EMME YOGA

2015 Teacher Training/Immersion

General Information

SSY proudly presents our first Yoga Teacher Training and Immerson starting January 2014.

We are offering a 200 hour yoga teacher training certification registered by the American Yoga Alliance over the course of 7 months from January to August 2014.

If you only want to immerse yourself deeper into the subject of yoga and go beyond the regular class offerings, you will be able to participate in a Yoga Immersion, which will give you the yoga knowledge teachers learn without needing to attend the classes on teaching techniques.
