The Dance Department of Mason Gross School of the Arts, in cooperation with Rutgers Recreation Services and Rutgers Community Arts, is now offering 200-Hour Vinyasa Yoga Registered Teacher Training and Certification via Lila Flow Yoga.

Lila Flow 200-hr Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training is an immersive program designed to elicit knowledgeable, inspired, and compassionate yoga teachers. We provide the tools to create intelligent and anatomically driven classes and encourage you to develop your individual style through playfulness and creativity. We have students creating and teaching from day one, so by the end of the training you are prepared to step into the seat of the Teacher with confidence and grace. Our curriculum builds sequentially to support your growth, while challenging you to embody the philosophy of yoga in your daily life, both on and off the mat.

Built into the training is the opportunity to continue your studies with Lila Flow Yoga. We have an online platform for all of our students to gain experience teaching if they wish to join, lifetime free enrollment in The Authentic Teacher, a virtual Pilates Mat training, an opportunity to co-teach in Love Surf Yoga retreats and assist during future Lila Flow YTTs abroad.

We are excited to once again offer this training in-person and bring in guests from NYC, LA, and Miami. While the training will be held in person, we will have three online Fridays where we shift our focus to the digital space to prepare you to teach and lead in both mediums.
