Is It Time to Deepen Your Yoga Practice—or Teach on a New Level?
For many yoga practitioners, there comes a moment when the desire to go deeper becomes undeniable. Maybe the 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training was years ago. Maybe teaching has started to feel routine. Or maybe there’s a calling—not to start over, but to evolve.
That’s what Lauren Leduc explores in this episode of Deepen Your Yoga Practice—the difference an advanced 300-hour training can make, and how it helps seasoned teachers reconnect with their purpose, build confidence, and step into true leadership.
Why an Advanced Training?
When Lauren completed her 200-hour training in the jungles of Costa Rica back in 2013, she knew her life had changed. It gave her the framework she’d been craving for a more intentional, purposeful, and healthy life. Years later, when her own students began asking if she would ever lead a teacher training, Lauren knew she wanted to—but also knew she wasn’t quite ready.
That internal nudge led her to pursue a 300-hour Advanced YTT. Unlike the 200-hour, which equips new teachers with a strong foundation, the 300-hour is a choice to immerse yourself again—this time with experience, wisdom, and a desire to refine your practice and offerings.
What Makes a 300-Hour YTT Different?
An advanced yoga teacher training is for those who already hold a 200-hour certification and want to take things further. Not because they have to—but because they want to.
While a 200-hour training teaches what to teach, a 300-hour training helps refine how and why you teach. It moves you toward mastery, offering:
Advanced asana and sequencing
Deeper anatomy and energetic awareness
Philosophical integration and subtle body work
Business development rooted in ethics and purpose
Personal mentorship and peer collaboration
Opportunities to grow your teaching into retreats, series, workshops, or leadership roles
It’s a shift from teaching classes to guiding transformation—and from being a yoga teacher to becoming a yoga leader.
Who Is It For?
Lauren’s upcoming 300-hour training at True Love Yoga is for teachers who want to elevate. You might be a perfect fit if:
You’ve been teaching consistently but feel ready for something more
You want to refine your voice, sequencing, or ability to read energy
You’re craving community with other passionate, experienced teachers
You feel pulled to create offerings like retreats, series, or trainings
You want to expand your yoga business with integrity and vision
You’re ready to deepen into yoga as a lifestyle and legacy—not just a profession
