Are You Ready to Lead Further Training?

You’ve put in the hours. You’ve built your classes. You’ve guided students from their very first breath in practice to confident, independent practitioners.

And maybe you’ve started to wonder: Am I ready to train teachers myself?

For many trainers, that moment comes with both excitement and doubt.
Will anyone sign up? How do I stand out from other trainings? Will teachers trust me to take them to the next level?

These are real questions — and they deserve real answers.

Why Recognition Matters

When a teacher invests in Further Training, they’re choosing a mentor. Someone they believe has the depth of practice and the lived experience to guide them forward.

Recognition as an Experienced Yoga Teacher (EYT) or Senior Yoga Teacher (SYT) makes that experience visible at a glance:

• 2000+ teaching hours and 4+ years’ experience earns recognition as an EYT.
• 4000+ hours and 8+ years’ experience earns recognition as an SYT

How It Helps You Grow

When your recognition is visible, teachers see your training differently. It tells them:

• This trainer has walked the path I want to walk.
• This isn’t just another course — it’s a career step.
• I can trust this person to mentor me into the profession.

That kind of clarity builds confidence. And confidence is what fills courses.

Connected to the Trainer Revolution

From October 1st, every training listed on Yoga Pros will carry more than a syllabus. It will also display a Trainee Success Score — a measure of how trainers support their graduates after the course ends.

When you combine EYT/SYT recognition with a strong Success Score, you set yourself apart as a trainer who doesn’t just teach, but helps teachers thrive in the profession.

Your Next Step

Log into your profile and make sure your hours and experience are up to date.

• If you qualify, claim your recognition as an EYT or SYT.
• If you’re not there yet, map your path toward the benchmark — every class brings you closer.

Because the more visible your experience is, the easier it is for teachers to choose you — and the bigger the impact your training will have.
