Vajra Yoga 300hr School

Our 300 Hour Vajra Yoga School course will be held November 14th, 2025 to April 5, 2026.

This is a unique Yoga Alliance Certification program sponsored by Menla and Tibet House US that incorporates the classical yogic inner sciences from India and Tibet to give people the tools to have a better life and share them with others.

We focus on the intersection between Hatha Yoga & the yogas from Vajrayana Buddhism and explore the philosophical and experiential interface between both traditions.  If you are looking for a Yoga Teacher Training course that is non-sectarian and brings in yoga and the meditative sciences from both traditions, this is the course.

Our program is designed to support self-discovery and growth, lasting joy and physical health and happiness. We focus on alignment-based Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Tibetan Healing Yoga, breathing practices, meditation and philosophy from the Buddha and the yogis & great Mahasiddhas from India and Tibet.  The journey is deeply educational and spiritually transformational, while giving you the practical skills to support other students on their path.

Whether your goal is to teach yoga or deepen your practice, you will find the tools that light your journey.

We recommend students take this course that have been studying yoga for a few years or have already taken at 200 hr course. This program is 300 hours of teachings divided into 2 terms.  We begin our course November 14th, 2025 with an in-person immersion at Menla Mountain Retreat Center in New York, which can also be live-streamed for those that can’t make it to Menla.  However, we strongly recommend you attend in person.

We will continue meeting weekly to study together over zoom with live-stream asana practices, Q&As & philosophy sessions with the teachers.  We close our school year with a final in-person retreat at Menla.

In person Retreats at Menla: November 14-20, 2025 & March 30-April 5th, 2026

Ongoing weekly livestream zoom classes held: Saturdays 11-1pm Eastern w/ Michele Loew for yoga practice, and some Fridays every month for teachings and discussions with Tenzin Bob Thurman.  There are also on-demand recorded videos released each week to study with Tenzin Bob for self paced learning. Classes will be recorded and placed on our learning platform for your viewing if you can’t attend a session live.
