I had a fantastic experience completing my 200 Hour Registered Yoga School training virtually through ChildLight. Sally and Megan were professional, enthusiastic, inspiring, patient and organized. I am amazed at all the topics we covered, the in-depth meaningful conversations, time for listening, discussing, observing, reading, practicing, journaling and evolving. When the last day of training came to a close, I was left with a desire to learn more, continue practicing and an excitement about bringing yoga to my daily life. I am so excited to continue my yoga journey and am very grateful to ChildLight for providing me with a well-rounded, solid foundation. ~ Karen C.

FAQS & ANSWERS
Is there credit for training completed outside of ChildLight’s Training Program?
Due to our relationship with the Yoga Alliance, and the thorough, specific nature of our school’s curriculum, we do not provide credit for any training completed outside of ChildLight’s 200 Hour Registered Yoga School Training Program.
How much time will I need to study outside of the program schedule?
Prior to the start of the training, we ask that you read the text, True Yoga by Jennie Lee, in preparation for our philosophy discussions. There will be additional required study outside of the scheduled program hours.
Is there a written test that must be passed for certification?
In order to complete the certification process, you must take a written, take-home, open book exam. Details about this exam will be shared toward the end of our time together.
