About the course

After a sold-out training this year we are super excited to invite applications to join lead teacher Becky Farbstein and faculty on the 12-month Yogarise 200hr Vinyasa Teacher Training 2025.

Designed to fit around your life, the training will be held at our Peckham studio, one weekend a month, so you can digest and process your learning, practise in between modules, work at your own pace and reconnect with your fellow trainees each month.

We have some familiar faces joining Becky on the training, bringing you a faculty of Senior Yoga Teachers each with their own passion, skillset and specialism.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

Some of the modules and themes from our training include: the roots of vinyasa (Ashtanga) yoga, history of yoga, philosophy (including how to teach philosophy + class theming).

You will learn sequencing methodology, an arm balance workshop, ‘Asana labs’ looking at backbends and forward bends.

There will be opportunity to look inside the ‘business of Yoga’, self-care + teaching burnout, cueing/demo/using your voice, curriculum development and teaching practice.

We will also cover injury management, and the contemporary yogi, assisting and adjusting, as well as teaching etiquette and managing the classroom.

You will receive a comprehensive Yoga Manual and certificate upon completion of the course.

Meet your lead teacher

Becky Farbstein

Becky is a Senior Yoga Teacher who has practised yoga since 2004 and been teaching since 2012. Becky teaches physically and intellectually challenging classes that focus on precise, contemporary anatomical understanding of the body through asana practice. She complements this modern approach to asana with a deep respect for the classical traditions of yoga, often weaving ancient philosophy into the themes of each class. Becky is grateful to all of her mentors and teachers, especially Jason Crandell, who is a constant source of inspiration for how to teach and practice yoga in an intelligent, accessible, grounded way.

Please email clare@yogarise.london to find out more.

I'VE NEVER PRACTISED WITH BECKY BEFORE. IS THAT AN ISSUE?

No, it’s not an issue. If you have practised with other members of our teacher training faculty please let us know.

Observation: You will be expected to observe at least three different teachers from an approved list – this task is designed to help new teachers develop their own style and find their own ‘voice’.

Unique to Yogarise

Once qualified, all graduates will be offered the opportunity to lead our Community Yoga classes for at least one month (up to six months!) in our studios and online. This is a paid teaching role, providing essential studio teaching experience – which is usually very hard to come by.

We want our trainees to feel part of the ‘Yogarise family’ and to gain valuable practical teaching experience. After a rigorous (and fun!) 200-hour training, plus at least one month’s teaching, you will be brimming with confidence, feeling well equipped to set up private classes, attend auditions for cover lists at other studios and put ‘Yogarise’ on your teaching CV.

Don’t miss your chance to find your inspiration and join a friendly community of like-minded Yogarisers!
