Please submit an overview of the training you have completed to date and a copy of your 200 Hour Certificate from the school you trained from. This will help us to determine any additional lessons that you will be required to complete. The RYT300® Upgrade will continue to deepen your understanding of Yoga as it builds on all of the RYT200® material. For the Upgrade to RYT500®, you will have written assignments and practical work to complete month by month. As well, you need to attend a certain number of hours in Hatha Yoga classes or workshops for Teachers and Teachers in Training, with Independent SOYA Faculty.
