Does this sound familiar?

You've thought about becoming a yoga teacher...and you're sure you want to deepen your practice.

Here's the bottom line about 200-hour yoga teacher training:

It is the perfect opportunity to deepen your practice, regardless of whether or not you plan to teach.
Online teacher training has distinct advantages that may serve you better than in-person training.

What's unique about my approach

I take a modern approach that honors the yoga tradition.

I've spent thousands of hours teaching yoga and training teachers. I've also looked to peers outside the yoga community, in the fields of physical therapy, orthopedics, and sports medicine. As a result, you'll learn the most up-to-date, contemporary asana techniques without losing the essence of the yoga tradition.
I will teach you how to teach online and in-person.

Today’s teachers need to know how to teach in different environments -- and different environments require different formats. I've been teaching on glo for more than 15 years and in person for 25+. This training has you covered as I share my own wisdom and experiences transparently.

I aim to contextualize yoga anatomy and make it accessible.

If you’re intimidated or nervous about learning anatomy, this is YOUR training. The anatomy is presented in a straightforward, accessible way that’s immediately practical and easily digestible.
I work hard to ensure that you feel confident in your teaching.

I know how hard it can be to present in front of groups, so I build you up slowly but surely. You will graduate with a plan to teach. In fact, you’ll graduate with a template, which includes 5 structured sequences and a curriculum to teach beginners.

“Jason's 200-hour vinyasa yoga teacher training was an amazing program. The progression of classes is thoughtfully organized and his approach to yoga is refreshingly modern while remaining mindful of yoga's history and philosophy. I gained a much deeper understanding of poses I had been doing for years, along with great ideas for teaching them to beginner students. I highly recommend this program to yogis looking to deepen their own practice and understand how to approach yoga education in a contemporary setting.”

“For me, the 200 YTT with Jason Crandell opened up a whole new perspective on my personal yoga practice. His technique, knowledge and experience convinced me on every level. But the most important thing is that he simply loves people, loves being a teacher and loves passing on his enthusiasm.”

“I can't say enough about the curriculum and education I received in this 200 HR. This course’s means of teaching asana, sequencing, anatomy, and philosophy is well-balanced and masterful. I feel I understand more about how the body functions in yoga and why postures fit together. He is empathetic towards new teachers and gives everyone the opportunity to practice and learn sequences that aid in internalizing the curriculum.

You will listen to content and then you will practice the content. That strategy results in deeper learning and just an all-around good time during the 200 hour. You know he has taught for decades but is still learning and transmitting that learning to the soon-to-be teacher.

I was never worried about the content being online—and now that it is complete, I’m so glad this was the modality I took my initial training. I've gone back and repeated lectures and practices. I have also taken a full year to complete the training. It worked with my schedule as a public school educator and never left me feeling rushed.

You will learn MUCH from Jason Crandell. He is a teacher's teacher! I hope to take his 300 hour soon.”
