yoga market place.
This is your opportunity to take the next step in your yoga career.
