YOGA TEACHERS with HEART.....

Western Yoga College was founded by Scott Miller.After conducting Hatha Yoga Teacher Training programs for six years at a studio he created in Riverside, CA,, the Teacher Training Program is now available at studios throughout Southern California. The Primary Teachers 
of the TTProgram are Scott Miller, RYT and Lynn Kelley-Piper, MA, E-RYT500. Students areassured of experienced, professional teaching from two of California's most respected Yoga Teacher Trainers.

Western Yoga College is accredited with the Yoga Alliance Graduation from our program
translates directly to its 200 Hour Registered Yoga Alliance accreditation.

Nationally recognized is ....this program is distinguished by its broad yogic scope.
No other single school traces its roots back to all four of the main Hatha Yoga teachings. 
After running the first studio to offer daily classes taught by high level practitioners of
Ashtanga Yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Yin Yoga, and Kundalini Yoga, Scott is bringing that broad awareness more exclusively to this Teacher Training Program. Because Scott had studied directly with Ashtanga master Pattabhi Jois, Iyengar master Lisa Walford, Yin Yoga master Paul Grilley and Kundalini master Harijivan, Western Yoga College students are in turn exposed to the hathayogic philosophies and methodologies that have shaped the American yoga world over the last thirty years. Without compromising the integrity of any of the four individual styles, Scott positions our program to help a broad range of teacher trainees find their own way of instructing yoga.

Lynn Kelley-Piper, an Experienced Registered Yoga Alliance RYT500 teacher with over
40 years of teaching and training experience, studied directly from age 14 to 22 with Sri T. Krishnamacharya  - Father of Modern Yoga - followed by years of study with Iyengar, Indra Devi,Menaka Desicachar, Thich Naht Hanh, Robert Thurman, HH Dalai Lama and other  respected yogic and meditation masters.

Guided by Scott and Lynn,trainees can explore what it is that serves them best on a
yogic level. The start of that process is finding out what teacher-trainees love most
about yoga.

Then the love becomes what we teach. Students who will become yoga teachers AND
anyone serious about their practice can benefit from the course and most people who
have graduated consider this time to be the most transformational experience of their life.
