Lila Yoga

I hope you’re considering our hybrid Lila Yoga Teacher Training 200 & 300 hour that starts in January

When I meditate on sharing and teaching Lila YTT 200 & 300 at this time in my life, I feel the honor that surrounds it, the blessing of the special spirit of all of us who will be part of the group…and I feel it as tremendously meaningful🙏🏽and uniquely ✨significant in this time in history—the art of human living—vulnerable and strong with powerful calm and expansive unconditional and non-circumstantial LOVE

DM us LILA YTT if you’re interested in joining or would like to schedule a discovery call

Erica Kaufman, the founder of Lila Yoga, has been offering teacher trainings for over 23 years and has graduated hundreds of competent and compassionate teachers

Today, Lila Yoga graduates are sharing these teachings in communities across the country and around the world, carrying forward a tradition rooted in wisdom, authenticity, and service

Starting in January 2027, Erica will be leading both a 200LYTT and 300LYTT

“Studying & practicing the great science of yoga enables us to understand ourselves & others—it is a holistic way of living, relating & evolving within a healthy balanced life.”
– Erica Kaufman

We have heard your requests!!! So in addition to a Lila 300YTT, we will also offer Lila 200YTT in 2027!

Lila 200YTT is for you if you are interested in feeling the prana energy within your yoga and learn to share it with your students!

Instead of practicing and teaching yoga postures as a shape to align with, allow each asana to open unique connections to life energies— subtle currents enlivening healthy and more sustainable balance in life.

Lila 200YTT exceeds all the Yoga Alliance’s guidelines providing a healthy base to enrich your yoga knowledge and experience.

You will learn from the classical text of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and the Bahagavad Gita and examine its relevance and application in life; practice and teach Lila Sun Salutations, basic vinyasas; pranayama, and meditation.

“Observations within myself and Nonny during difficult times:

Knowing the strength of our full power love and being relatively calm in tough situation is a super power.

Clarity rides on the calm.

Intensity is not panic.

We can be calm within intensity”
