HYBRID INSTRUCTION BREAKDOWN
Over a period of 8 months, students will participate in the following:
In-Person – 36 hours
- 6 live training dates – In-person instruction with your trainer
Online Self-Paced Curriculum – 164 hours with your lead trainer, Mandy Lawson
WHAT TO EXPECT:
In addition to a focus on gentle Vinyasa Flow and Restorative Yoga styles, we will dive deep into the philosophy and true meaning of yoga.
Through live classroom time with your training group, pre-recorded lectures, reading, written assignments and personal exploration, you’ll leave this training with an understanding of the roots of yoga and how you can share the practice with others.
If you’ve ever thought yoga was just about the physical practice, this training will shift your perspective. While we’ll cover asana (postures) in depth—including how to teach and adapt them for different students—our real focus is on the deeper layers of yoga.
This training is designed to be approachable, empowering, and practical. No handstands or major yoga experience is required—just a passion for learning and a willingness to explore.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
Rebecca Vanech

B.S., M.A., RYT 200 | Owner of Blossom & Thrive | Health + Life Coach | Yoga Teacher
“After getting my Kids Yoga Certificate I decided to bring my love of yoga to adults as well, so I began looking for a 200 HR Yoga Teacher Training (YTT). Costa Yoga came highly recommended so I took a chance on it, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! This training was well organized, user friendly, and I was amazed by how much they were able to pack into this well-balanced training!! My trainers had warm and welcoming personalities and made themselves accessible throughout the training, but the best part was how well they were able to break down the material so anyone could understand it. I loved the balance between yogic philosophy and asana styles instructed, while really hitting home the importance of anatomy!! Thanks to Mandy and the Costa Yoga team I feel confident that I can design yoga classes around my students needs. Whether you’re just starting your yoga journey or looking to refresh your skills, I highly recommend training with Costa Yoga!”
