Letter From Jim


23 years have gone by since I founded Vajrasati Yoga Teacher Training (YAP 500PLUS) and I am proud to say that we are now one of the longest running TT’s in the country.

The longevity, in-depth understanding of the mechanics and the philosophy of yoga and the integrity of the school approach means that Vajrasati Yoga Teacher Training holds the highest accreditation possible with Yoga Alliance Professionals (YAP 500+).

The two year course allows time to fully integrate the teachings of yoga. We want you to understand yoga for you, not just memorise a bunch of ‘facts’. As the Buddha said; “come and see for yourself” (ehipaśyika).

The course covers: yoga; asana, pranayama, meditation and mantra; teaching techniques; anatomy and physiology; yoga philosophy from all influencing traditions Buddhist, Sāṅkhya, Vedānta, Haṭha, Tantra and more (for full understanding). You will also learn Sanskrit basics (history, pronunciation, I.A.S.T).

The training is facilitated by myself and my very knowledgeable partner Khadine Morcom (who has been running classes since 2004 and practicing since 1997 and is studying at SOAS for her masters degree in yoga and meditation traditions).

At the heart of Vajrasati Yoga is the empowerment of each and every teacher (and student) and shared learning so we can all grow together.
