Kanza 2025 200 Hour Graduate This was a game changer in how I teach yoga, my understanding of anatomy and the purpose and active use of Asana. Highly recommend this course for anyone’s first foundational yoga teacher training or any additional yoga training. I would loved for it to have been longer, it fueled my desire to learn more.
OVERVIEW & SUMMARY
You will learn functional anatomy and the histories and philosophies of yoga through video series lectures. You will have a schedule to follow and homework assignments to ensure you are prepared for the 6 in-person intensive weekends. However, you will have freedom to adjust your personal study and practice to suit your schedule.
You will learn to address the needs of different student populations, different class lengths and difficulties, making you a versatile and effective teacher.
You will receive personalized teaching feedback regularly, and refine your understanding and teaching over time. The benefit of the longer course is the ability to integrate the information effectively.
Kanza 2025 200 Hour Graduate Craig and Becca are kind, knowledgeable, talented and caring instructors. It was a wonderful experience! I would take more courses from Kanza Yoga.
Am I Qualified?
This course requires self discipline and is open to all motivated learners. It is open to those who have never completed a teacher training before, as well as those who are already teachers. Those who are already teachers but wish to advance their teaching and personal practice are invited to take this course. We will focus on building the skills necessary to advance a personal practice and to evolve as a teacher.
Kanza 2025 200 Hour Graduate Becca and Craig provide a dynamic range of experience and expertise as it pertains to yoga. They provide a structured and engaging class environment. They help create the right expectation to know what it takes to get the student through the course!

Kanza 2025 200 Hour Graduate I loved the enthusiasm of both teachers during this program. Their passion for yoga shined through during each weekend we all got together. It was clear they wanted us all to succeed and offered every opportunity to ask questions and dig deeper. The material was extremely comprehensive and with each teaching exercise and class presentation, I grew exponentially. I gained a comfort standing up in front of people that I did not have at the beginning of the training and I am so thankful for both Craig and Becca for helping facilitate that growth.

Kanza 2025 200 Hour Graduate I love everything about 200-hour Kanza Teacher Training, from anterior pelvic tilts to posterior pelvic tilts, to learning to engage the correct muscles and relaxing the muscles. From learning how to do the postures correctly and what to engage and what to relax. Reciprocal inhibition, pelvis, learning how to engage the muscles in the back of the spine and learning how to contract rectus abdominis muscles, etc. It completely changed the way I Teach and how I practice. It was a life changing experience. Thanks Craig and Becca!!
