Application & Accreditation

Deciding to undertake Yoga Teacher Training is a big commitment, and it’s important to choose a course that is right for you… which may or may not be East of England Yoga School.

We are now accepting applications for our 2025 teaceher training course

Being a yoga teacher does not mean you have to be able to perform asana, or be a certain size or shape. It is your passion and desire to learn and develop your practice that is important.

We prefer that you have at least 2 to 3 years experience in practicing yoga. We do, however, treat everyone as an individual, and we understand that some people do not have the chance to attend classes or have a regular teacher, so please get in touch if you have any queries or concerns.

How to apply

Applying for our course couldn’t be easier, Simply send us your deposit and submit an application form and then sit back and let us do the rest. Feel free to contact us for a chat or if you have any questions.

We understand that you will be investing a lot for your training, so it’s important that you feel comfortable with our teaching styles and methods, and, of course, us with you too. If possible, you are welcome to attend a class with Laurence and have a chat in person. If you have any questions but are unable to attend a class, please contact us. We are here to help.

You are also welcome to come and visit us on a day of the current East of England Yoga School Training (until December 2024), which will give you more of an idea of what happens during training. Its best to visit us during a lunchtime. Get in touch for times and dates.

Once you have submitted both your deposit and application form and we have confirmed your place, we will send you our pre course email which will give you all the information you need about the first weekend, what to bring etc, and you will be given your first homework task (don’t worry its nothing scary) that you will need to do in advance of the first weekend. Then we will be in touch with you again to give you your nearer the time of the course and we will have a chat about setting up a payment plan for the rest of the course fees.

Your information is confidential and will only be seen by tutors involved with East of England Yoga School.

Besides that, there are no prerequisites (besides your regular practice), no pre-course study or reading, you come as you are in the place you are at that moment in time, and we go from there.
