Welcome to Frog Lotus Yoga Teacher Trainings! Our Yoga Teacher Training Course is a professional, established, comprehensive, well-organized and highly effective program. It is also a transformational and life-affirming process. The founder and director of the Program, Vidya Jacqueline Heisel E-RYT 500 is a seasoned master teacher with over 30 years of joyful practice and teaching experience. Vidya enjoys teaching the programs internationally in exotic locations. She loves warm weather and beautiful nature and has carefully selected the retreat centers where she holds these retreats, to give trainees the optimal experience of a life-time!

What makes our program different and outstanding is the level of professional expertise and talented teaching ability brought to it by Vidya, Jennifer and Jennilee.

We also provide luxurious and very comfortable accommodations, gourmet vegetarian food and unbelievably beautiful settings. You will be totally taken care of and nurtured on every level.

The program is run as an intensive retreat. It is very beneficial to be able to take yourself out of your everyday environment, with all its inherent distractions and apply yourself fully to living and breathing yoga for the duration of the retreat, with like-minded travelers.

This program has been successfully running for six years, with 7 trainings offered per year. It has been registered at the 200 Hour level with Yoga Alliance since October 2003. Since its inception there have been over 1000 successful graduates of the program.

See what our graduates have to say about the program testimonials.

Vidya has endorsed Jennifer Yarro, who is the current owner and director of Frog Lotus Yoga, to also teach this program. Jennifer, who is an excellent teacher in her own right, will be leading this program two times a year at Frog Lotus Yoga Studio in North Adams, Massachusetts. The benefit of taking the trainings in a working studio is to be able to observe, participate in and assist in regularly scheduled classes, as well as being immersed in the training. Frog Lotus Yoga has a residency space for trainings in the old Mill which houses it.
