200 hour Yoga Teacher Training program


this training is life-changing

Our 5-star rated training is developed and lead by lululemon ambassador and Yoga Journal contributor, Nicole Calhoun, PhD, ERYT. In our Yoga Alliance Certified 200-hour yoga teacher training program, you will gain a rock-solid foundation to begin teaching vinyasa yoga with a strong education in anatomy and alignment along with the confidence to find and share YOUR voice with the world. Our teachers are trained to deliver an energetic, well-rounded group yoga class with passion and intention, all while interweaving the physical and mindfulness components of yoga into one solid practice.

the elxr training method

 The ELXR 200-hour yoga teacher training method not only provides a solid foundation to confidently teach yoga, it sets the stage to deepen one’s own personal practice by stressing the importance of self-discipline, personal growth, and self-discovery: before you can teach yoga, you MUST be a dedicated student. The focus of our 200-hour yoga teacher trainings is to provide students with a sound knowledge of yoga history and theory, anatomy, alignment, public speaking, and confidence. This foundation will serve as a powerful base from which to teach and guide your future students through a practice that not only challenges and educates them, but also inspires them…always stressing patience, mindfulness, and perseverance. Our program encourages a strong creative focus and teaches you to unlock your individual potential and unique voice as a vinyasa yoga teacher.

We are proud to offer this unique and exceptional yoga teacher training program and honored to host of all yoga backgrounds and levels. The structure of our 200-hour yoga teacher training weekend intensive allows for completion in just 3 short months, while providing a vibrant community experience during our time together. You will make life-long friends during this experience. 

Unlike other trainings, we also incorporate the business of yoga into your education by teaching you how to begin and manage your teaching career and build a personal brand. You’ll spend a full weekend learning the business of yoga and how to utilize and grow on social media from the best. You will come away with a strong foundation in the technical, inspirational and business side of yoga that combine together to create an exceptional and well-rounded yoga instructor.
