Nest Yoga 200 Hr Teacher Training


Are you ready to dive deeper into your yoga practice? Does your next chapter include teaching yoga? Are you curious about why this thousands year old practice transcends age, culture and geography? If so, read on….

Guided by Leslie Howard, Margi Young, and other Nest teachers, the NEST YOGA 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training will deepen your practice and teach you how to lead with clarity, depth, and compassion. The program explores five layers of being—physical body, breath, mind and emotions, wisdom, and bliss—drawing from the Taittiriya Upanishad.

  1. Physical Body: Study poses and learn the anatomy to teach with safety and effectiveness.

  2. Breath: Learn and practice pranayama to guide energy and calm for yourself and your students.

  3. Mind & Emotions: Explore yoga philosophy, self-reflection, and meditation for mental clarity.

  4. Wisdom: Cultivate deeper self-awareness through meditation and insight.

  5. Bliss: Connect with your inner joy to live and teach with compassion and authenticity.

With ample practice teaching, this training will ground you in both technique and self-awareness, preparing you to guide not only others on their yoga journey but importantly, yourself.
