How long does it take to train to be a yoga instructor?

Updated: Jul 22, 2023


I was invited to write an article for OM magazine’s special June 2023 Teacher Training edition and in it explained that for a proper, professionally-valued yoga teacher, you definitely need a 12 month course.


My feeling is that shorter, intensive courses are great at developing your personal practice but better perhaps when you already have had a good number of years as a dedicated student or having previously done a longer training.


Teaching yoga really well needs to be the essence of who you are; an understanding that is the core of what your life is about. There are no questions or doubts or not completely sure; it’s spontaneous and flows from you like osmosis – wonderful really – which takes time.’
