YOGA SARANA & KARMA TEACHERS

 

Yoga Sarana & Karma Teachers: 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training

Yoga Sarana and Karma Teachers are pleased to announce their partnership for a 200-hour Yoga Alliance registered teacher training program commencing Fall 2025. This partnership unites a dedicated studio with a well established training program, offering a comprehensive path for students to expand their yoga knowledge, develop their study of self, and learn skills to teach yoga.

The program is taught in part by Jennifer Clarke who brings two decades of experience of practice and teaching. Jennifer founded her own Yoga Alliance registered program, owned her own studio in Vancouver BC and served as lead teacher of Karma Teachers in Vancouver. Jennifer will be teaching alongside beloved Yoga Sarana teachers Vic Mehta and Melanie Batycky as well as other guest teachers. This Hatha yoga training includes a comprehensive 

Iyengar module, honoring this lineage that anchors 

Yoga Sarana's classes.

This training is an opportunity to dive deep into ancient yogic wisdom and develop as a teacher of Yoga. The program serves both aspiring teachers and those who wish to enrich their personal practice.

 

This eight-week YOGA ALLIANCE CERTIFIED course runs from October 17 to December 7 and includes practice of asana and pranayama, teaching methodologies, yogic philosophy, practice teaching and exam.
Schedule is as follows: 

IN PERSON
Fridays 2:30PM-8:00PM
Sundays 11:30AM-7:30PM

ONLINE
Tuesday 4:30PM-6:30PM

 Thursdays 4:30PM-6:30PM

 

 "This is so much more than a yoga teacher training. It is life training, warrior training, a transformation." The program provides space to uncover your essential nature: strong, beautiful, powerful, and part of the greater whole.

Joining this program means becoming part of a supportive community with opportunities for ongoing education and teaching support. These training programs witness extraordinary student growth. Deep connections form naturally, friendships often last for years, and the experience proves deeply rewarding for everyone who participates.

What is IYENGAR Yoga

What is IYENGAR Yoga

What is IYENGAR Yoga

Iyengar Yoga, is named for B. K. S. Iyengar and described in his bestselling book Light on Yoga (1966). This style has an emphasis on detail, precision and alignment; using props in the performance of yoga postures 

such as belts, blocks, and blankets, as aids for getting into poses correctly, minimizing the risk of injury or strain. Teachers receive extensive training - measured in years, not hours.  While we have other forms of yoga at Yoga Sarana but we keep the foundations set in Iyengar in everything we do.
