Course Description
- Our program is designed in such a way that the student will be able to complete the course of study within a 2-3 year period. Each student will develop a schedule of yoga participation that will meet the hour requirements.
- Prerequisite: A minimum of 200 Hours of teaching training from a Yoga Alliance approved school.

Course Hour Breakdown
Rahini Yoga Institute observes the right to make changes.
Only 350 total hours are required for the 550 Hour Certification because the course is designed for the yoga student who has already successfully completed a Yoga Alliance 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program. (As stated above, 100 hours of the 350 hours are assistant teaching hours during the 200 hour Rahini Yoga Workshops).
