GENERAL INQUIRIES
​
I am a 200-hour certified yoga teacher. What are the benefits of enrolling in a 300-hour training?
A 300-hour training is an opportunity to enhance your personal practice while expanding your teaching skills. As yoga soars in popularity, students and studios require more teachers with in-depth training and the ability to teach to wider varieties of students, including beginners, advanced practitioners, and people with unique limitations or special needs.
​
What distinguishes the 300-Hour Sumits Yoga Teacher Training?
The Sumits School of Yoga offers a profound immersion learning experience. When you’re absorbed in yoga, from skill-building and self-development to living in a community of like-minded peers, you have the opportunity to deeply embody what you are learning. You discover empowering ways to integrate the fundamentals of the Sumits lineage with understanding gained from contemporary wisdom and scientific study. Sumits Yoga is a living tradition and continually evolving practice.
​
What specific skills will I develop in each module?
Each module brings an advanced skill set into focus, in order to learn and integrate these skills into a complete Yoga class. These include advanced asana and vinyasa, meditation, pranayama, and techniques for adapting yoga to special-needs populations. Teachers are given tools to help them create and develop effective yoga classes for every level.
Graduates are considered Sumits ambassadors who can skillfully make SumitsYoga accessible in serving diverse students, communities, and settings.
​
Is there a time limit to start or complete the modules?
You may begin taking the modules any time after you complete your Yoga Alliance–approved 200-hour certification. Most students complete the 300-hour training within two years; however, you can take as many modules as you wish per year. In order to be certified as a 300-Hour Sumits Yoga Teacher, once accepted as a student, you must complete your modules within five years.
​
Once I’m accepted into the 300-hour training, what is the criterion for certification?
Certification is based upon meeting requisites for attendance, class participation, and practice-teaching assessments.
Are there prerequisites, homework, and/or required reading for each module?
Some modules might include homework and reading assignments.
​
Is there credit for training completed outside of Sumits?
Students may complete their 200-hour teacher certification at any Yoga Alliance-approved school. However, Sumits doesn’t transfer credits or hours from any other 300-hour program.
