Jivamukti Yoga offers scholarships for online and residential programs in variable amounts to help offset the costs of JYTT, with the primary criteria to qualify being financial need, based on your income and your household size.
Qualified applicants are then evaluated based on dedication and professional commitment to Yoga. Email application to tt@jivamuktiyoga.com
Primarily you and your curiosity! Anyone who wishes to immerse in the Jivamukti Method can take this course. The main requirement is to be present.
You can find the prerequisites for the 300hr Teacher Training here; the guidelines for how to prepare, how long you should practice asana before you take the TT, etc. are the same. Otherwise, you need a computer, laptop or tablet, a yoga mat and props (min. two blocks, one belt, one blanket). A notebook and pen. One practice student for select sessions.
Platform: You can access the training via a computer, iPad, Android tablet, iPhone or Android phone, ideally with high speed WLAN internet.
Practice: You should have a place to practice and study which is clutter and distraction free, and at least spacious enough to accommodate yourself and your “practice student” safely. You will need a clear space on a sturdy wall at least the width of a yoga mat. You might consider creating a special, devotional space to enhance the spiritual mood of the Teacher Training. There will be optional recommendations given at the beginning of the TT on how to create an altar.
Self Care: Between the lectures, theoretical sections, and meditation, you could be sitting a lot. We recommend you find a comfortable, supported seat. During lectures, you might find a distraction free way of listening and walking. The TT is as mindful as the yoga practice itself. A state of steadiness (support) and an joy (free of pain) is the goal. Take breaks when you need!
For the ten days residential: A packing list will be provided.
We encourage participants to follow our guidelines to cultivate a healthy vegan diet throughout the intense period of yoga practice during online TT and beyond, as they would in the on-site TT.
Just as the residential TT gives on-site participants a chance to experience the amazing benefits of veganism combined with yoga, online participants will receive an introductory video along with recipes and guidelines to help facilitate that transition with ease and joy.
The week long residential will include three gourmet vegan meals.
You will watch the course “on demand” on a learning platform. There are about 180 lessons total between 20 minutes and 2 hours. They include meditation, asana practice, pranayama, lectures, and satsang.
You watch the lessons in order but can do so at your own schedule over the course of 3 months – we recommend that you plan to do at least 2-4 full TT days over the course of one week to keep up with the content of the mentor meetings. But, you can practice a meditation in the morning, go to work, do the next class later, and so on, so that it works for you.
Calculate your offset here:
All students will become part of a small study group of 2-3 within the same timezone. Over the course of the three months, you are required to meet for a minimum of 6 times on Zoom, or in person if you live in the area, to practice and study together.
It can be as short as 15min to review the last lecture or practice chanting. Ideally you would include some asana teaching practice in every session (e.g. teaching each other Magic 10, parts of Class 6 and 7)
The mentor meetings are mandatory, and conducted live on Zoom. Meetings will take 1-2 hours during the course and groups/times will be assigned based on what makes sense with students local timezones.
Dates will be published in advance. You will also take the midterm exam during mentor meetings on Zoom. If you cannot attend a meeting please notify tt@jivamuktiyoga.com as soon as possible, but try to limit cancellations.
Online mentor meeting dates will be confirmed soon.
Midterm Exam will be taken via a live Zoom call with your mentor, which takes about 90-120 minutes total. Final review will be taken on-site in December 2026.
Yes, upon 100% successful completion of all classes, sessions, lectures, and mentor meetings, and passing the midterm and final examinations, you will be fully certified as a Jivamukti Yoga Teacher.
APPLICATION
REQUIREMENTS
1) Letter of recommendation
2) Answering 5 questions about yourself and your yoga practice.
Prerequisites
Preparing for the JYTT is a journey in itself, between reading modern and classic yoga texts, writing spiritual commentaries, practicing and memorizing two different 90 minute Jivamukti classes, and getting familiar with anatomy concepts. Don’t miss the opportunity to be well prepared. As the training is very intense schedule wise and full of profound content, the more time you spend preparing the more likely it will be you can remain grounded during the experience. Please be sure to refer to the expanded instructions in the registration, also published here.
