Our Level 3 Yoga Teaching Diploma is an entry-level qualification, so you don’t need any prior qualifications to enrol. However, you must first complete the Level 3 course before you can progress to the Level 4 Yoga Diploma.

You must also be over 16 to undergo yoga teacher training with OriGym!

OriGym’s yoga teacher certifications are blended courses, meaning that you can progress through the modules at your own pace. On average, it typically takes 3-4 months to complete the Level 3 diploma and around 2-3 months for the Level 4 diploma.

But ultimately, you can progress through both courses at your own pace and study around your schedule.

When you complete a Level 3 or Level 4 yoga teacher training course, we highly recommend that you get the relevant insurance to operate as an instructor in the UK.

We do not provide this at OriGym and you will have to purchase it from a third-party provider! For more information, take a look at our yoga teacher insurance guide.

As an OriGym student you can complete the theory elements of your yoga instructing course online, from the comfort of your own home. These modules will be accessible via our custom-built eLearning Platform.

You’ll also be able to complete your practical workshops and assessments from one of OriGym’s dedicated training venues. These are located across the UK, allowing you to choose one suited to your needs.

OriGym’s eLearning Platform is packed with vital learning resources to support your yoga instructor course. This includes:

• Virtual modules
• Interactive quizzes
• Online lectures
• Ebooks

When completing these online modules you won’t be alone, as you’ll have access to 7-day tutor support via phone, email or live chat.

Students looking to hone their practical skills will also be pleased to note that you can attend an unlimited number of workshops. This will be conducted by one of our experienced tutors who will be able to provide you with valuable feedback.
