Ready to take your knowledge and teachings of Yoga to the next level? Our 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification is a comprehensive, multi-layered program that will challenge you on all levels of being. Individual modules are open to anyone looking to go deeper in their own practice, expand their knowledge and experience unity consciousness, the connection and light that we all share.
Your 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training opened the door and laid the foundation. As the journey continues, so our awareness grows. We dive further into practices that nourish us on all levels – physical, energetic, emotional and mental. We soothe our souls and begin to find our own intuitive path in both our personal practice and how we share this powerful gift with others.
We step into the light and discover that we are both “the experience and the experiencer, the dance and the dancer.”
In continuation from our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification, an emphasis is placed on trauma-informed practices and practices to support our mental well-being. Sangha Yoga Collective is a philosophy first school that honours the rich history and culture of Yoga.
This 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training Certificate is a community effort, inspired by our students, personal practice and a combined 60+ years of teaching and education. The trainings are brought to you by: Tracy Jennings-Hill of A Deeper Collective in Atlanta, GA, Tracy Glennon of Drop Yoga in Ottawa and Lisa Greenbaum, the founder of this school. We are blessed and grateful to share this journey with you.

Lisa is the reason I can and love teaching yoga, coming all the way to NZ. She totally understood that we can teach in a range of environments including gyms and how that differs to more intense teaching styles. She instilled in me that yoga is for every-body and enabled me to bring yoga to hundreds. I even taught some classes while cruising to Antarctica, so please know your teaching has really reached the ends of the earth! – Felicity W.
I did my first ever yoga teacher training with Lisa and it began my lifelong journey with the practice. Lisa was an amazing teacher. Kind, gentle, knowledgeable and patient. I loved the way she taught our classes, and I have taken a lot of the way she taught into how I teach and still teach. She taught us how to teach in a trauma aware style from day one, so it just became the norm for the way I teach. A skill I have been thankful for every day. I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you are looking for an amazing teacher and experience, on your yoga journey, then please take the journey with Lisa. – Sue M. (Australia)
