Can you provide me with proof of tuition payment for my own business or tax purposes?

Is the Hands-On Adjustments Training recognized by Yoga Alliance, even if it’s online?

YES! On September 25, 2020, Yoga Alliance confirmed it is now approving all online registrations until the end of 2021.

Is this training open to beginners? 

New students are welcome.

If I am pregnant, can I take this program?
