200-HR Yoga Teacher Training Application


Mahalo for your interest in our 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (YTT). Our teacher training curriculum will include traditional Yoga history and texts, Hawaiian culture and history, an introduction to trauma-informed Yoga practices, and social justice issues around Yoga teaching (e.g., decolonial spaces). HYI's mission is to provide nationally recognized yoga teacher training programs and continuing education courses that empower students and faculty to develop their unique yoga teaching style through service-based yoga.

So you know, we will be accepting up to 20 participants for each cohort . We are hoping to have diverse group to enrich the experience for everyone, so please just come with your authentic self. Please read through the details on our Pre-Enrollment page for all important details, signing this application states that you have read this in full.

After we receive your application, our team will review it and reach out to you by phone for a 30-minute call. This call will be a conversation with a lead instructor to confirm if the program is a good fit. If you are ready to enroll today, you will have the option at the end of this application to make payment and reserve your spot.

Your application will then be reviewed by a panel, the panel will not have access to your name when reviewing applications and each reviewer will utilize this rubric. The more honest you are the better - even if it's not a match this round, we will be holding annual cohorts, so keep that in mind.

We are looking forward to hearing your mo`olelo (story) and creating a brave space together. Me ke aloha,
HYI Training Team
