SAYF Certification
&
SAYF Education
SAYF Certification is our premier & primary program.
How to get started with SAYF?
First, ask yourself, "How do you best learn?"
For motivated self-learners, you can complete your SAYF Training online at your own pace, knowing that you can rely on the SAYF Group and Founder, Stephanie, for questions along the way.
Want more support? You can complete your SAYF Training with weekly mentoring with our Founder, Stephanie. Mentoring includes weekly Master Classes which can be attended either in-studio, live-streaming, or via recording (for up to 5 days after), group support both live and in a dedicated Group on this platform, and ongoing email access as you take the SAYF Training, and even beyond, if you choose! Offered Sept-May each year. You can join Mentoring for 3 to 9 months.
Not sure? The Monthly Unlimited Mentoring option will give you more support, while also requiring a deeper commitment from you. The great news is that you will likely learn more and will also earn more YTT or CE hours.
Yoga Teacher Training? We also have Yoga Alliance beginner and advanced RYT 200/300/500 teacher training available via Mentoring through Jaya Yoga RYS. With this option, you will graduate with both RYT and SAYF credentials!
