Yes. Yogalates has built recognition with Insurance companies to become insured with them without being a member of an Association. You can also gain insurance by being a Certified Alliance and Yoga Australia Member.

3. Is a face to face practical required?

To be Certified, you need to complete the online study assessments, attend and complete one of the face to face practicums.

The practicum will give you the 'hands on' approach and experience to your teaching skills and will bring everything you have learned in the online study together which makes it an important component in your training and becoming a good teacher.

Please see our Dates & Prices pages for location, dates, prices and length of practicum for more detailed information.

4. What is involved prior to the face to face practicum?

You need to complete the online study side of the course which involves readings & emailing in assessments to be marked by our Course Facilitators. Once 70% of the assessments are complete you are competent enough to join a practicum. Once you have completed the outstanding assignments (remaining 30%) you will be fully certified.
