Top 10 Benefits of a 300 Hour YTT Program

1. Delve Into Yogic Tradition

Many people use their practice as a way to stay physically fit, and that’s totally fine! But this is just brushing the surface of what the yogic tradition means for a dedicated practitioner. Our 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training explores the roots of yoga and unfurls the sacred nature of this centuries-old discipline.

Yogi Aaron has much knowledge to impart and can start you on a path of lifelong learning. A spiritual lineage with so much history can be an amazing source of meaning and strength for your personal path to enlightenment—whatever that means for you!

2. Offer More As a Teacher

Without a doubt, a 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training will improve the foundation from which you teach and ensure you leave with increased confidence in your abilities. Our advanced training will give you a deeper understanding of both physical and energetic anatomy so you can become a safer, more confident teacher.

As a teacher, you have the ability to deeply affect the lives of your students. The more poses, adjustments, tips and tricks you know, the more effective you’ll be at guiding others on their yogic path. An advanced training directly benefits your students because each class you teach is for them and their own practice and development.

5. Friends For Life

Now more than ever, the global yoga community is important to each and every one of us. The more we share our love and light with each other, the better this world will be. That’s powerful!

7. Live More Yogically

When we each start on our own journey with yoga, most of us do so because we want to be more healthy and conscientious about our impact on our community and our planet. Our intentions to adhere to a whole, nourishing diet and a small footprint on Mother Earth are usually quite pure, but can be difficult to start or stick with when a busy life gets in the way.

During your month-long 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training, you will be provided with 3 healthy, fresh, farm-to-table meals per day. There is plenty of opportunity for your other fitness interests with our chemical-free lap pool, miles of beach for walking and running, and our outdoor fitness area. We have everything you need to nourish yourself mentally and physically, and to cultivate lasting habits that will become second nature when you return home.

For your eco-conscious sensibilities, Blue Osa Eco Resort is the best place to spend your month of immersion. We pride ourselves on our conservation-forward business practices, from our mindful use of resources like water and electricity to our efforts toward being a low-waste facility. We would love to team up with you to leave the smallest carbon footprint possible during your stay!

8. Practice, Practice, Practice

The old adage is true: “Practice makes perfect.” And while yoga isn’t about being perfect (that’s why it’s called a “practice!”), the more you teach, the better you’re going to be at it.

One of the most valuable aspects of our 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is that you get to practice what you’re learning while you’re learning it. You’ll teach your fellow trainees, the staff, and even some locals will get in on the fun!

9. Become a True Yogipreneur

A 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is hands-down the best way to advance your career as a teacher. Not only will you learn more about building an ethical, sustainable business during this program, but you’ll also get a leg up on other teachers who only have a 200 Hour training under their belt.

The knowledge you’ll gain during your advanced training will equip you with the tools to host international retreats, teach more in-depth classes or even open your own studio, resort or therapy center. This is the best thing you can do for yourself as a professional yoga instructor!

10. Don’t Just Teach. Lead!

If you are longing to make a difference in this world and want to know how to play life in a bigger way, Blue Osa’s 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is for you. You’ll learn more about the art of teaching and how you can become a leader in the yogic community.
