300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
A 10 month immersive training for yoga teachers to help you deepen your practice, refine your teaching skills, and find your community in the heart of Hoboken, New Jersey
If teaching yoga is your passion and you’re ready to learn more — a lot more… this course is for you!
Are you a yoga teacher who is ready to offer your students a way to learn + grow more? Maybe you’re looking to understand the depth your own practice is capable of meeting. Or maybe you’ve finally decided you want to be an expert in your field and really focus your classes on something specific. You may even be a mix of all three!
Teaching yoga is a privilege. And when it’s also your purpose + passion, you know how important it is to commit to a lifetime of study.
Being a student of yoga is one of the most important parts of being a great yoga teacher
In order to serve your students well, you need to be constantly embracing your own curiosity in order to uncover more layers of the practice. Whether you’re looking to enhance your overall teaching, or want to dive deeper into a specific element of the practice, our 300HR Advanced Yoga Teacher Training will give you the guidance and support you’re looking for.
My 300 hr YTT with YogaRenew was transformative! It was such a rewarding, meaningful, and valuable learning opportunity that helped me go deeper into the study of yoga. The detailed and thoughtfully designed coursework is masterfully delivered by some of the best yoga teachers I have ever had the privilege to study with. It dramatically impacted the way I teach and practice. I’m very proud to have done my 300 hour YTT with YogaRenew!

Starting a 300HR training program is a big deal.
It requires a commitment to serious study and practice, which takes up valuable time that you probably already feel a little short on. We want you want to choose a program that is worth your investment– both energetically and financially– and that aligns with your values as a teacher.
Our training is the best fit for you if…
1. You want to learn how to practice and teach advanced yoga poses.
The core of our training is focused on teaching Advanced Asana for Vinyasa classes. Light on Yoga is going to become your bible as you dig in to advanced inversions, backbends, arm balances + more. You’ll learn how to break these poses down in an accessible way for yourself + for your students and maybe even practice poses you never thought would be possible.
2. You’re ready to become a master at sequencing classes.
Sequencing is kind of our thing! We believe it is the key to being a yoga teacher who stands out from all the rest and in our 300HR training we take a deep deep into our sequencing secret sauce {say that 5x fast!}. We’re going to teach how to create classes where every pose has a purpose and every student will find success. This is a key piece that will help you stand out among other yoga teachers and become an expert at teaching vinyasa yoga.
3. You want to define your “thing”.
Students love you not only for your great sequence, but for the other things you bring to class. Are you super into yoga philosophy? Or do the Chakras + Koshas get your juices flowing? Maybe Restorative Yoga is your speciality and you’re ready to learn more. From Advanced Anatomy to Mobility, Yogic Philosophy to Ayurveda, you will be able to dive deep in and cultivate your unique offering.
4. You’re looking to build a network of mentors + peers.
We seriously love yoga, and we seriously love our teachers. The business is amazing but–let’s get really here– it can also be really hard. Having a tribe of fellow teachers is so important for self-care in this industry. You’ll be able to bounce around business ideas, practice hands-on, or just to grab a coffee with other people who totally get it.
If that all sounds good and you're ready to commit read on to learn about what your training days will look like...
