Become the teacher you already are.

This fall, Soluna Sage is opening a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training — small, local, and built for real life. Whether you're deepening your own practice or stepping fully into teaching, this training meets you where you are.

This training is for you if…
You've thought about teaching but worry you're "not ready" or "not advanced enough".You're juggling work, family, or a full life and need a schedule that actually fits.You want a small, intimate group — not a packed room of strangers.You've felt like yoga teacher trainings weren't built for bodies like yours, or lives like yours.You want to grow your practice and your confidence, not just check a box
If any of that sounds familiar — you're exactly who this is for.
How it works
A hybrid format designed for working adults and parents, not just people with endless free time:
1 live Zoom call per week — connect with your cohort, ask questions, go deeper.
1 in-person Saturday a month at Soluna Sage for hands-on practice, real feedback, real community.
One retreat weekend — a chance to fully unplug and immerse.
Small cohorts of 10 people — you will be seen, known, and supported, not lost in a crowd.
No exams. No gatekeeping. Just steady, supported growth — assessed by what you can actually do, not by a test.
The Investment
Pay in Full: $1,750 — one simple payment
Deposit + Payment Plan: $500 deposit (applied to your total) + 5 monthly payments of $250 (August–December)
Total either way: $1,750.
No discount for paying in full, no penalty for the payment plan — just whatever works for your life. Deposits are open. Spots are limited to 10 per cohort, and close July 31st or whenever the cohort fills — whichever comes first.
All payments, including the deposit, are non-refundable.
