East Millcreek, Salt Lake City · 2027
You’ve done the work.
Now become an instrument of it.
You’re a good teacher. You know it. And something in you keeps asking whether good is enough. Most advanced trainings give experienced teachers more techniques to borrow. This one asks you to stop borrowing and start teaching your own. Designed exclusively for 200-hour certified teachers, this five-month advanced immersion takes you beyond technique into mastery—while building your path toward a 500-hour World Yoga Federation certification. This is where knowledge becomes wisdom, and where teaching becomes an art form that is entirely your own.
The Advanced YogaSoul Experience
This isn’t a continuation of your 200-hour training. It’s an entirely different chapter—one that asks more, gives more, and permanently changes the kind of teacher or practitioner you are.
This program is designed to take you beyond being a teacher or practitioner and opens your ability to become a genuine instrument of yoga—to carry the practice into the world in a way that is truly, unmistakably your own.
Over nine weekend immersions across five months, you’ll refine your asana through the lens of sacred geometry, go deep into advanced pranayama and meditation, explore the basics of Sanskrit, and integrate yoga philosophy into the texture of your daily life—not as theory, but as practice.
Rachel will lead you alongside a faculty of Utah’s most experienced yoga instructors—including Eric, who co-founded YogaSoul with Rachel in 2013 and holds a World Yoga Federation Grandmaster certification—and select master teachers from outside the state—bringing diverse expertise in sacred geometry, prenatal yoga, trauma-informed teaching, yoga business ethics, and more. One example is bringing in a nationally acclaimed out-of-state teacher for a full weekend immersion.
Two private one-on-one mentorship sessions with Rachel ensure your training is personal—not just rigorous. And throughout the program, you’ll be teaching weekly, so by the time you graduate, mastery feels like your natural ground.
Clarity Before You Commit
This program demands genuine commitment. It gives back in equal measure.
The teachers who stay stuck at “good” are almost always the ones who kept waiting for the right moment. This cohort is yours.
How This Works
Full Curriculum
Advanced, comprehensive, and fully transparent. Nothing hidden before you commit.
Program Breakdown
Every hour is intentional and counted toward your World Yoga Federation 500-hour certification pathway.
The 300-Hour is not just more training. It’s the program where you claim what you know, develop your unique voice, and stop teaching someone else’s yoga—and start teaching yours. You stop second-guessing your sequencing. You stop borrowing frameworks that never quite fit. You leave with a teaching presence that’s unmistakably yours—and students who can feel the difference.
2027 Dates
Dates subject to slight adjustment. Independent work—observation hours, self-study, workshop teaching—is completed between sessions on your own schedule.
Five Months · Three Phases

Common Questions
The questions we hear most often, answered honestly.
You must hold a 200-hour certification, but you don’t need to be currently teaching. One of the core requirements of this program is teaching weekly throughout. Rachel will help you find a venue or format if you don’t currently have one—this is part of the mentorship she provides.
Plan for daily yoga practice (4–6×/week), daily reading (about 20 minutes), weekly teaching, and periodic observation classes. There is also workshop development, Seva, and your mentored teaching module. The program is designed to be intensive but integrative—it should deepen your life, not add impossible strain to it.
Upon completion you receive a World Yoga Federation 300-Hour Certification. Combined with your 200-hour certificate, this positions you to apply for a World Yoga Federation 500-Hour designation—one of the most respected advanced credentials in yoga. Rachel will guide you through this process during your exit interview and mentorship sessions.
Yes. Rachel welcomes teachers trained in other lineages and programs—the diversity of experience enriches the cohort. Reach out to Rachel directly to discuss your background before enrolling so she can confirm it’s the right fit.
You’ll teach at least one class per week throughout the program—in a studio, a gym, at home, online, or in a community setting. Rachel will help you identify opportunities if needed. This is the most important developmental piece of the entire program: you learn yoga by living it, and you learn teaching by doing it.
Yes. You can pay in full or secure your place with a $500 deposit, with the balance due before the program begins. For specific arrangements, contact Rachel directly—she is committed to making this training accessible to those who are called to it.
From Our Graduates
This program has changed me and changed my life. I appreciate that the emphasis is on teaching. I was blessed with lifelong friends.
Your Teacher & Mentor
Rachel has sat with the same questions her 300-Hour students bring to this program—what it means to move past competence into real mastery, and how to carry the practice into every part of how you teach and live. She built this program for the teacher who is serious about the tradition and ready to do the deeper work.
She has been training teachers for over 18+ years and practicing yoga for nearly three decades. As a C-IAYT and World Yoga Federation Grandmaster, she is the most credentialed yoga educator in Utah to lead a 300-Hour advanced program—and among the most beloved by her students.
Her lineage traces directly to Sri T. Krishnamacharya, the father of modern yoga. She carries this lineage not as a museum piece but as a living practice—continuously applied, continuously refined, continuously shared with the teachers she trains.
She is joined in training by a faculty of Utah’s most experienced senior teachers—including Eric, who co-founded YogaSoul with Rachel in 2013 and holds a World Yoga Federation Grandmaster certification—and select master instructors from outside the state, each offering deep mastery in their specialty: sacred geometry, Sanskrit, prenatal yoga, yoga history, yoga business, and more.
Rachel’s 300-Hour graduates don’t just emerge as better teachers. They emerge as themselves—fully, finally, as yoga teachers.

2027 · Registration is Open
Spots in our 300-Hour Training are intentionally small. This is where serious teachers come to do serious work. You already know whether you’re ready—trust that.
You leave teaching from a place the 200-hour couldn’t give you yet. Your voice is unmistakably yours. Your students can feel it. You stop second-guessing your sequencing and start trusting what you know—because now you know why you know it.
The gap between the teacher you are and the teacher you sense you could be doesn’t close on its own. Another year of teaching from your current foundation is another year that gap stays exactly where it is.
Our 300-Hour graduates consistently say the same thing: the mastery they found here was already inside them. It just needed the right container.
