In addition to being the first Yoga Alliance registered hatha yoga teacher training program in Bexar County, we want to become the center for information about yoga studios, teachers and workshops offered in our area. Each year we will host internationally recognized yoga teachers. Our Scholarship Program will insure that financial need is not an impediment for those who aspire to become registered yoga teachers.

We have established a Scholarship Program and are accepting donations that will be used to help aspiring yoga teachers pay for their teacher training program.
