200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Course
Intelligent Yoga Teacher Training (IYTT) is the UK's premiere yoga teacher training course.
All sessions are live and delivered by an elite group of senior yoga teachers at the top of their field, IYTT offers a spacious, immersive modular structure which provides time and space for profound learning, integration and growth.
We offer a uniquely incisive, thoughtful and intelligent approach to yoga teacher training, driven by current scientific developments in anatomy and movement research.
Each of the teaching team draws on decades of practical experience of yoga, inspired particularly by the work of Vanda Scaravelli and somatic, embodied practices.
IYTT is the future of teacher training.
Throughout the course, we’ll investigate how our bodies move, how we respond to stimuli and how we can cultivate an atmosphere of authentic enquiry and exploration. You'll be encouraged to gain a clear understanding of how you move and how you can share that knowledge with all those who practice with you, to create new, healthier approaches to living and moving.
Yoga teacher training is a priceless investment in yourself,
your well-being, and your future

Supportive Mentoring
We've created a collaborative and supportive learning environment and actively enjoy supporting you throughout your training and beyond.
At IYTT, you are never just a number. We continue to work with you well beyond your time on the course. We have created a mentoring program for all trainees which includes structured 1:1 mentor meetings and group supervision meetings with me, Catherine Annis.
Each module is supported by at least one teaching assistant who is a recent IYTT graduate and offers advice and support throughout the course.
At the end of each IYTT programme, there's an opportunity for graduates to join the teaching team as teaching assistants. This is a valuable chance to review the training from the other side, to work alongside the teaching team, learning how we hold space and deliver this ground breaking teacher training programme.
Become an effective, safe and successful yoga teacher. Whether you are looking to turn your passion for yoga into a career, or you simply want to deepen your understanding of yoga, this yoga teacher training course offers the knowledge and experience you seek.
"The IYTT programme has radically liberated my movement practice and expanded the way I hold space for others.
The programme encourages deep attention to the realities of our bodies - to better support our ability to find freedom and facilitate our students to do the same. The course offers a sophisticated approach to study, rooted in sensorial attunement, philosophical discourse and the most up to date research in anatomy.
It is a life changing experience, highly relevant for its insights into Yoga’s past and in its commitment to foster dynamic, curious teachers for the future."
