While our traditional teacher training program is nine months long, meeting one weekend per month, this option may not be one that meets everyone’s desired timeframe for studying to become a Therapeutic Yoga Instructor.  Often, we have students who are able to dedicate more time during the work week and are interested in fast tracking their experience with us.  For the past 13 years we have offered individuals the opportunity to study and mentor directly under our Founder, Nicole Zornitzer, E-RYT 2000, Yoga Therapist.
