Once registered, use the Schedule Your YTT Meeting button at the bottom right to select a time to meet with Lois. The purpose of this meeting is to provide a more detailed overview of training and ensure all of your questions are answered.

Due to our desire to keep YTT small and intimate, space in this training is limited. Early registration is highly recommended.

In addition, please note that attendance is mandatory in order to receive your certification. You must complete 200 contact hours with your teachers to meet Yoga Alliance requirements and Sonda Yoga is a registered Yoga Alliance Yoga School. Any exceptions must be approved before any absences with make-up requirements arranged.
