200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Program
Four-Month Program ~ Spring or Fall 2022
In this 200-hour Yoga Teacher Certification Course, you’ll deepen your knowledge of the practice and yourself while at the same time becoming prepared to share the gifts of Yoga and meditation with others!
Enjoy the sweet serenity of spending quality time at Wilder-Nest Retreats, a private ranch nestled in the canyon between Loveland and Fort Collins. We’ll have some classes outdoors when the weather permits. And, for the winter classes, we’ll enjoy the comfort of the wood-burning stove and hot tea in the yoga room.
Our training format will challenge and inspire you because the holistic style is unique, comprehensive, yet traditional in nature. And, the teachers are highly experienced and accredited. Together we’ll immerse into a routine of yoga and meditation. You’ll learn to cleanse and strengthen yourself from the inside out while revealing your inner yoga teacher.
More than a Yoga Teacher Training, this is also a self-healing and character building retreat. Participants are encouraged to weave the concepts learned into daily life in order to fully experience the holistic health benefits of Yoga. In this way we learn to share the practices in an authentic way.

200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Location
Wilder-Nest Retreats, 9144 Glade Rd. in Loveland, CO
Wilder-Nest Retreats is a private 6-acre ranch in Northwest Loveland. It’s a special place that serves as a sanctuary away from the demands and stimulation of daily life. Above all, it’s as a home for learning, personal development, and a thriving community where you’re invited to pioneer a new relationship with yourself and the natural world. Housing is available if you would like to stay on-site for any part of your training.
My overall experience was life-changing. I felt immersed in a culture of learning, acceptance, growth, and light. A creative space ensued that made for a truly special environment, and if I could I would do it all over again ten times over.
