Yoga Teacher Training

Stay tuned for 2025 dates!

Yoga Home is so excited to continue offering the valuable yogic wisdom of our teacher Hansa Knox and her core syllabus for our yoga teacher training programs! Hansa has been leading her 265-hour Contemplative Yoga Teacher Training (CYTT) program for over two decades through her studio, PranaYoga and Ayurveda Mandala in Denver, CO. Hansa and her team have trained hundreds of yoga students to teach in a way that is in-line and deeply inspired by the Kripalu lineage and her teacher Swami Kripalvananda, among others. Through this training you will gain confidence in guiding a yoga class, as well as studying other tools of exploration, including concepts from the Vedic Sciences and modern adaptations of these practices.

We not only share the “how’s” but also the “whys” behind these ancient practices. This science is thousands of years old and we strive to honor its validity and structure while remaining relevant to today’s experience. We continue to ignite the curiosity of our students while witnessing the growth of confident, authentic, and empowered sādhaka’s (students). We are excited to share our voice to those who desire a taste of the depths of what yoga can offer. We aspire to foster a space for devoted practitioners, while nurturing and sharing a practice that can support individuals through all phases of their life.

This CYTT program is designed to be a foundation for our teacher Hansa’s 1,380-hour Yoga Cikitsā program, leading a path for our students to become Certified Yoga Therapists through International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT). Check out Hansa’s website for more information about requirements for her program HERE. We are blessed and deeply honored to be offering Hansa’s life’s work through Yoga Home!

Class size is intentionally limited to provide personal attention in an intimate atmosphere. We believe this promotes an encouraging and supportive class setting, allowing all students to find their voice as teachers. Apply now to reserve your spot!
