Vinyasa Flow 200 hour Yoga Teacher training
Have you ever thought about becoming a Yoga Teacher - to share something that’s transformed your own life with others?
The Yoga Solution’s 200 hour Vinyasa Flow Yoga Teacher Training Course is perfect for anyone who would like to explore a career in teaching yoga, or would like to deepen their knowledge and practice of yoga.
At The Yoga Solution, we blend the ancient wisdom of yoga with modern neuroscience to help you not only teach yoga with confidence, but to live it.
Our approach is built around three foundations:
Safety first. Learn to teach in a way that supports every body and nervous system. You’ll develop the skills to adapt practices for different energy levels, strengths and emotional states.
Science-informed teaching. Understand the neuroscience of stress and how yoga helps regulate the brain and body. Explore how movement, breath and attention influence the nervous system, and how to teach yoga from that knowledge.
Growth and embodiment. Deepen your own practice whilst cultivating self-awareness and confidence to share yoga in an authentic way with others, should you wish to.
the neuroscience of stress and yoga
Stress isn’t just a feeling — it’s a full-body physiological response. Chronic activation of the stress system can affect sleep, digestion, focus and mood.
Through this training, you’ll explore how yoga supports recovery and resilience by working directly with the nervous system:
• How the breath calms the amygdala (part of the fear detection network) and strengthens the prefrontal cortex (responsible for rational and calm thinking)
• How mindful movement and interoception (the awareness of internal sensations) help release stored tension in the mind and body
• How yoga calms both the stress responses; the neural response and the hormonal response
By the end of this training, you won’t just know how to teach yoga — you’ll understand why it works.

meet your teacher
Hi, I’m Holly!
I’ve been teaching on yoga teacher trainings since 2018, and in that time, I have learnt, experienced and studied how someone not only takes in the information required to teach a safe and beneficial yoga class, but also what it takes to give someone the self-belief that they can do it.
Spoiler alert: The self belief that you can teach yoga, comes from teaching yoga. That’s why, on our training, you teach from Day 2! Yes, really. It’s flipping nerve-wracking, but by the end of the training, you’ll thank me.
I’m more than happy to be a cheerleader, standing on the side lines shouting ‘you can do this!’, but you're knowing that you can comes from the doing.
Aside from that, I absolutely love to share evidence-based research as to why yoga is powerful helping us with so many things, including managing stress and anxiety, overcoming pain including chronic pain, improving the connection with our bodies and so, so much more.
In short, teaching yoga teacher trainings is a joy, I absolutely love every moment, I love to see the bonds forming between the group, I love seeing people break down barriers of ‘I can’t…’ that have been built up over their lives. I love it all, and I hope you will, too!
Making the decision to do this training was one of the scariest things I’ve ever done, but from the first day, Holly and the whole team made me feel at ease, welcome, and held by such a wonderful sense of community.
The content of the training explores all aspects of yoga in an in-depth yet accessible way. The topics are so well rounded, interesting and put forward in a way that makes them digestible and non-intimidating. Everything is constantly recapped and explained through various lenses, so the knowledge really sinks in.
Having just finished this training, I feel so excited about the future possibilities of teaching, and it’s largely because of the encouragement from Holly. Thank you so much!
