• Option 1: Take Our Online Course for 300 RYT. It is split into two online, self-paced sections: Modules 1 – 3 + BONUS & Modules 4 – 6.
• Option 2: Combine in-person retreat immersions with online courses for 300 RYT. This hybrid option gives you the best of both worlds. Most Yoga Training Immersion retreats are held in Hawaii, although we have other options available – please inquire! Although Kauai is our home base, we also provide Advanced Yoga Training Immersions in other beautiful locations.

We love getting creative with options.
