Who Is This Training For?
This journey is for the healers, the seekers, and the changemakers—whether you're new to yoga or ready to step into your role as a certified teacher.
No prior certification is needed—just an open heart and a deep desire to transform. Our training centers Black and Brown bodies, honors queer BIPOC identities, and creates space for you to explore yoga as a tool for liberation, healing, and leadership.
You'll graduate with the knowledge and confidence to guide others through yoga, while also addressing the real-life challenges our communities face—like stress, trauma, burnout, depression, and insomnia.
This isn't just training. It's a personal revolution.

The Yogis Choice Academy Mission
At Yogis Choice Academy, our mission is to reclaim yoga as a pathway to healing, liberation, and leadership—especially for Black women, professionals, and queer BIPOC communities.
We offer soul-centered yoga teacher trainings that honor your full identity and centers the voices often left out of traditional yoga spaces. Led by a team of Black instructors, our programs blend cultural awareness, ancestral wisdom, and modern healing practices.
Whether you're deepening your personal practice or stepping into your calling as a teacher, this is a space to rise, to be seen, and to transform.
This is more than training—iit's a soul calling. A return to self. A movement toward collective healing and joy.
