What to Expect

The Awakened Heart 200‑Hour Yoga Teacher Training at The Nest Collaborative is more than a certification—it is an initiatory journey into embodied presence, self‑inquiry, and skillful teaching. Rooted in decades of lived practice, this training is designed for students who feel called to deepen their relationship with yoga as a way of life, and for those who wish to share yoga with others in an authentic, accessible, and sustainable way. Our approach honors yoga as a body‑based, nervous‑system‑aware practice that meets people where they are. You will be guided to listen deeply—to your own body, to others, and to the wisdom that emerges through consistent practice. This training weaves together asana, breath, philosophy, meditation, subtle anatomy, sound, and self‑reflection, all held within a supportive, relational learning environment. Whether you intend to teach publicly, integrate yoga into another healing profession, or simply want to live your yoga more fully, this training offers a grounded, compassionate, and practical foundation. 2027 Program Dates​ ​ March 19-21, April 16-18, May 21-23, June 25-27, July 16-18, Aug 20-22, Sept 17-19, Oct 15-17, Nov 19-21 ​Fridays 6-8pm | Saturdays 10:30am-5:30pm | Sunday's 11:30am-6:30pm
