Look for these qualities in a yoga course in your search
for an accredited, professional yoga teacher & studio.
NOTE: these courses are currently not available in the IE but are an example for you.
The Time is NOW....
for you to explore new opportunities, expand your awareness and create a new and deeper meaning to your Life! This is a
joyful investment in yourself - benefits you will feel every day,
whether you become a Registered Yoga Alliance Teacher OR
view these valuable teachings as a personal enrichment.
Either way, your new tools and practice will change your life.
We Change Our World One Step at a Time. Take Your First Step with Us!
This 10-month Yoga Teacher Training & Life Changing Program covers all aspects of Hatha Yoga instruction, including methodology, phylosophy and anatomy. Western Yoga College is a respected registered yoga school
with Yoga Alliance - which certifies our graduates as a Registered Yoga Teacher at 200 Hour Level. It is the only nationally recognized Yoga Registration Institute. Yoga studios, private and public schools at all levels, fitness institutes, gyms across the US and Canada accept Yoga Alliance RYT status as verification of teaching credibility.
The personal and professional benefits are far reaching......
To become a Yoga Teacher is by no means the only reason to join the Program. Anyone who is committed to
furthering their yoga practice, or deepening their inner, spiritual world through exploring the scientificically proven
practices of yoga and meditation - will benefit themselves and our world. Students become part of a Sangha,
a well-structured, safe and suportive group where you feel the kind of rare connection we make from opening
our true selves to the journey. While the program course is structured, requiring outside reading and practice,
your teachers inspire light-hearted kirtan (chant, music, sound) and playful learning.
All of this requires experienced guidance. Lynn Kelley-Piper, E-RYT500 and Scott Miller, RYT are your teachers
for the entire duration of the Teacher Training & Life Changing Program.
Scott Miller has for years, influenced many Teacher Training programs throughout Southern California, and brought that expertise to Riverside in 2002, with the first Teacher Training offered in the Inland Empire. His TTPrograms are highly successful and enjoyed by many current students who have moved on to teach.
Scott studied for many years with yoga masters Pattabi Jois, Paul Greeley, Lisa Walford and Maty Azraty.
Lynn Kelley-Piper, International Yoga Teacher, speaker and lecturer, workshop and intensives teacher, brings
over forty years of yogic study, teaching and program directorship that trace back not only to BKS Iyengar,
Desikachar or Jois, but directly to their teacher, Sri T. Krishnamacharya. Lynn is his sole, surviving female student.
