Frequently asked questions
regarding Level 2
Can I attend YOGAKIDS's LEVEL 2 Teacher Training if I have completed a different
Kids Yoga Teacher Training (i.e. not with YOGAKIDS Training Academy).
No, sorry. Our Training has gone through a rigorous accreditation process with Yoga Alliance Australia/International. It consists of our Level 1 & Level 2 trainings as two components of one whole Training that has been authorised by them.
Will you be running Level 2 Teacher Training in every capital city?
We will be running them in most major cities, but not all.
We run them where there is sufficient demand. They are run less often than the Level 1 Teacher Trainings so please take advantage of whatever opportunities you have to complete it
Is there a maximum time limit between doing Level 1 and Level 2?
Try to complete both courses with 3 or 4 months if possible. You need your 50 hour qualification to register with Yoga Alliance Australia - International.
Can I enrol in Level 2 as a follow-on course when I enrol in Level 1?
Absolutely, this is the usual way to enrol, and ensures your place in the upcoming LEVEL 2 Training. Please make sure you complete a Level 1 Training before attending Level 2.
You must have either completed a Level 1 Teacher Training
or be enrolled in one to have your enrolment in Level 2 accepted.
Is there any work required for Level 2?
Yes, please make sure you have taught at least 2 informal Practice Classes and
completed your Mindfulness Challenge. These contribute towards your 50 hours.
Can I teach before completing Level 2?
Yes certainly!! We generally encourage first teaching in a low pressure informal setting and then gaining your Level 2 certificate so you can have the minimal 50 hour qualification that is recognised by Yoga Alliance® (International/Australia) That also helps with getting insurance.
