What the course fee covers

Lotus Love Yoga's price includes tuition and the course manual. Before you book anywhere, ask whether the fee also covers:

  • Books on the reading list.
  • Make-up sessions. Some schools need 100% attendance, so ask what happens if you miss a weekend.

Extra costs to budget for

  • Yoga Alliance registration. After you graduate you can register as an RYT 200. Yoga Alliance charges a $50 application fee and $65 a year, so $115 in the first year, paid in US dollars.
  • Insurance. Most venues ask for proof of public liability insurance before you teach. Prices depend on the provider and the level of cover.
  • Travel. On a weekend course you travel to every module, so a school close to home costs less over ten months.

Deposits and payment plans

The deposits we found ranged from £500 to £825. The rest is usually split into monthly payments. Where a school states it, the deposit is non-refundable.
