Details

Sewall House has been offering our 200-hour Yoga Alliance-Certified Yoga Teacher Training since 2009. This in-person training takes place annually and is offered by three dedicated yogis with a combined 75+ years of yoga-teaching experience. Amrita, Ajeet, and Lindsay provide training that is rich in yogic practice, theory, techniques, and personal attention as they reverently and joyfully infuse a depth of lived experience into the program. Our 200-hour Yoga Alliance-Certified Yoga Teacher Training is in person, so it’s limited to six participants. This ensures that each trainee will be truly seen and supported through their process of learning, purification, and integration during this three-week intensive. This in-person yoga teacher training at Sewall House in Island Falls, Maine, is a unique opportunity to participate in an immersive three-week intensive yoga teacher certification program in a small residential retreat center in picturesque northern New England. NOTE: You don’t need a firm desire to teach to participate in this program. You can use it to deepen your current yoga practice. However, you may find that when you engage in the practice teaching sessions, you love teaching! Even if you don’t, the knowledge you gain at the 200-hour Teacher Training will help you along your personal yoga journey.

Testimonials

info

I want to send you a huge THANK YOU! The Sewall House 200-hour yoga teacher training program is solid, expansive, informative, and fun. I’m grateful for the many things I’ve learned from you! I appreciate how much time, effort, love, and dedication you’ve put into your program. I was way more prepared for the 300 Hr program I took later than many others there were. Sending you much love today, and every day.

This is an intimate and intense program! We had 5 trainees and 3 highly committed teachers (one main teacher at the helm teaching and running the majority of our meditations, yoga classes, and lectures/discussions on required topics; a second that shared a couple of special topics and her preferred yoga style; and the third trained in another style lead several classes, our yoga sutra learning and did the majority of the cooking for us). Great teamwork! The five of us worked hard, supported each other through thick and thin, and truly bonded. It was an incredible experience. I feel ready to embark on my teaching journey. 🙂
