Experience makes the difference
When you make the pivotal decision to embark on yoga teacher training, you know you’re in safe hands with Byron Yoga Centre and with The Yoga Room’s Judy Krupp. Judy’s yoga career spans 25 years and she now specialises in teacher training programs that are therapy based. Byron Yoga Centre is one of the longest running yoga schools in the country, established in 1988. You can feel confident you’ve chosen the best.
Byron Yoga Centre has partnered with The Yoga Room in St Ives to offer this Part time Level 1 200 hour training. The training will be run over 3 non-residential weekends in Sydney plus a 6 day residential intensive in Byron Bay at Byron Yoga Retreat Centre. The price includes all training sessions, training manual plus accommodation and meals for your stay in Byron Bay (airfares not included).
This is an ideal way to spread your yoga teacher training between part time and intensive components including some e-learning elements and journaling of self-practice.
Students can begin the e-learning study 6 weeks before the start of the course. The three weekends at The Yoga Room in St Ives start in February 2018 and will each be led by Judy Krupp, John Ogilvie and Kara Goodsell.
To complete the training, in May students will spend 6 days at Byron Yoga Retreat Centre. The main advantage of attending the Byron Yoga Retreat Centre is the access to specialist teachers, some of Australia’s leading teacher trainers, and the opportunity to teach public classes. You will also enjoy the experience of immersing yourself in yoga at the tranquil eco haven, the delicious vegetarian food and the special vibe of Byron Bay. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn from and be mentored by highly trained yoga teachers and teach public yoga classes.

Each of our lead teachers have many years of knowledge and expertise. Under the guidance of veteran yoga teachers Judy Krupp, John Ogilvie, Kara Goodsell and Marita Dortins the teaching staff on this course are experienced and dedicated. You’ll be inspired by our resident and guest yoga teachers alike, who ‘walk their talk’, living the yoga lifestyle, and are all knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects and about supporting you in your continuing yoga journey.
