We are very pleased to announce SKY TING's Fall 2024 200HR Teacher Training program! The program will cover a comprehensive base of the foundational principles taught at the studio. It will be led by SKY TING’s co-founder Krissy Jones, Kate Posch, Amber Gregory, Christopher Golden, Jon Ziff Sint, and incredible guest lecturers including Katonah Yoga's® founder Nevine Michaan. 

Upon graduation, students can expect to have a thorough understanding of yoga, the tools to support a high quality home practice, and developed skills for teaching safe and effective classes that you can share in-person and online!


The program includes required Friday night and weekend lectures in addition to 10 hours of peer training/practice sessions and 5 hours of SKY TING class observations. Homework will be assigned weekly and correspondence with your assigned mentor will happen regularly. You will be provided with a SKY TING training manual and there is a supplemental book list that you will be responsible to purchase. All trainees receive unlimited memberships to SKY TING TV, studio classes, and discounts on merch + SKY TING trainings for the duration of TT.

Students should maintain a regular yoga practice at SKY TING outside of training, attending 3 classes per week. While this is not a mandatory requirement for certification, it is highly encouraged.
