“If you want to learn something, read about it.
If you want to understand something, write about it.
If you want to master something, teach it.”
~ Yogi Bhajan
Teach Inclusive + Mindful Yoga!
​
At Bella Yoga, we know that there is a myriad of reasons why people begin a yoga practice, all of them deeply personal. With that understanding, it is our intention to share our passion for yoga with the community by providing a warm, safe, inclusive environment to develop the tools needed to incorporate yoga into everyday life. We also know that sometimes, as one’s practice grows, the desire to learn even more, dive deeper, and share this profound practice with others begins to awaken. This is when it is time to explore a Yoga Teacher Training Program.
​
The Bella Yoga Integrative Yoga Studies 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) Program offers a unique, integrated approach to studying, practicing, and teaching yoga.
​
​Our yoga teacher training program is life-changing and for everyone, whether you are interested in becoming a yoga teacher or wishing to simply deepen your understanding of yoga.

Words of Gratitude
"Thank you so much Bella Yoga Wellness for providing YTT training so close to home. This training has changed me forever. Alix and Niki made the experience personal and meaningful.

"The Bella Yoga YTT program gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to become a teacher. This was my second time doing YTT, as the first one I completed 5 years prior left me with many unanswered questions and unsure if I was fit to teach the practice I love. The Bella Yoga training answered all of those questions and walked us through all things sequencing, philosophy, energetics, safe transitioning and so much more. It reignited my passion for learning how to move through the asanas and connect with my body. They also gave us many opportunities to practice teaching which allowed me to get comfortable doing so before my real teaching journey began. Alix and Niki are both extremely knowledgeable and welcoming and I’m so glad I decided to join their training and become a part of their community." ~Zoey
