Cleveland Clinic School of Yoga
Modern medicine meets ancient wisdom in our a one-of-a-kind yoga teacher training program.
At Cleveland Clinic, we believe that yoga should be accessible to everyone, regardless of age, health or physical fitness. We know body and breath awareness can calm stress and alleviate pain. Mindfulness, breath connection, gentle physical movement and a compassionate heart are cornerstones of our practice.
Our 200hr teacher training program gives you a strong basis in traditional hatha yoga. In addition, you will learn the essence of Cleveland Clinic Wellness Yoga - that simple movements, done mindfully, can have a profound effect as a method to teach stress management, improve physical health, change behavior patterns and support making healthier choices in life.
Due to the challenges presented in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made the difficult decision to suspend the YTT program. Cleveland Clinic is, first and foremost, a healthcare system, and we are committed to our organizational goals of prioritizing the delivery of first-class patient care and caregiver recognition. At this time, we must dedicate our resources to those needs. We understand that this news may be disappointing, and we apologize for that experience. We will continue to assess the our system environment over the course of the year, and plan to restart the program when it can be delivered in most impactful way, ensuring a comprehensive and hands-on learning experience for our students.
If you would like to be notified upon program restart, please email us at yoga@ccf.org, and request to join our mailing list and/or sign up to receive updates via the Integrative & Lifestyle Medicine Newsletter.
"The instructors have a wealth of experience and are compassionate and dedicated. I was excited to learn how to modify traditional yoga poses to make them accessible to everyone, not just a select few. The teacher training program was wonderful in exploring yoga not only in regard to physical health, but emotional/spiritual health as well."
