Once registered in this program Michele Theoret will work with each registrant on a timeline, schedule, and curriculum that best reflects goals, lifestyles, and talents. The flexible schedule allows each person to work at their own pace while being offered profesional mentorship and support. Michele Theoret brings over 20 years of yoga teaching experience, profesional training in personal training and group fitness instruction, a Bachelor of Science degree in exercise science, Masters of Science in Natural Health Sciences, and Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology. As a psychologist and yoga teacher, Michele prides herself in meeting each student where they are at and supporting them through both education and practical experience. Michele has studied in many yoga and mediation traditions and integrates these teachings with her formal education in exercise science and psychology.

The required core modules (250HRS) and elective modules (50HRS) may be taken over the course of one calendar year, or you may wish to spread the modules over several years of study in order to better fit your goals and lifestyle. Once registered Michele Theoret will help you decide on a curriculum and schedule that best suits your needs.

The core modules will include important foundational information focused on anatomy, biomechanics, alignment, psychology, philosophy, energetics, and movement practices from various disciplines; their role in grounding people in their bodies while awakening potential and increasing vitality. Teachers will gain an even deeper understanding of the fusion of anatomy & physiology and the eastern energetics and how each lens offers a different perspective when viewing individual bodies and experiences.

In addition to the core modules students will select 100HRS of electives (transfer credits may be granted for those whom have studied in other schools) in order to better refine their offerings and vision as a teacher. We have partnered with world-class specialty yoga schools to bring you the best programs for the modern day yoga teacher.

Once you have completed 300HRS through Empowered you will be granted a 300HR advanced certificate from Empowered Yoga and eligible to register as a 500HR instructor with the Yoga Alliance.
