ISHTA Immersion Program

This program has been created for yoga teachers who received their 200-Hour certification in a program outside of the ISHTA lineage. The program is also a great option for practitioners who are interested in deepening their knowledge of yoga and the ISHTA lineage without enrolling in the full teacher certification program. The ISHTA Immersion Program consists of approximately 30 hours of lectures given by Yogiraj Alan Finger and senior ISHTA teachers.

For teacher trainees coming to ISHTA from another yoga school, the Immersion Program is a requirement for entrance into our 300-Hour program.

  • Entry/Bonding Circle
  • What Is ISHTA?
  • ISHTA Tantra
