Teacher Training Course

An eighteen month yoga teacher training course with some of the top expert yoga practitioners in their respective fields as tutors


Uniquely this teacher training course will include 4 intensive week-long residential units as well as 3 one-day intensives duringthe duration of the course

see details of programme here


The course will enable students to hold the Internationally accredited Yoga Alliance Certification (200hrs) as well as hold British Wheel of Yoga accreditation

The Teacher Training Programme is designed to be innovative, challenging, and enjoyable, while being structured as a course of intensive study. Assessment is ongoing throughout the course, & students are expected to complete/undertake independent study, practice and reading. Each intensive course day will include practice, formal practical study/lecture time, unsupervised study/reading time, discussion time, & ‘silent time’.

Homework and essays will be assigned. A minimum number of non-contact hours are stipulated in the course curriculum, while to successfully graduate, all students will be required to pass all areas of the course, write 2 essays (one A&P, one Philosophy), produce a Thesis (elected subject), sit a Multiple Choice A&P questionnaire, produce required Class Plans, a Teacher’s Manual, & teach 3 planned classes & make small group presentations while being “assessed”.


The Yoga Academy teachers are among the most experienced & renowned teachers in the UK, offering a curriculum & training method that offers broad & in-depth study/practice alongside what we believe to be the best start available into the teaching of yoga to others.

Simon Low Yoga Academy Course Director

Simon Low is a registered teacher (RYT 500) with the Yoga Alliance & director of The Yoga Academy.Simon Low

Simon, founder & director of The Yoga Academy & co-founder of triyoga, in London’s Primrose Hill, has been teaching yoga internationally for 15 years. Simon’s teaching reflects his training and ongoing studies with international teachers in many forms of Hatha and Classical yoga. After originally completing and becoming certified in Teacher Training and Advanced Yoga Therapy with Dr. Larry Payne at Samata International in Los Angeles, California, Simon has developed a unique and personal teaching style. While the classical teachings of Sri T Krishnamacharya and his primary students inform the foundations of Simon’s ‘yin and yang’ style yoga experience, his own teachings are augmented by a keen interest in Okido Yoga, and a wide and varied journey through many other systems and schools of Hatha Yoga, bodywork, psychology and disciplines such as The Alexander Technique, Pilates, and Chi Kung.

While keeping classes and study educational, diverse, focused and fun, Simon encourages the individual to remain mindfully focused toward internal exploration as a guide to experiencing yoga as it is meant to be practiced – a personal journey toward freedom, clarity, centeredness and the revealing and nurturing of the True Self-your Essence.
