Why we will not do an online yoga teacher training

1/18/2021

At the moment, Yoga Alliance has extended the possibility for yoga schools to offer yoga teacher trainings online for at least another year. Chances are, this is a permanent shift. It's now possible to join a certified training anywhere at anytime, for as little as €350. A difficult choice for someone interested in becoming a yoga teacher just became even more difficult. How do you compare a €350 training with a €4500 training? We think you don't. 

We discussed moving our training online when the pandemic first hit. Ultimately, our decision is firm. We will not offer our program online. These are some reasons why. 

  • A True North Vinyasa training means making connections for life. In a way that you never really get to do much as an adult. You know, like going to summer camp. Or like moving into the dorms at university. Or staying in hostels in Australia. In that way when you really get to know people because you hang out with them all the time. We wouldn't be able to create this human connection online. 
  • A True North Vinyasa training is an immersion. It's 3 weeks of escaping your every day life, creating new habits and patterns that might stay with you forever. We cannot create an immersion online.
  • A True North Vinyasa training is development of your yoga practice and of yourself. Daily feedback from your teachers and fellow trainees will do that. We cannot fully see you or assist you online. 
  • A True North Vinyasa training is high quality down to every detail. From the paper picked for the manual to the food on your plate. We cannot guarantee this type of quality online. 
  • A True North Vinyasa training is real. We hug. We dance. We laugh. We challenge you. We get to know you. We boost you. It's hard to believe we could give you this experience online.  

So, instead of re-inventing our program and trying to squeeze it into a screen, we will stubbornly stick with our 3 week intensives through 2021 as well. This is what we are passionate about. This is what we do best.
