200 HR JAROSA YOGA TEACHER TRAINING

WHY JAROSA YOGA?

Have you found yourself wondering “What’s the best teacher training format for me? What format provides an intimate, interactive experience most akin to the transformation and community building you’d receive in person—while offering the convenience, flexibility, and community of an online program?”  The answer lies in the Jarosa Yoga 200-Hour Teacher Training Program.

Our training offers the best of both worlds: a truly interactive, LIVE experience that fosters connection, learning, and transformation, all from the comfort of your own home.

We blend the dynamic flow of Vinyasa Yoga, the foundational strength of Hatha Yoga, and the powerful transformational Breath work into an online format that is accessible, flexible, and deeply engaging. This isn’t just about learning to teach yoga; it’s about a journey that helps you uncover your potential, deepen your practice, and build a supportive community along the way.

Imagine the richness of live weekly calls, personalized feedback on your poses, and the connection of moving through this experience with a group of like-minded women. Jarosa Yoga brings you the depth of an in-person training with all the flexibility of online learning.

WHAT MAKES  JAROSA YOGA UNIQUE?

The Pose Is Just the Beginning, not the end

In this training, you'll reframe your understanding of what an "advanced" yoga practice truly means. We move beyond traditional notions of perfect alignment, recognizing that each body is unique. Our focus is on teaching you how to observe and guide each student based on their individual needs. Rather than one-size-fits-all, you'll learn to customize your cues and adjustments to ensure every student feels supported and seen.

Yoga as a way of life

My passion lies in making yoga a living practice that extends far beyond the mat. This is not just a physical practice to escape your daily life; it's a way to enhance your everyday experiences, relationships, and career. Yoga is an ancient science with profound relevance to modern challenges, and throughout this training, we’ll explore how to align your life with your deepest values. We’ll study the Yoga Sutras and Bhagavad Gita as living wisdom, empowering you to live authentically and integrate yoga into every aspect of your life.

Breath Work Integration

Jarosa Yoga incorporates breath work alongside Hatha and Vinyasa flows. The powerful combination of breath and movement, awakens dormant energy, helping you tap into a deeper level of consciousness and vitality. This aspect of the training adds a unique dimension to your practice, bridging the gap between the physical, mental, an energetic realms of yoga

Meditation is Key

While many teacher trainings skim over meditation, we place equal emphasis on the mental and spiritual aspects of yoga. At Jarosa Yoga, breathwork (pranayama) and meditation are integral components of the training. You’ll even have the opportunity to develop your own personalized meditation practice, which you’ll refine and confidently share with others. This deep dive into meditation cultivates transformation from within and sets the foundation for a more holistic teaching approach.

Uncover Your Unique Style

This training is not about simply learning my methods; it’s about uncovering the teacher that already exists within you. By the end of the course, you’ll feel empowered to express your own voice and develop your unique teaching style, drawing from the deep wisdom you’ve cultivated through the journey.

HOW IT WORKS

The Jarosa Yoga 200-Hour Teacher Training is designed around three key components:

CORE MODULES

You’ll have access to a series of  video lectures that you can watch at your own pace, whenever it suits your schedule. These detailed lessons provide the foundational knowledge you need to excel in the program and as a future yoga teacher, you can return to them again and again as needed.  

Our pre-recorded video library is your go-to resource for mastering the essentials of yoga teacher training on your schedule. Designed to complement the live sessions, these high-quality, in-depth videos provide everything you need to build a solid foundation for teaching with confidence and authenticity.

These videos are designed to fit seamlessly into your life, giving you the flexibility to learn when and where it works best for you. Whether you’re reviewing foundational techniques or diving into advanced topics, this library empowers you to master each component of your training, step by step. With our pre-recorded content, you’ll feel prepared, supported, and ready to show up as the best version of yourself—every time.

LIVE SESSIONS

This is where the magic happens! These sessions are highly interactive, giving you a chance to engage deeply, whether you’re actively participating or listening and reflecting. If you miss a live call, no worries—you can easily catch up with the replays.

Here’s what you can expect from our live sessions:

  • Real-Time Teaching and Feedback: Practice poses, teaching techniques, and sequencing live with expert guidance, ensuring you refine your skills with confidence.
  • Interactive Q&A: Get your questions answered on the spot, helping you overcome challenges and deepen your understanding of yoga philosophy, anatomy, and teaching methods.
  • Community Connection: Build lasting relationships with your cohort, sharing insights and experiences in a supportive and uplifting environment.
  • Personalized Mentorship: Receive tailored feedback and encouragement to help you step into your unique voice and style as a yoga teacher.

By the time you complete your training, you’ll feel fully prepared to teach with skill, authenticity, and heart.

INTEGRATION & SUPPORT

We know life can get busy, and this journey is about transformation—not overwhelm. That’s why once a month, we dedicate an entire week to you—a chance to pause, catch up, and truly integrate what you’ve learned.

During these Integration Weeks, you’ll have the space to:

  • Catch Up: Review any missed content, revisit key concepts, and solidify your understanding.
  • Ask Questions: Join live Q&A sessions to get clarity and support from your mentors and peers.
  • Deepen Your Practice: Take time to embody the teachings, refine your skills, and connect more deeply with your personal growth.

These weeks are designed to ensure you feel supported, confident, and fully prepared to continue your training with ease and excitement. Because becoming a yoga teacher isn’t just about learning—it’s about living what you learn.

PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP

To further enhance your experience, we offer an optional Private Facebook Group where you can connect with your fellow students. This is a space for sharing resources, asking questions, and diving into meaningful discussions beyond the live calls. It’s a vital part of building a strong, supportive learning community throughout the training.

TIME COMMITMENT
We understand that life can be busy, so this program offers flexibility. You can complete the training within 20 weeks, progressing alongside your classmates, or take up to 12 months to finish, depending on your personal schedule. We recommend dedicating 8-10 hours per week to your studies, homework, and live calls.

ABOUT

edel keane

From the bustling world of Wall Street to the tranquility of the yoga mat, my journey has been one of profound transformation. After completing my studies with a Bachelor of Commerce degree and CPA certification, I spent 10 years in finance before taking a leap of faith to focus on raising my children as a stay-at-home mom. That time at home was transformative, igniting my passion for yoga and personal growth.

With over 1,000 hours of training in various yoga disciplines like Hatha, Kundalini, Vinyasa, and Yoga Nidra, I found a calling in teaching yoga. I opened a yoga studio and, when the world shifted during COVID, adapted by teaching my classes online. My experience has taught me that yoga is not just about perfecting poses but about the journey of self-discovery. This belief is at the heart of the 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training I developed, which is proudly approved by the Yoga Alliance. My background in commerce, combined with my yoga expertise, enables me to offer a unique perspective that blends business acumen with the richness and depth of yoga and meditation. I am passionate about guiding others on their journey of self-discovery, helping them uncover their potential and pursue their passion for yoga.

My approach to yoga is empathetic and grounded, emphasizing the unique journey each body and mind undertakes. As a mom of three, I understand the challenges of balancing family life with personal aspirations, making me uniquely equipped to support women transitioning into wellness careers. I combine my business acumen, with my deep commitment to personal growth and skill development, offering a holistic and practical approach to yoga teacher training. My approach emphasizes the importance of the journey over the destination, while empowering others to embrace their potential.
