Once you register for a coaching package, you'll have instant access to our calendar to choose a time for your first meeting. You'll be able to book a meeting time at the first available time with either Aruna or Claire (often as early as two days later).  You'll receive the meeting Zoom link automatically by e-mail and before you know it you'll be getting personalized support!

Unfortunately the hour cannot be divided into shorter sessions. The one hour coaching sessions are full of personal support and information to help you move forward with your planning. We allow up to 15 minutes of extra time at no charge for the first session.

Because of the complexity of planning a training, we have found that shorter sessions are very difficult to keep on time.  

We recommend you write down all your questions and bring them to a one hour session. If you need less than one hour of support, see the next FAQ for all the ways we can support you in that hour.

This coaching is for people who are writing their own Yoga Teacher Training (YTT).  We're not gonna lie, completing a YTT takes a lot of work! You probably know this if you've been thinking of offering a YTT for a while. We believe this coaching can save you valuable time but we do not write your manual and plan your schedule for you, completing your YTT will depend on you.

We offer no guarantees around completing your training and there are no refunds.  

We have a 5-Star 200 Hour Training that we license out and guarantee. If you want a guarantee, please check out that resource under "All Courses" and look for Yoga Alliance Trainer Fast Track. If you find yourself struggling to complete your training on your own, we offer a credit from your coaching purchase towards the Trainer Fast Track program.  The Fast Track program includes a complete manual, daily schedule (Trainer Lesson Plans), and you can assign us as your Syllabus Manager and we'll enter the Core Curriculum for your YA RYS application.  We can guarantee you an approved RYS with the Trainer Fast Track program because it's already complete and has already been approved.

This one-to-one coaching program is an alternative to the Yoga Trainer Fast Track and recommended for those who want to DIY their Yoga Teacher Training.

If you don't need a full hour of coaching or decide not to write your own training, you are welcome to use your coaching for any topics related to your yoga business.

We have been teaching yoga for a combined 45 years!  

We have an RYS, RCYS, (children's) and RPYS (prenatal)

We have hosted numerous workshops and retreats, lived in ashrams, traveled to India, joined movements, left movements, and owned 2 storefront yoga studios. We've been full-time teachers and at times, taken jobs to support our passion.  We won't judge your decisions, we'll offer our full support on your chosen path.

If there is something you want to explore as a yoga teacher, we can share our experience and insights to make your coaching time worth it!

This coaching program does not include a manual, it does not include materials for your RYS application.

This is one-to-one coaching to support people who are writing their own training.  

If you wish you had a yoga teacher training that was already written and complete, check out the Yoga Alliance Trainer Fast Track Program. It literally has everything you need!

The Done-for-You program is for those with a final draft of their YTT manual and an outline of how they will deliver the training.  We take your training and write the Yoga Alliance application requirements for you.

What we do: Based on your training, we balance the Educational Category hours and then write the core competencies for your RYS application and prepare all the other application requirements. If any info is missing we'll let you know so you can add it to your training. We can make minor formatting updates to your manual so it is the way Yoga Alliance likes to see it. We can also serve as your syllabus manager and upload the application for you. Finally, if Yoga Alliance requires any changes we help you address those as well.

What we don't do: We don't write your manual or plan the delivery of the training for you. If your training needs more hours in certain Educational Categories or core competencies, for example Anatomy and Physiology, we will let you know exactly which core competencies are missing so you can update your manual. However, we don't write any parts of the manual for you. You are required to commit to completing the application within one year of signing up for the done-for-you RYS application service.  If you don't provide manual updates or any other info we need for your RYS application, we will give you the work we have completed before our support ends. This service is intended for those who already have a training and want it to be registered with Yoga Alliance.

Guarantee: In the Done-for-You program, first thing we do is review your manual and delivery plan to make sure we feel it can meet the RYS application requirements. If it is not close to meeting the standards we will give you a full refund less any coaching hours you may choose to take. If we take on your application, we guarantee to work with you for one year to get your RYS approved. The work we complete takes 3-4 weeks to complete. It may take longer based on the time you need to update your manual due to missing core competencies.
