LUCIE
Our 300hr online teacher training is for you if you...
- Have completed your 200hr and feel ready to go deeper into how yoga actually works in the body and nervous system.
- Are you tired of relying on borrowed sequences and want to design classes with clarity, intelligence and intention
- Feel curious about why practices work, not just how to teach them, and want to confidently weave neuroscience, philosophy and subtle body understanding into your teaching
- Want a deeper grasp of anatomy, biomechanics and accessible yoga so you can support real bodies without second guessing yourself
- Need a flexible, online training with no deadline that fits around life and work while still offering real depth, rigour and challenge
- Value ethical teaching and want up-to-date, evidence-informed education you can trust, with content that evolves as research evolves.
- Are ready to build a teaching career that is sustainable, ethical, and authentically yours.
Our mission is simple...
to offer yoga education that evolves with teachers and stays responsive to research.
This training is built on the belief that good teaching is not just about inspiration or completing hours, but about being able to make clear, informed choices in real teaching situations.
We support teachers to understand what they are doing, why they are doing it and how to adapt responsibly when working with real people, real bodies and real challenges. The result is teaching that feels grounded, ethical and sustainable over time.
KATE
"The depth of education is exceptional. Anatomy, neuroscience, philosophy, breath, sequencing and subtle body work are woven together in a way that actually makes sense on the mat and in the classroom. Nothing felt abstract or performative. Everything felt usable, grounded and relevant to real bodies and real lives.
What stood out most was the care. The teaching is thoughtful, inclusive and deeply human. I felt supported to question old habits, unlearn what wasn’t serving me and trust my own intelligence as a teacher. I didn’t just come out with new skills, I came out with clarity, confidence and a much stronger sense of who I am as a teacher."
SAHAR
"I used to think of yoga as an endless maze of techniques and branches, and I often wondered how I was supposed to learn all of it.
In a way, that’s still true, yoga really is a vast world with something new to discover every day. The difference now is that through the way Hannah and Celest teach, I’ve gained much more confidence. I can stay genuinely curious and open to learning, while also feeling capable of using what I’ve already learned in a practical, grounded way.
The workbooks and modules have been, and continue to be, my most valuable resources for learning yoga for the modern world, while still deeply respecting yogic traditions.
I visit my portal every day, knowing that there is always some detail waiting to be understood more clearly, with the guidance of Hannah and Celest."
KHALA
"If you are looking for a yoga teacher training that is as practical as it is soulful, look no further than Alba!
Having done both the Alba 200hr and 300hr courses, I can vouch for the incredible quality of their education.
Cel and Hannah are a power duo who make learning feel fun and accessible. This 300hr training is clearly a labor of love, backed by so much effort and care. The support and knowledge provided have allowed me to truly find my voice as a teacher.
The lifetime access to materials and the most amazing community is truly life-changing and so priceless!"

HOW IT WORKS
The Alba Online 300hr Teacher Training provides you with everything you need to advance your teaching.
STEP ONE
Self-paced Curriculum
-
You move through a structured, self-paced curriculum that combines pre-recorded teaching with live online sessions. This allows you to fit the training around work, family and real life.
-
You receive lifetime access to the full core curriculum, recordings of all live sessions and the complete 300-hour Alba manuals, digital resources and printable worksheets. These materials are designed not just for the training itself, but as long-term reference tools you can return to as your teaching evolves.
STEP TWO
Live Calls & Workshops
-
Over 12 months, you join Hannah and Celest for live lectures, Q&As, workshops and expert guest sessions. The module schedule runs on a rolling basis, so you can begin at any point during the year.
-
These live sessions are where concepts are clarified, questions are worked through and theory is translated into practical teaching decisions.
-
You study alongside a committed community of teachers and receive ongoing support, accountability and real-time teaching insight, all from your own home.
STEP THREE
Certification & Alumni Support
-
Certification is completed through a combination of quizzes, teaching assessments, case studies and reflective work. All components are completed at your own pace, with no deadlines.
-
After graduating, you become part of the Alba alumni community and are invited to join ongoing monthly Q&A and catch-up calls. These sessions offer continued support, space to ask questions and practical discussion as your teaching develops and your student population changes.
* This course is currently in the approval process with Yoga Alliance.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Our 300hr Online Training is divided into six modules...
The Neuroscience of Yoga
This module explores how the nervous system shapes movement, breath, balance, and perception.
You will learn practical neuroanatomy and simple drills that create immediate, noticeable changes in how people move and feel. We cover sensory receptors, brain regions involved in movement and posture, and techniques such as neural flossing, all taught in a way that is directly applicable to yoga teaching.
The Art of Creative Sequencing
We treat creative sequencing like a language. One that communicates intention, supports the nervous system, respects how bodies learn and creates experiences that feel meaningful rather than performative.
The training weaves together yogic philosophy, subtle body understanding and modern neuroscience, so sequencing becomes something you embody and trust rather than something you copy.
Advanced Asana and Teaching Skills
In this module, advanced asana is explored through detailed pose breakdowns, treating complex postures as a process of learning rather than performance.
Alongside this, the training focuses on advanced neuro-informed adjustments, weaving biomechanics, neuroanatomy and nervous system understanding into hands-on work that supports coordination, confidence and long-term learning rather than force or placement.
Yoga Philosophy and Accessible Yoga
Yoga philosophy is treated as a living framework rather than static theory. Classical ideas are explored so they can be taught in embodied, practical ways that make sense in modern life.
Alongside this, the accessible yoga component offers clear, thoughtful tools for supporting students of different abilities, backgrounds and needs, grounding philosophical understanding in inclusive, real world teaching.
Anatomy 2.0
Anatomy is explored through systems often overlooked in yoga training, including the lymphatic system, the vagus nerve and interoceptive nervous system, as well as pre and postnatal physiology.
Each area is taught through clear, functional anatomy and then applied directly to movement, sequencing and teaching, so these systems become understandable, relevant and genuinely useful in a yoga setting.
Breath and Nervous System Regulation
Breath, meditation and Yoga Nidra are taught from the inside out. You look closely at what these practices are made of, how they affect the nervous system and why they work in some contexts and not others.
Rather than memorising techniques, you learn how to build and adapt practices yourself. The focus is on making clear, informed choices, so what you offer is appropriate, responsive and grounded in understanding rather than habit.
HOW IT WORKS
Our Online 300hr Teacher Training involves various learning modalities to ensure you're set up for success over the long term.
ONLINE LIVE LECTURES
Join Celest Pereira & Hannah Barrett and expert guest teachers for live lectures and Q&A's covering a series of advanced teaching topics. All live lectures are recorded so don’t worry if you can’t make it live!
PROGRESS CHECKPOINTS
Multiple choice tests and progress checkpoints through the course to track your growth and check your knowledge.
ON-DEMAND VIDEO LIBRARY
Access all the lessons we cover in our live lectures, pre-recorded videos and workshops so you can review topics at your own pace and avoid information overload.
6 x MODULE ASSESSMENTS
To receive your 300hr yoga certification, you will need to complete a unique assessment for each of the six modules. These vary between case studies, written essays and teaching assessments.
WRITTEN MATERIALS & DOWNLOADS
Downloadable materials such as comprehensive 300hr Alba yoga teacher manuals for each module so you can integrate your learning and have a point of reference for your entire career as a yoga teacher.
PRIVATE COMMUNITY
Train alongside a supportive community with space to ask questions, exchange ideas and learn from others on the same path. After graduating, stay connected through our alumni monthly catch-ups.
You’re not starting again, you’re integrating.
For teachers who have completed the hours and feel called to support others with greater depth, clarity and care.
Many teachers reach the 300-hour stage wanting tools that feel practical, embodied and immediately usable in real teaching environments, especially when working with students who are struggling, in pain or feeling disconnected from their bodies.
This training is designed to support that next phase of teaching.
The Alba Yoga Academy 300-hour training focuses on giving you a deeper, more integrated toolkit so you can confidently support the people in your community. The integration of science, philosophy and practice is there to help you meet students where they are, adapt intelligently and teach with both skill and compassion.
This is about developing the understanding and practical tools that allow your teaching to genuinely help people feel safer, stronger and more supported in their bodies and lives.
SIGN UP NOWTHE CORE CURRICULUM
An anti-cookie cutter teacher training that hones in on both the science and the philosophy that will level-up your teaching.
BACKED BY SCIENCE
Build a strong anatomical foundation backed by science that allows you to feel confident teaching and safely make adjustments. As the science keeps coming in, the content will be updated - your lifelong access means your learning won't become out of date.
DESIGNED FOR REAL TEACHING
Move beyond theory and into education that translates directly to the mat. Every module is designed to support real world decision making so you can respond confidently to the bodies, needs and questions in front of you.
DEPTH WITHOUT OVERWHELM
This training offers depth, rigour and nuance without overload. Complex ideas are broken down clearly and revisited through practice, reflection and integration so learning lands in your body, not just your head.
BUILT FOR
LONGEVITY
Develop skills, understanding and discernment that support a sustainable teaching career. This training prioritises ethics, accessibility and nervous system awareness so your teaching can evolve with integrity over time.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU...
Many teachers reach the 300-hour stage having completed multiple trainings, workshops and courses. They know the poses, understand anatomy and have studied philosophy. Yet when they are working with pain, varied histories, injuries or students who simply do not respond to standard cues, it can still feel hard to know what to do next.
This training is designed for that reality.
It is about learning how to adapt a class when someone has had trauma or cannot load a joint, balance, breathe comfortably, or get out of pain. How to move beyond fixed sequences and teach in a way that is responsive and supportive for the real issues facing the people in the room.
This is not about collecting more information. It is about gaining usable tools. The integration of science, philosophy and practice is there to help you teach with more confidence and flexibility, especially when working with students who are struggling.

“I feel fully equipped in implementing anatomy into my teaching”
I used to try and learn something anatomy related by reading blogs, articles and books but often I couldn’t retain the information or understand it. I decided to do one of Celest’s trainings and immediately started to understand complex concepts. It helped me to feel fully equipped and this new learning easily became implemented in my teaching, which really helped my students understand their bodies and increase their knowledge and awareness.

“I truly believe this training is the best training in the world... I’m convinced there is nothing out there like it.”

PHILIPPE
“An incredible experience, rarely to be found in the current ‘scene of yoga education."
As a 20+ years yoga practitioner with ton of workshops under my belt and recent YTT200 graduate I was frankly not entirely sure what to expect from the course.
Looking back, it was an incredible experience, rarely to be found in the current ‘scene of yoga education.
SASHA
“This training was everything I was looking for in years.”
You leave this course with knowledge, confidence and a with a very strong foundation that will give you the power to expand yourself as a teacher and as a person, because now, I know better my weaknesses but as well I know better where my value is.
CAROLINA
"The design of this course and wealth of knowledge that came with it, has given me so much material to implement in my classes."
You will come out of it with a head full of ideas to test out with your own students to gain more hands-on experience. Cel, Hannah and the rest of the team were wonderfully welcoming and the enthusiasm they feel for this topic is infectious. Thank you so much for the cool new tools I was able to add to my teacher toolbox!’
ELEONOR
“The training didn’t just meet my expectations, it completely surpassed them in every possible way.”
Hannah and Cel are the most wonderful duo—each bringing their own magic, energy, and strengths, creating an experience that feels incredibly balanced, inspiring, and deeply thoughtful. Their synergy is something truly special.
The training was fun, uplifting, and creatively energising. I left feeling inspired, refreshed, and more connected to my practice than I had been in a long time. It honestly gave me so much more than I could have imagined.
I would wholeheartedly recommend joining one of their courses, they are absolutely fantastic.
