Teach people, not poses!

Hong Kong’s only yoga teacher training built on Inclusion, Accessibility and Empowerment.

I’m so glad you’ve landed here. I’ve designed my workshops and certification programmes to show you how to truly see the person in front of you, and confidently lead a class to suit any ability, background and life-experience. Our programmes are designed to work with a spectrum of ability: the student with injuries; the one carrying anxiety; or the body that doesn't look like a magazine cover.

Instead of training you to teach yoga to the same tiny pool of flexible students, relying on a certain look to get noticed, we show you how to build a community of dedicated students — ones that begin their journey with you, and stay with you for years.

I’m proud to share that I have personally brought this system to thousands of people in Hong Kong and abroad, especially through the work of YAMA Foundation.

“I wish I did my 200-hour teacher training with Hersha. I didn’t realise how my teaching style unintentionally created barriers for many students. I am now more aware of the diversity of student needs in any class and have skills to be more accessible and inclusive.”

— Shivani Viyom (Adaptive Yoga Training Participant)
