Course Description

Study In Confidence with Dr Karen E Wells : Bestselling Instructor

Professional Yoga Teacher Training Diploma Course

Full Certification Diploma Course to Learn the In depth techniques of Yoga to teach to Students & Groups!

This course is fully accredited by CTAA - Complementary Therapists Accredited Association (not Udemy)

Our Professional Yoga Teacher Training Course is based on Hatha Yoga. 

This course was voted Best Yoga Teacher Online Course

If you are a yoga enthusiast and looking to start a new career teaching yoga, then this course will provide you with all of the information necessary. 

If you have been practising yoga for a long time, then you will find that this course takes an in-depth look at the benefits of each posture as well as providing tips for alignment and the breath. If you are new to yoga, we strongly recommend that you take the time to learn all of the postures detailed here and to study yoga, practising each day ensuring ease and proficiency before considering starting your own yoga class.

By living it yourself, your experience and enthusiasm will be far-reaching. It’s useful to have a good understanding of anatomy and physiology and be prepared to adapt postures where necessary, not every student will be flexible and in full health, so take the time to learn how to adapt specific postures so that the student can still gain the benefits of the pose. 

Teaching yoga provides many benefits on a personal level – it’s a satisfying and fulfilling career and importantly, you are able to witness the development of your students as they improve their health and well-being. Careful monitoring of the students’ movements and alignment throughout the session, helps them to avoid injury.

Teaching yoga requires dedication and commitment. 

The role of a yoga teacher is an important one, it affords you the opportunity of being able to shape the lives of others in a truly holistic manner and to bear witness to your students’ progression. As a career, it provides a great deal of satisfaction and reward as you see your students, initially challenged by the stresses of day-to-day life, metamorphosing into confident, supple and tranquil individuals.

  • Introduction To Professional Yoga Teacher Training Diploma Course

Short & sweet. You should know that it takes 45 days after you bought the course for you to get your certificate. That being said, the assignment was very helpful to understand future students. I feel that this course focuses mainly in the physical practice, and the actual class teaching. Which can be very useful. The yoga book is good. Not focused on the spiritual side, but It's a good base course for yoga teaching. Pros and cons of the postures are included in the manual.

By Gail Sciabarrasi on 9/15/2022

Yes it was a good match. I was able to incorporate what I was learning into a chair yoga class set up on my deck at my house. The women in my class were all over 60 and had never experienced yoga. I had great success with this class focusing on breathing, stretching, and easy postures done in a chair. We are going to continue with this class after I finish this course. There was a great need and interest in yoga which I was able to provide after working on some of the modules in this course.

Der Kurs ist ok, leider kann ich die Prüfungsfragen für Zertifikat nicht senden, weil die Email Adresse was in Skript ist nicht funktioniert. Habe die Daten in png Format gespeichert und gesendet, es komm Fehler zurück. Was kann ich tun, damit ein Zertifikat erhalte, Mit freundlichen Grüßen Sorina Strobl

Your have an excellent course. I Wish you should fix pass marking criteria by conducting online exam for your student as Udemy is following for other yoga courses. I daily practice yoga and also comfortable in doing almost all Aasan & Pranayam with perfection even most difficult one "Head Stand" . I want to some certification to prove my capabilities. How can your help me to become a Yoga teacher.

By Neil Farber on 5/16/2020

Videos are not good (when it is actually a video and not just a stock picture of others doing yoga), and do not demonstrate professional's ability. She only shows poses in an altered/easy form. Most of the learning is expected to be done on your own. Found numerous spelling errors as well as an incorrect Sanskrit word. Overall unimpressed and fairly disappointed.

By Kissu Denton Savage on 9/15/2019

The course was very good as it made realised and appreciate my own body, posture and the importance to practice yoga whilst I am teaching other hard core format. My flexibility and understanding of stretching, good posture and breathing technique has improved, I will continue my learning and practising the yoga poses for a couple of months before I can finally teach it as a format.

By Dominique Saczawa on 5/11/2019

The manual which the class is based off of is fantastic. I gained a wealth of knowledge from that. But the "class" and videos were basically nonexistent. For half the classes, the teacher would read a piece of the module, then basically tell us to read it and study it on our own. Half the videos were just a photograph and then in the verrrryy corner, the teacher was cut out to speak. It wasn't an interactive video in any form. The times when they did do poses it was better but for such an important class, they could have done better.

By Helen Hunt on 10/15/2018

I found this course really helpful. I have been practising yoga myself for 5 years so the course concreted, corrected, and enlightened my existing knowledge of yoga. I found it helpful to progress from being a yogi to becoming a yoga teacher as the course highlights the difference between being capable in my own practice and teaching others -which is a lot harder than it first seems. The course has helped me to progress to teaching -something that I've wanted to do for awhile but lacked confidence to commit to. I would recommend this course to yogis who want to learn how to teach their own class. Personally I think that becoming involved with other yoga teachers and committing to developing your own practice with research and taking opportunities such as attending yoga retreats would work hand in hand with this course.

By Hayley leitch on 7/30/2018

I loved following this course, I had been practising YOGA for 2 years and decided due to the health benefits it had given me that I'd like to share that with others in a hope to help them too. This is why I took this course, I found Karen very helpful and professional. thank you Karen and Lisbeth xxxxx

By Jackie Stein on 7/25/2018

I enjoyed learning from this course at my own pace. I felt that both the video presentations coupled with the comprehensive manual give you a very good foundation to Yoga. I really liked seeing the videos of the poses, so you could see the 'real world' difficulties that may be faced by people trying to get into certain poses. I like the fact I can revisit the different sections to refresh my knowledge whenever I want to. I felt it was well explained and suited me. Thank you.
