FAQ
​
Can I attend the full TT Program even if I don’t want to teach?
​Yes. There’s no obligation to teach after graduation.
However, to join the full Teacher Training Program, you must agree to:
— Complete the 3-month TT Preparation Program —
— Participate in all on-site practice and teaching sessions —
— ​Teach one 75-minute trainee-taught assessment class —
​
If you’d like to experience the training environment without the teaching components, you can join a 7- or 10-day Practice Week. This option lets you practice alongside Scott, Jorina, and the group without any teaching, study, or assessment requirements. Practice Week participants may join all TT sessions except the Private Round Robin sessions and Dr. Jorji’s Clinics, which are reserved for full TT students. To access Dr. Jorji’s Asana and Prenatal Clinics, you must commit to the full Teacher Training.​
​
TT is not a retreat or a holiday.
If you’re seeking a more retreat-like experience, Practice Week is the perfect fit—come practice with us and enjoy the experience freely, without obligation but full of inspiration.​​​​​​
​
Is the Warrior Teacher Training Program Yoga Alliance registered?​​
Both the Warrior Training College of Asana-Based Strength Training and the Warrior Teacher Training Program are independent from Yoga Alliance. We serve as our own licensing and accreditation body, offering professional credentialing, recognition, and access to advanced education and community resources that support teaching excellence and career growth.
​
The Warrior Training College and the Warrior Teacher Training Program emphasize teacher education and development. Our graduates are trained to teach with confidence, intelligence, and care—meeting standards of safety, skill, and proficiency that extend well beyond basic registry requirements.
​
You’ll be assessed on true teaching outcomes—safety, corrections, and sequencing—not simply payment and attendance. If you already hold a Yoga Alliance registration, you may self-log your Warrior TT hours as Continuing Education in your YA account to receive YA recognition.​​​​​​​​​​​​
​
If I am injured, can I still join?
Usually, yes. The program is doctor-supervised and injury-aware. Please be sure to note any specific injuries in your application, and we will advise you appropriately.
​
When should I start?
The curriculum is comprehensive, with both practice and study components. You should begin as soon as applications open and no later than 3 months before the TT program begins. Exceptions may be possible but are not guaranteed.​​​​
