The NYC 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
TSY is a yoga teacher training school focused on creating, thoughtful, open-minded inclusive teachers.
An extensive yoga background is not required to join the TSY 200-hour community because your ability to perform asana is not an indication of your teaching potential.
To be a great teacher, you must first be a wise and conscientious student. Therefore, the 200-hour program is perfect if you want to teach or if you want to study yoga in-depth.
The TSY 200-hour program immerses you in history, philosophy, postures, anatomy as it relates to yoga, and subtle physiology from a yogic perspective.
We will give you the tools to grow your personal practice and, should you choose, begin your yoga teaching career. You will learn how to bring your personal flair, unique perspective, life experiences and personality to your work, how to find your authentic voice, develop vibrant and creative classes, teach private clients and build a business.
TSY is a community of friends. We celebrate you. When you join us, you will connect with like-minded, independent people and create a supportive, loving network of friends and co-teachers to sustain you.
Our training is intimate, personalized, popular, and registered with the Yoga Alliance. All in-person/hybrid programs are “intensives” (see below for current training dates).
All our classes are conducted in our New York City studio and online at the same time. If miss hours and need to make-up classes later, you can join us via zoom.
Contact us, schedule an info call or sign up here to take a sample class and see what we’re all about.
We look forward to learning and growing with you soon!
Be prepared to learn a lot, teach a lot and make great friends!
