Welcome to the Path of Yoga family!

Path of Yoga teacher training school was founded in 2017 by James French and Rory Trollen – experienced yogis, teacher-trainers and good friends. Between them they have taught dozens of trainings all over the world.

Since then, Path of Yoga has evolved to become one of the best yoga teacher training schools in the world, helping to educate and nurture a huge number of YTT students. Our teacher training graduates have gone on to teach in their own communities, start businesses, and run retreats.

Although we have grown to offer several yoga teacher trainings each year, we have never lost our small family vibe which is at the heart and centre of everything we do.

As we are always striving for the highest quality, all of our 200 hour and 300 hour YTT courses are Yoga Alliance certified. This means you will be eligible to become a Yoga Alliance certified teacher, enabling you to teach world-wide.

Live Yoga Teacher Training Programs

Whilst our roots started in the UK, we now offer yoga teacher trainings in Thailand, India, and Peru. This gives you the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in a month of yoga, experience a different culture, and be grounded by a supportive group of teachers and peers on the same path.

Upon successful completion of our yoga teacher training program, you will gain your well earned 200 hour or 300 hour RYT certification.

During the course, you will stay in bespoke accommodation with modern comforts and have three delicious vegan meals each day. Our venues are always beautiful retreat centres, nestled in nature, carefully selected to provide a comfortable and safe space for you to develop your practice.

Online Yoga Teacher Training

Even through challenging times we have found ways to adapt and grow, whilst staying true to our values and authentic in our teaching. One of the most exciting developments has been the birth of our 200 hour Online YTT in 2021.

This has meant that the Path of Yoga teacher training program has been able to reach a wider community, and given more people the opportunity to learn and practice with us and our incredible teachers. This flexible model allows you to become a 200 hour Yoga Alliance certified teacher, whilst working around your own personal schedule and commitments.

Our teachers…

…are world class experienced yogis, from a variety of backgrounds, yogic styles and lineages. We are honoured to have this amazing teaching team come together, to create exceptional online and in-person Level 1 200 hour and Level 2 300 hour courses.

Our style…

…is a blend of traditional hatha and dynamic vinyasa. We have created our own unique and authentic union of the two, resulting in a strong yet nourishing practice. The essence and heart of our YTT courses is the philosophy and sacred traditions of the East, combined with a science based, modern approach from the West.

Our Yoga Alliance certified trainings will immerse you in hatha, vinyasa, breathwork, meditation, self-development, self-healing, conscious communication and conscious living. This is combined with workshops on anatomy, asana and adjustments, giving you all the skills necessary to become a successful yoga teacher.

Become a RYA certified yoga instructor today!

Join us on a transformational YTT. We will live and breathe yoga together, develop ourselves physically and mentally, and learn how to teach these transformative techniques to others. At the end of the month you will be able to become a certified Yoga Alliance 200 hour teacher. More importantly though, you will have the confidence, knowledge, and skills to evolve into a world class yoga teacher.

A Yoga Teacher Training is the beginning of a new chapter in your life. It is not the final objective or goal, but a beautiful step on the Path of Yoga.

    The course was extremely well structured and a lot of valuable knowledge and solid teachings were transmitted by the teachers: James, Akari and Chris. I feel that I was given all the tools to be able to teach by the end of it. The course also invited and allowed me to go on a deeper inner journey that created so much self-reflection and, inevitably, personal growth. I would definitely recommend Path of Yoga to everyone that asks me about where to deepen their knowledge. Everything else is a very welcome plus :)

    After searching for a YTT through Covid-19, the Path of Yoga seemed the most clear and transparent to me. The course structure and delivery was well thought out and authentic. The teachers are very knowledgeable and pass this on in honest way. I was able to do this course at my own pace and felt fully supported by the staff who were very quick to reply to any question (even technical!). Thanks to all at PoY, especially James, Shayana and Darina xx Look forward to joining a retreat one day xx

    Completing my 200 HR YTT with Path of Yoga School was one of the best gifts I have ever given myself. The course is laid out in a very thoughtful manner, each video lecture and asana practice building upon the next, culminating in an unshakeable foundation for us as new yoga teachers. The live calls with experienced teachers - and fellow coursemates - have been beautiful opportunities to dive even deeper into our studies. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to start their journey towards becoming a yoga teacher.

    Path of Yoga has made the online YTT 200 course extremely accessible and a great way to understand the yoga philosophy, asanas, pranayama, anatomy, communication and other areas. The videos are clear and concise whilst exploring areas in sufficient depth to plant the seeds of learning and spark interest to explore further. The teachers (James, Rory, Candy, Susan, Dr Yogi (Andrew)) give great variety and balance. The live calls allow you to ask questions and connect and learn from others in the same training. Each day has a different focus and the ability to go at your own pace is fantastic. I also look forward to some future in person training with Path of Yoga!
