COURSE STRUCTURE FOR EACH MODULE
I'm excited to share that I have updated the course structure this year! In the past, we moved through a single 100-hour module at a quick two-week pace. This year, each module will be conducted over a span of six weeks. This means that you will have more time to watch the videos, do the practices, and absorb the content.
👇 Watch the video below to learn more! 👇
Twice-weekly live calls with Jason
Two days per week for 6 weeks, you will join Jason on Zoom for practice and discussions. There are two choices of meeting times on each day. You can choose whichever time works best for you.
Live call times for Module I
Two call times on Wednesdays: 8-10am Pacific OR 4-6pm Pacific:
5/10, 5/17, 5/24, 6/31, 6/7, 6/14
Two call times on Saturdays: 8-10am Pacific OR 4-6pm Pacific:
5/13, 5/20, 5/27, 6/3, 6/10, 6/17
Note: Live call times for Modules II & III are coming soon!
If you cannot make it to the live calls, we will have them available for you to watch on replay.
Pre-recorded lectures with a 6-week schedule
Go at your own pace and watch the videos as many times
as you need to for an entire year.
You will have access to ALL course content until May 24th, 2024.
Asana, pranayama, and meditation
Each module includes pre-recorded classes that are broken down into meditation, asana, and guided relaxation or pranayama components.
400-Page Jason Crandell Yoga Method Manual
Each module has its own downloadable and printable PDF manual to reinforce the teachings in the course and keep you organized.
Yoga Alliance Accredited 500-Hour Certification
After completing all of the content and a testing process, you will be able to register with Yoga Alliance as a 500-hour RYT.
You will walk away from this training with critical thinking skills and technique, but more importantly, with the empathy and the knowledge to make sure you are helping your students.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS...
This program is designed to be flexible and practical:
There are three modules of 100-hours each.
You can take one module or do all three to
become a 500-hour RYT.
AND WHO IT'S FOR...
Yoga teachers and students seeking an expert-level education
Yoga teachers looking to uncover a teaching path that is true to you.
Students of every lineage who want more depth, skill and inspiration in their practice.
A high quality online education requires a teacher who is organized, deeply knowledgeable,
and truly able to connect.

WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING
Each time I study with you, Jason, I come away feeling excited that I have learned so much that I can’t wait to share with my students.
This course has been the most informative and valuable training I have ever undertaken.
Your guidance around sequencing and the master sequence template are invaluable. The last few lectures on sequencing have shed so much light on a subject that has always seemed so mysterious and unfathomable to me – once again I thank you for this.
I am so grateful that this module was virtual, as I was able to pause videos to write things down, and repeat them when I felt like I didn’t catch something! That is SUPER helpful for someone with a learning style like mine.
I truly feel like things which previously felt like they didn’t “stick” have now been internalized in my mind and body, and I am stoked about that!
It’s like finally things clicked!

JACKIE DOMINAS
HEY, I'M JASON.
I’ve been teaching yoga for over 20 years, teaching everywhere from local studios around the globe to providing trainings at the world’s most prestigious yoga conferences and events.
More importantly for this particular training, I’ve been a pioneer in online teaching and training for nearly a decade and I've learned to incorporate best practices for online learning from online educational specialists.
I’m not rushing from behind to get my trainings online like so many others -- I’ve been honing this process for years.
Over the decades, I’ve continued to refine and improve the way I train, guide, and support teachers in my advanced trainings.
I prioritize critical thinking skills, the integration of modern sports science with ancient understanding in asana technique, and creating a lasting community of peers.
In addition to teaching layers and layers of sequencing, I focus on helping teachers develop compelling and comprehensive curriculums for their students. My bachelor’s in Philosophy and years of studying yoga philosophy helps me communicate the essence of the yoga tradition in a clear, honest, and accessible way.
Most importantly, I work to ensure that you are seen, supported, and educated in a comprehensive way -- helping you develop your career as a teacher and make a positive impact on YOUR students.
SUPPORT FACULTY
CHELSEY ADAMS
I completed my 500-hour teacher training with Jason in 2017 and have assisted 10 training modules with Jason — both in-person and online. The time I’ve spent in those training modules has not only helped me refine my teaching skills and evolve as a teacher; it’s also connected me to an exceptional community of extraordinary teachers from around the world. Assisting and supporting students through their training has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my yoga career.
ANDREA FERRETTI
I'm the host of Yogaland Podcast and the former executive editor of Yoga Journal. (In case you don't know me, I'm also Jason's wife!) I've been practicing yoga and meditation for 20 years and find that the benefits of yoga support me in every aspect of my life. I play a role in these trainings, guiding you through morning mindfulness meditations and offering my content creation knowledge through the live calls.
This training will equip you with
everything I’ve learned, everything I have
refined and everything that I bring
to bear in my career as a yoga teacher.
