Important notes:
- If you are not a current Iyengar Yoga student, please register for a weekly class with a CIYT, and consider applying for the Advanced Studies Program in 2017 or later.
- This program does NOT result in certification as an Iyengar Yoga Teacher. However, aspiring teachers will be actively mentored in preparation for Iyengar teaching certification (a multi-year process).
- Iyengar Yoga is a comprehensive method unto itself. This is NOT a program for teachers of other methods who wish to extract Iyengar methodology. The path of CIYT requires exclusive commitment to Iyengar Yoga.
