YTT Retreat | Project Mindful Movement

Step into a 200-hour yoga teacher training designed to help you grow with confidence, support, and the grounding power of nature. This hybrid experience combines a self-paced online course with a 5-day in-person retreat in the Texas Hill Country, giving you time to absorb the teachings fully and bring them into practice at a steady, sustainable pace.

July 8–12, 2026 | The Retreat Ranch, Marble Falls, TX

This format is ideal for students who want depth without burnout. You’ll complete comprehensive online modules on yoga anatomy, philosophy, sequencing, and trauma-informed teaching, then gather in person for daily yoga and meditation, teaching labs, group discussion, and practices that support nervous system regulation in nature. With mentorship and community support woven throughout, you’ll be guided every step of the way.

Is This Training Right for You?

• You feel drawn to teach yoga, even if you’re not ready to leave your job
• You want a trauma-informed, nervous-system-aware training
• You’re looking for genuine connection, not a factory-style YTT

• You want certification without rushing or burning out

No experience is required, and there is no pressure to teach right away.
