As part of the Yoga Alliance Social Credentialing system, teachers that register with Yoga Alliance must submit a review of the RYS training program they completed.

Feedback from trainees provides Registered Yoga Schools with the opportunity to understand their trainees’ experiences in order to continually improve their trainings.

By choosing to display comments, schools enable trainees to provide insight into a school’s culture and training which helps potential trainees choose the right teacher training for their individual path with yoga.

  Training Program held on Aug 15, 2022—May 31, 2023

  I am so thankful I found an affordable way to finally get my RYT-200. Going through a community college (and gaining college credits in the process!) was perfect for my schedule and my budget. It was also so nice to go through the process more slowly, as opposed to an immersive training, so I could digest the knowledge over time.

The certification program is designed to be completed in one year, which includes 200 hours of yoga training, philosophy, and academics, such as Nutrition, Anatomy, and First Aid. The two faculty members overseeing the program bring years of experience teaching in their fields and are knowledgeable and care about the integrity and growth of the program.

  My Yogi - Kristen Rooney- was so great. Very informative, very patient. She brought to my attention many of the spiritual practices of yoga (the yamas and niyamas) , and made them relevant to my practice . It was a solid learning experience and very enriching. I would take the course over again if i could because i enjoyed it so much.

  I am so glad I invested in PCC Yoga Teacher Training Program because I got so much out it. Even though it was for a year, it was worth it because the program has an amazing staff, we focused hours on practicing teaching and diving deep into the teachings of yoga philosophy. I met many wonderful people who I'm grateful to have shared this transformative experience with and happy to have been in community with them.

  The RYT Certificate program at Pasadena City College (PCC) was phenomenal. The Yoga, nutrition and kinesiology professors were knowledgeable and helpful. I strongly recommend the PCC RYT Certification program to anyone interested in teaching yoga.
