200 Hour Foundational Yoga Teacher Training

Set the foundation for your never-ending exploration as a teacher, creator, learner, and forever student

The Moved. 200 hour Foundational training course is the first step in learning how to teach group yoga classes with confidence and clarity.

Begin your teaching journey with the support of an established method and a global group of teachers here to support your dive into Hatha Yoga and the Vinyasa pillar of the Awakening Yoga practice system.

Moved. 200 hour YTT is practical, flexible education for the next era of yoga teaching: one that honors tradition, integrates modern movement science, and values each teacher’s voice and impact.

Our program blends the richness of yoga philosophy with evidence-informed anatomy, mobility, and functional strength principles. You’ll learn how the body adapts, how asana has evolved, how the nervous system influences practice, and how to teach with agency instead of autopilot.

We go far beyond “here’s the pose, here’s the cue.”

We emphasize critical thinking and open-ended exploration - there isn’t just one right way, there are many.

You’ll understand the why behind the movement so you can teach with purpose, clarity, and confidence - in your own authentic voice.

Whether you want to teach, deepen your personal practice, or build a more resilient relationship with your practice; this training offers the structure, support, and community to help you get there.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • Functional and applied anatomy

  • Nervous system foundations and how they influence practice

  • Foundational breath work and basic energetic principles

  • Pose families and asana patterning

  • Sequencing methodology + class arc design

  • Verbal cueing, pacing, and class management

  • Student appropriate assists framed through consent and clarity

  • Working with props, modifications + individualized supportive variations

  • Foundational Yoga History & Philosophy

  • How to build your voice, presence, and confidence as a new teacher

You’ll walk away with:

  • A repeatable, flexible sequencing system you can adapt to any style or class (but with your own unique twist and emerging voice as a teacher)

  • The confidence to teach poses and transitions in a way that is adaptable, inclusive, and rooted in functional understanding.

  • A grounded framework for understanding how and why yoga works (not just what the poses look like)

  • A clear, grounded understanding of yoga philosophy, a confident teacher presence, and practical skills for leading classes with care, clarity, and integrity.
