Continuing Education for
Yoga Teachers
Any program with the green CE logo is eligible for Yoga Alliance (YA) contact hours*—classroom hours in the physical presence of a qualified teacher (experts in their field and/or E-RYT 200 and above).
You can input your contact hours using your YA log in information. A paper certificate is not required by YA, but if you would like to receive one for any reason, the Integral Yoga® Teachers Association (IYTA) can provide you one for a $10 fee (free for IYTA members.)
A certified stamp from Satchidananda Ashram–Yogaville ensures the certificate’s authenticity. You can request an application form for this CE certificate during the program or by email.
* The final program schedule will determine the actual total hours.
