All About The Program
Why Lighthouse Yoga Center?
The goal of Lighthouse’s Hatha Yoga Teacher Trainings is to train quality teachers with an understanding of yoga philosophy, anatomy and asana.
Our small group focus allows us to set rigorous standards, which include plenty of time for practice teaching.
Lighthouse teachers are among the most capable in the region, and we are committed to upholding this standard.
Lighthouse has a commitment to social and racial justice and incorporates those values into our teacher trainings.

I learned more than I expected to - not only about the practice of yoga, its roots and principles - but also new ways (to me) of being in my life.... Yoga Teacher Training not only prepared me to lead others in the practice of yoga, but it also opened my mind to new ways of seeing - and my heart to new ways of experiencing - virtually everything else in my life.

Participating in Yoga Teacher Training was one of the most incredible experiences. Tara expertly shared her wisdom and as a result, my knowledge and appreciation of this ancient practice has deepened exponentially. The community of yogis we created will remain with me forever.
