The Sacred Seed Ayurveda & Yoga Teacher Training Certification Programs are designed for both new and advanced yoga practitioners to advance in the science of yoga & Ayurveda.
What makes this yoga teacher training certification program so unique?
1 We integrate the teachings of yoga postures with yoga philosophy, meditation and ayurveda – the ancient science of longevity including proper yoga diet, nutrition and health & healing practices. This means that your whole training will be infused with ayurveda.
Ayurveda is the sister science of yoga and when they are practiced together the practitioner gains an integrated holistic approach to their yoga practice and teaching. Through this knowledge one builds the understanding and tools to enhance the health & well-being of their family, students, and clients. All ayurvedic sessions will be taught and facilitated by Jai Kai who is an ayurvedic practitioner and has studied with renowned ayurvedic practitioners in India and North America.
2 We offer the yoga teachers training program to small groups at an affordable price so everyone can get personal attention and benefit financially. We also offer payment plan options that best suit the students needs. All students will have the opportunity to refine their practice and seek guidance from teachers and mentors to enhance their success.
3 Participants will learn to develop a personal yoga practice appropriate for both individuals and class settings while learning to foster a connection with their own inner wisdom and voice. Working with individuals and clients, one on one, is a new and exciting opportunity to teach in a more individualized and therapeutic way.
4 We provide ongoing support for new teachers wanting to teach and continue their education. Graduates of our Yoga Teacher Training Programs may have the opportunity to assist and teach yoga classes for our school and studio. Also, as a part of continuing education, graduates are offered more advanced courses and mentorship programs exclusively for our Sacred Seed Yoga & Ayurveda Graduates to enhance their career as a yoga instructor and health practitioner.

“Sacred Seed teacher training has a “whole-life” spiritual approach to yoga, which incorporates meditation, energy work, Ayurveda, philosophy and asana training/teaching. As a result, I have immensely enjoyed and learned so much more from this training than I thought possible. The topics covered in this training do not just teach you how to ‘do yoga’ but how to ‘live yoga’ daily. For me, the difference between doing yoga and living yoga has been life changing and is something that I will continue learn about over the years. Jai and Aman gave all of the students in our training a safe place to learn not only about the course material but also about themselves, something that I will always be grateful for.”
