Honest Yoga 200-Hour Teacher Training
Begins September 20, 2025 | Plymouth, MN
Learn about what is covered in our 200 hour teacher training program during our informational session offered on Wednesday, May 14th at 5:30 pm at Honest Yoga.
Ever feel like something’s missing—even if you can’t name it?
Maybe you’ve been feeling stuck.
Maybe the routine is starting to wear on you.
Maybe life looks fine on the outside… but inside, something feels off.
You’ve been pouring yourself into everyone else—your job, your kids, your partner.
And somewhere along the way, you lost touch with the part of you that used to feel inspired, steady, or even just okay.
Sound familiar?
You’re not broken. You’re just burnt out, disconnected, and craving something real. Something just for you.
That’s what yoga teacher training can be.
Rooted in Vinyasa + Viniyoga
Our 200-hour training is built on the foundations of both Vinyasa and Viniyoga, two powerful and complementary lineages that honor movement, breath, and adaptability.
Vinyasa Yoga emphasizes breath-led movement. You’ll learn how to guide fluid, purposeful sequences where each posture flows into the next, supporting strength, mobility, and mindfulness. Vinyasa is dynamic, creative, and powerful—but never performative.
Viniyoga is therapeutic and personalized. It teaches you how to adapt the practice to the individual, not the other way around. Rooted in function over form, this approach respects where the student is physically, emotionally, and energetically in any given moment.
By blending these two lineages, you'll graduate with the tools to teach both strong and grounding flows—and to hold space for all types of students, in all seasons of life.
Here is a glimpse of what we will cover
-
Learn how to hold space for others with compassion, awareness, and care. You'll gain tools to teach in a way that honors all experiences and promotes nervous system safety.
-
Break down each pose so you understand the why—not just the what. You'll learn alignment that’s functional, not performative.
-
Explore how the body truly moves, breathes, and functions on and off the mat. This will help you cue with clarity and support students with all body types.
-
Learn to build classes that are intentional, intelligent, and impactful. No more guessing—just flows that feel good and make sense.
-
Yoga isn’t just movement—it’s a way of living. We’ll explore how to apply the teachings of yoga to everyday life, relationships, and challenges.
-
Go beyond the physical into the energetic layers of the body. We'll explore chakras, nadis, and the unseen aspects of your practice that affect how you feel.
-
Experience how breath can shift your mood, energy, and focus in just a few minutes. You’ll learn powerful breathing practices to use personally and in your classes.
-
Connect to the roots of yoga with depth and respect. We’ll explore ancient wisdom in a way that’s meaningful and relevant to your modern life.
-
Learn how to adapt your teaching for diverse groups—whether that’s beginners, older adults, athletes, or students with unique needs. Yoga is for everybody, and you’ll learn how to make that a reality.
This isn’t about mastering a handstand.

Meet Your Instructor
Sherry’s relationship with yoga began in 2005 at the suggestion of a friend. She quickly fell in love with the practice of linking breath with movement and finding stillness. The practice of yoga brought a sense of balance, awareness and peace to her life.
