Learn to teach yoga beyond just the poses! Our exceptional teachers share their love of traditional Tantric Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga, Ayurveda, Yoga Therapy, and Energy Medicine. Be part of an abundant community that encourages personal growth, health, and well-being. Our yoga certification programs goes beyond the required hours needed for Yoga Alliance registration at the RYT 200 or RYT 500 hour level. Dedicated seekers are also welcome to apply and join for self growth and community!

I highly recommend Devanadi (and this isn’t just for folks in the Minnesota area; Zoom is a well-used tool). The school does an incredible job of crafting a program that’s informative and transformative. The faculty teachers are delightful, warm, intelligent, and encouraging. They all provided a wide variety of teaching, experience, tradition, and knowledge. The investment—time and money—was well worth it.
