200hr Aligned Flow Teacher Training

Various dates | Tulum, Mexico

Welcome to Yoga Teacher Training in Tulum, Mexico.
This is a NON-RESIDENTIAL immersion that takes place at our home base studio in Tulum, Mexico. This gives you the opportunity to book your lodging based on budget/comfort and immerse yourself into our amazing yoga community.

Our passion for yoga can be found at the very core of this program. From daily yoga practice to meditation practicals, study labs to group learning, guest teacher workshops to individual mentoring, we have created a program that is transformative.

Take the next step in your journey and join us for a life changing experience on the path to becoming a yoga teacher.

*Upon completion of this 200hr immersion, you will graduate equipped to teach Aligned Flow vinyasa classes and will qualify to register with Yoga Alliance and/or Yoga Alliance Professionals.

*Please note: this is not a retreat but a yoga training intensive. Therefore you will be required to dedicate time and energy to study. This program was created to create teachers and empower students to become leaders, so if you are looking for a program to solely deepen your connection to yoga, this may not be the right fit.

Tulum is a charming town located 90 minutes south of Cancun Airport. Tulum town and beach are completely separate entities and your training will take place at Yoga Dicha Studio in town.

Tulum town has much to offer in the way of restaurants, cafes, shopping, 'fruiterias' and more. All within walking distance from the studio. Tulum beach is about a 25 minute bike ride away and bike rentals are easy to come by and a great way to explore town and beach.
Your Tulum immersion will give you the opportunity to be a part of our amazing dicha community and live how our studio teachers live while you embark on a transformative journey.

*PLEASE NOTE: This is a teacher training intensive. Which means you will have a full schedule of in-studio learning and homework. We recommend that you book time after to extend your stay so you have a chance to explore and absorb all you experienced during your study time.
