Whether your dream is to teach Yoga or deeply explore your passion, Tula's teacher training program provides a great opportunity to learn about yoga philosophy, meditation, alignment as well as advance & deepen your personal practice. This teacher training is for more than just the aspiring yoga teacher. It is for anyone looking for direction or simply searching for a deeper understanding of yoga. Students become part of a community of like-minded people looking to evolve their own practice and well being.
Since 2013, Tula’s yoga teacher training has remained one of the Tri-State area's leading programs. Tula has certified hundreds of students through our 200 Hour Yoga Alliance Program. Many of Tula’s graduates are sharing yoga, meditation and other healing modalities that are helping people all around the world. Through this training, you will learn how to teach and practice many different forms of yoga & meditation, as well as different methods for effective teaching. You will learn how to teach to a wide variety of individuals through the use of variations, how to connect with your students, and how to help your students and yourself gain a deeper sense of internal awareness and ease through the practice of yoga. You will gain confidence in your teaching and practice, and find your own unique voice as a yoga teacher. Rather than mold you into any specific style, we believe it is important to honor the individual in you and help you find your own style and path in your yoga journey.

Jen you are such an amazing teacher and so supportive. I feel so incredibly fortunate to have taken my first training with you. You have given me more confidence and so much encouragement. Tula will always be my Yoga home.” – Andi Rankin
"Tula Yoga definitely has the best training program in Monmouth County. The teachers live the principles of yoga, are knowledgeable and passionate about the subjects they teach and are caring about the students. The personal attention each teacher gave during and after the program is vast. It's impossible to do a Tula training and not grow personally and professionally in doing so. " - Marcie Bromberg
"As soon as I walked into Tula Yoga, I LOVED the vibe. Everyone is so welcoming and non-judgmental. I feel at home when I'm there. Our training took place as the COVID-19 pandemic/shutdown occurred. Our teachers were absolute rock stars who still took the time to train our group via zoom. They could have just postponed our training, but they trucked on just as we did. Tula is amazing!!! " - Caitlin Flanagan
“If you’re ready to delve deeper into your true self, then you are ready to embark on a teacher training experience. The Tula Yoga teacher training program is so much more than just learning how to teach yoga…although it certainly taught me that too, and well! This training is such a powerful exploration of yoga philosophy and a great opportunity to study yoga passionately with like-minded people with all different yoga backgrounds. Jennifer Cavalieri has such a beautiful studio with some awesome teachers. The instruction in anatomy, physiology, asanas, meditation, breath work and much more is truly amazing. I learned such invaluable lessons and made life-long friends.” - Aimee Latta Debow

They traveled the journey with us and and held our hands through it all. Thank you. ” - Leah Kleiner
“Jen, your teacher training program is out of this world. It has been such an honor to be a part of this program and to gain all of the confidence and knowledge that I have learned from you. I am so happy that several years ago you decided to quit your job and teach yoga. That is exactly what you were meant to do. The passion you have to teach others to teach is so inspiring and so lovely; you have a wonderful gift. You always give your all and that without your sincerity and genuine happiness and love for all that you do, we can never be where we are today.”- Stephanie Garafola
