“Committing to Yoga Loft Tampa's 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training felt overwhelming at first. But after just one week, I knew I could do it—and I was excited! I've practiced yoga for four years, but learning to teach it is a completely different experience. It's about so much more than poses. It's about understanding yourself, your body, embracing discomfort, and practicing radical acceptance. This journey is teaching me to show up for myself, grow through challenges, and ultimately help others do the same.”

Clips from the training. Sound, assists, standing poses, yin, twists & bends, and community yoga.
Sound bath
Meditation and sound healing, as it is taught in the training.
Hands-on assists
Intentional touch, with consent. How you ask, and how you do not.
Standing poses
The start of the asana deep dive. Feet, thighs, and what the cue is actually for.
Yin yoga
The slower form. Long holds, props, and the nervous system.
Twists, bends & hip openers
Taught in the training. A sequence focused on twists, bends, and opening the hips.
Community yoga
Every Saturday at the Ybor City Museum Garden. Part of the teacher training.
Philosophy
Gita, Upanishads, Yoga Sutras — enough to teach from, not a dissertation. You leave able to say why a class has a theme, and why that theme is not a slogan. We read the short passages that actually change how you cue, not the ones that look good on a syllabus.
Chakras
Seven centers, linked to asana and how you actually sequence a class. Not a color chart. You learn which postures wake which center, and how to build a class that has a spine instead of a pile of poses. Students feel the difference even if they never hear the word.
Anatomy
Physical and subtle body, so you can cue without guessing. Knees, shoulders, lumbar spine — the places people get hurt when a teacher is vague. You learn what to say, what to modify, and when to send someone to a doctor instead of a deeper stretch.
Asana
Standing, seated, twists, arm balances, inversions, backbends — broken down. You do not memorize a sequence. You learn why the pose is built that way, and how to teach it to a room that is not all the same body. The library clips are the start of that work.
Pranayama & meditation
Breath and stillness as skills, not afterthoughts. You practice the counts, the holds, and the quiet that has to be taught, not hoped for. Sound bath sits in this part of the training. So does the part where you stop talking and let the room settle.
You do not need a perfect practice to enroll. You will teach a full class at the end, with notes from faculty and peers. Payment plan available after the $400 deposit.
