Continuing Education for Teachers

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are an essential part of maintaining and advancing your yoga teaching credentials.These specialized training hours help you deepen your practice and expand your teaching skills. CEUs are documented hours of additional training and education that registered yoga teachers (RYTs) complete to maintain their certification with Yoga Alliance and other certifying bodies.
