WHAT SETS US APART
PREPARE TO TEACH THE RIGHT WAY
Unlike other programs that can leave you feeling unprepared or unsure, our 200-hour teacher training program is specifically designed to equip you with the tools and confidence to teach immediately upon graduation. We emphasize practical, hands-on experience on day 1, ensuring that you’re not just studying theory but also practicing how to apply it in real-world scenarios.
You'll be prepared to step into any classroom setting and teach with authority and assurance. We focus on building your teaching skills throughout the program, so by the time you graduate, you’ll feel fully capable of leading your own classes.
Our team of trainers will guide you through every aspect of the process—from mastering asanas and sequencing to understanding classroom management and student dynamics. You’ll get to practice teaching regularly during the program, receiving constructive feedback from multiple experts. This way, you leave not only with the knowledge but also the experience to run your own classes successfully.
At Zen, we don’t just prepare you to teach—we prepare you to excel.
