Welcome to
Continuing Education for Yoga Teaching Excellence (CEYTE)
"The Yoga Teacher’s path to knowing more, teaching more deeply and Continuous Learning"
CEYTE
Becoming a Yoga teacher through a basic 200 hour program is just the beginning of a beautiful, inspiring but demanding career. To teach Yoga wisely, safely and authentically requires the same commitment that we make about any career choice. With the prevalence of so many teacher training programs that
promise a “fast-track” to becoming a teacher, we want RYTs to know there is always more to learn. Some choose to “dabble” and that is fine - no judgement. But we know for the serious minded how difficult it is to distinguish yourself as a professional teacher vs. an instructor. The choice of course is yours but if you are seeking a deeper level of knowledge, we can help you enhance your current skills and most importantly, open your mind to endless possibilities. Yoga is emerging as an important component of integrative health and is being offered in a wide variety of wellness and healthcare
settings.

The Instructors
We are teachers who support and love our fellow teachers and know only too well the deficiencies you can feel as a new teacher and even an experienced one who has found him/herself in a bit of a teaching rut. We have designed a program of “Learning Shorts” delivered as CEUs that meet the requirements for Yoga Alliance of how you can continue your learning journey and to gain new knowledge.
We can help you further your expertise by learning how to apply new skills in a class. We can help you fill those gaps through our preliminary but expanding catalog of three hour courses located right in Suffern, NY.
