This seven-weekend program is led by professional educator Alexandra DeSiato, E-RYT500—herself a graduate of the program. We start in January 2025, and we really hope you will join us. Sign up before December 1 for the early bird rate!

Our program gives you a thorough grounding in:

Your lead teacher, Alexandra DeSiato, has twenty years’ experience leading college classrooms and fifteen years’ experience teaching movement, including Pilates and yoga. A masterful communicator, Alexandra is coauthor of three books: Lifelong Yoga and Teaching Yoga Beyond the Poses, both cowritten with teacher training program director Sage Rountree, and Whole Mama Yoga, cowritten with day-one Carrboro Yoga teacher Lauren Sacks.

We meet seven weekends over four months. This model allows for a deeper dive and an opportunity for self-study, plus the freshness of a compact timeline.
