  • Yes. Upon successful completion of all training modules, assignments, and practical assessments, you will receive a wildlōtus 200-Hour Teacher Training Certificate.
    This course is Yoga Alliance–registered, qualifying you to teach yoga internationally and to continue into advanced 300-hour or mentorship-level studies under the wildlōtus Yoga or Little Mandarin FORM Academy.

  • This program is open to dedicated yoga practitioners of all levels who wish to deepen their understanding of yoga, whether or not you plan to teach.
    We recommend at least twelve months of consistent practice before enrolling. The training welcomes both aspiring teachers and committed students seeking to refine their practice, alignment, and knowledge of yoga philosophy.

  • Full attendance is essential to receive certification. Each day builds on the previous one, forming an integrated learning experience.
    Participants are expected to attend all training days, complete the take-home study and assignments, and engage fully in group activities.
    If unavoidable circumstances arise, limited make-up options may be available at the discretion of the lead faculty.

  • Yes. Upon graduation, you will be certified as a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher, recognised under Yoga Alliance standards.
    This qualification allows you to begin teaching group or private classes immediately — whether in studios, community spaces, or online.
    Many graduates also choose to continue deepening their skills through ongoing mentorships, assistant teaching opportunities, or advanced 300-hour training

  • Graduates who demonstrate dedication, professionalism, and strong teaching potential may be invited to join the Little Mandarin teaching community.
    While completion of the 200-hour program does not guarantee employment, we often support outstanding graduates through mentorships, class-assisting roles, and audition opportunities across our studios.
    This pathway offers a valuable chance to gain real-world teaching experience within a supportive, alignment-focused environment that reflects the wildlōtus and Little Mandarin standards of excellence.
