Career Progression Routes

Our Level 3 Yoga Teacher Training Course gives you a solid foundation of skills, knowledge and experience to progress as a yoga teacher. A great natural progression is to enrol on our Level 4 Yoga Teacher Training Qualification. 

This builds on what you have already learnt on the Level 3 course, as well as allowing you to specialise in a specific type of yoga. In doing so you can increase your employability, and charge more for your classes as an expert in a particular field. 

What You’ll Learn

OriGym's Level 3 yoga teacher training course covers over 400 hours’ worth of both theoretical and practical content. 

You will complete the theory work online with the support of our qualified tutors. Whilst also attending regular practical workshops in various locations across the UK.

This includes learning how to maintain equality and diversity whilst teaching, recognising and handling complaints, what to do in situations that may arise during a class and how to keep records effectively.

• Planning a Level 3 Yoga Session

Learn how to plan and deliver a yoga session for both individuals and groups, taking into consideration the sequence and structure of the class. The module also covers how to adapt your teaching style for special populations such as pregnant women, children, the elderly, and those with disabilities. 

• Delivering a Level 3 Yoga Session 

Discover important teaching techniques for delivering a yoga class, including how to instruct effectively, motivate and build rapport with students. This knowledge will build your confidence when teaching both groups and one-to-one students.
