This course is open to anyone interested in using yoga as a tool to uncover deep truth, well-being, and healing. Our 200 hour yoga teacher training is a transformative, in-depth experience that exceeds certification requirements by fusing mind, body, and soul.
Teaching in the traditional yogic methodology, we view yoga as a lifestyle, a science, and an art. Our course combines Hatha and Vinyasa yoga with modern mystical yoga practices with the colorful histories, traditions, and philosophies of the past.
A yoga teacher training with Full Circle Yoga School can deepen your understanding of Prana (life-force energy), energetic healing, spirituality, crystals, and essential oils. These elements are woven into practical and scientific courses on kriyas, anatomy, sequencing, meditations, and breath — all in an inclusive and accepting atmosphere.
Our training doesn’t stop at a certificate. We’re committed to helping you grow and expand deeply on a personal level, so you can fully express yourself in every moment.
Many students experience rejuvenation from past experiences, detachment from emotional energies and a deep shifting of priorities. You will graduate from this yoga teacher training feeling expanded and empowered as an individual.
True yogic living teaches us to expand our consciousness and live a higher vibrational experience filled with beauty, presence, grace, and bliss. Abstaining from alcohol and coffee and eating a whole, vegetarian diet are just a few yogic practices we encourage students to follow during their online training. These small shifts can ignite enormous transformations in your home life that provide balance, peace, and wisdom on and off the mat.
Students from around the globe come to Costa Rica to share in a vibrant community that is supportive, curious, and soulful. The “yoga bubble” we create together during the immersion-style retreat is unique and truly life-changing. Our graduates speak to this profound sense of belonging, and experience guided by our culture of truth, courage, and love.
Upon completion of the course, students will receive certification and a 200hr Yoga Alliance certificate through Full Circle Yoga School, a Registered Yoga School (RYS).

What People are Saying
"I've just finished my Module 2 and I just wanted to say WOW, it was a lot, but I've just learned so much in those 2, it's amazing how I've managed to nearly get more information about things in those 2 modules than the entire 200 YTT course I did in Thailand with another school, it's just so detailed and the powerpoint presentations are amazing, the audios and the videos, just the whole content is spot on, teachers are available anytime, the whatsapp group chat always gets answered within minutes and it's just nice to know that the online training is not just online, it feels still very personal and is so authentic. I'm so glad this opportunity has opened up for me and I'm just super thankful and grateful to have the opportunity to learn from so many teachers, each on their own is so special in their personality and energetic level. Thank you so much for having me and teaching me all the things, which are also super important to hear for me in my personal life situation. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
