Frequently Asked Questions
If you have a question about our training that is not listed below, please contact us.
How can I become a Prison Yoga Project facilitator?
If you are interested in becoming a PYP facilitator, please check out our Becoming a Facilitator for more information.
Do I have to be a yoga teacher/therapist or meditation teacher to attend your Foundational Training?
The training is open to anyone interested, regardless of experience or training. To work with us as a facilitator, we require a 200-hour yoga teacher training certification or extensive experience teaching yoga and/or mindfulness. Due to the sensitive nature of our work, we screen, so not everyone who attends the training is guaranteed an opportunity to work with Prison Yoga Project as a facilitator; however, there are many other ways to engage.
