200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
The 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training at Twillow Lifestyle Academy is a comprehensive, Yoga Alliance Registered program designed to guide you into a deeper understanding of yoga as both a practice and a way of living.
Led by Jacqueline Richards (E-RYT 500), an experienced yoga educator with a strong foundation in movement, anatomy, and holistic wellness, alongside Tanys Coughlan, intuitive healer, teacher, and founder of Twillow Lifestyle Academy, this training offers a balanced and integrative approach to yoga education.
This program goes beyond postures to explore the full spectrum of yoga, including:
• Foundational and advanced asana (postures)
• Pranayama (breathwork) and nervous system regulation
• Meditation and mindfulness practices
• Yoga philosophy, including the Eight Limbs, Yamas, and Niyamas
• Functional anatomy and alignment for safe and effective teaching
• The energetic body, including chakras and awareness practices
• Teaching methodology, sequencing, cueing, and holding space
Throughout the training, students are supported in developing:
• A deeper connection to their own practice
• Confidence in leading and teaching classes
• The ability to adapt yoga for different bodies and needs
• A strong foundation in both the science and philosophy of yoga
At its core, this training is not only about becoming a yoga teacher — it is about personal transformation, self-awareness, and embodied understanding.
Graduates of the program will receive a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certification and will be eligible to register with Yoga Alliance.
Whether you are looking to teach or to deepen your personal journey, this program offers a supportive, inclusive, and expansive environment to explore yoga in a meaningful and lasting way.
