You love teaching yoga, but sometimes students come to class that you don’t know how to help. Students in larger bodies, older students, or those with physical limitations want to take your yoga classes, but you don’t know how to make the poses safe and accessible for them. Do you:
Yoga training programs often fail their students by not teaching them how to modify yoga for older students, those in larger bodies, and students with physical limitations.
By enhancing your skills, and seeing how blending strength training and pilates with your yoga practice can create a safe and accessible space for everyone. You’ll empower your students to embark on a journey towards a stronger, more fulfilling life.
What if you:
But what about the students who don’t look like the pictures in your yoga anatomy textbook?
Yoga For Everyone is an online yoga certification that teaches you how to adapt yoga asana for plus-size yogis, seniors, and those with physical limitations so that you can reach more students and confidently teach more classes.
We give you the tools to adapt any pose for any body, making you more confident and marketable as a teacher. And we coach you on how to leverage those tools to build a thriving, body-accepting yoga business.
When you know how to adapt yoga poses on-the-fly for the unique bodies of your students, you can offer a personalized yoga experience created just for them. And that makes all the difference.
I would struggle with certain poses and avoid practicing them as I thought I couldn't do them. Doing the Yoga for Everyone course has changed my practice in so many ways. Dianne has offered different variations and options that I can now practice the poses I would avoid. It's been a game changer for me and my practice. I would definitely recommend this course to every body.
I’m a yoga instructor, mom, entrepreneur and a social warrior for change. I’m passionate about making yoga accessible for people who have been underserved, underrepresented or underestimated by the yoga community.
After I had my second son, I wanted to go back to being active and decided to check out the oldest and most popular yoga studio in town for a lunchtime class. I remember looking forward to the class, and then walking into the studio where the person behind the counter looked me up and down before saying, “You know this is going to be hard right?”
It was this moment that I knew I had to make a change…
That’s why I’ve created this course, to give yoga teachers a new option: one with high-quality information about how to create an accessible, adaptive yoga class that serves all your students equally – regardless of body size, age, or abili
This Training bridges the gap between the bodies I saw in my yoga teacher training manuals and the actual people that show up to my classes. I learned to modify poses to make them accessible to plus-size and differently-abled bodies, but more importantly, how to cue and talk to students in an accepting and affirming way. I highly recommend the training to anyone who wants to teach authentic, individualized yoga. Worth every penny of my investment and I’m a better teacher for having completed.

You just need to complete the course within that year to get your certificate and for CEUs from Yoga Alliance, if desired.
