The Online Training does not come with a paper manual. If you would like to receive a copy to keep, they are available for purchase in our Online Store.

The Online SUP Yoga Teacher Training is modeled after our in-person training which is a 25 hour course. The length of time it takes each person to complete can vary depending on how much time you will need to devote to learning and practicing the required skills. For example, some may pickup the paddle skills quickly and not need as much time as others, who may need to spend more time on the water practicing. How quickly you can move through the course also depends on being a motivated self-learner. If you can devote the time to it and stay on track, you can complete the training very quickly! We have students who complete the training in as little as 1-2 weeks and others who take upwards of 4 months. It varies across the board but ultimately how long it takes is completely up to you!

One of the best things about our Online Training is that you can work it completely around your schedule! This training is a combination of text and prerecorded video content that you can move through at any time that is best for you and at a pace that feels good! No need to take time off of your regular schedule, you can log-in anytime! Once you are finished with the course materials, you will be able to receive a private Zoom session with your instructor to go over your assignments and have a chance to connect one-on-one. This date/time will be scheduled at a convenient time for both people.

The SUP Yoga Center Online Teacher Training is currently open for enrollment and you will be able to have immediate access upon registering!

You will have access to the Online Training for 6-months from the date of registration. We have found that this is way more than enough time for most of our students as it is only a 25 hour course. However, if you find that you would like access to the course for more time, you can extend in 2-month periods for $111. Please reach out to info@supyogacenter.com with "Course Extension Request" in the subject line to request an extension.

The Online Training has worked incredibly well for the several hundred instructors who have joined us and we are very happy with the incredible reviews and feedback we've received. You will work through the course materials on land, learning the materials and content. There are several short quizzes throughout the course that will ensure that you are understanding and retaining the important information. Once you feel ready, you will take your newly learned knowledge out on the water to practice! After taking the time to practice, you will setup your camera or phone to film the required assignments to submit for approval. Once all assignments have been submitted, you will receive a private Zoom session with your instructor to go over your assignments and ask clarifying questions about anything you may need help or guidance with.

The Online Training does not have a big scary final exam. It does have short quizzes throughout the course that will ensure that you are learning and retaining the important information. These quizzes can be taken over if you have not received a passing grade but they will need to be passed for final certification. The main "test" will be in your final assignments, to show that you can properly execute the required paddle and safety/rescue skills.

The SUP Yoga Center Teacher Training course is globally recognized and known in the SUP and SUP Yoga communities as the top and most comprehensible training in the industry. You can rest assured that you will receive the highest quality certification when choosing SUP Yoga Center. This includes a downloadable copy of your own SUP Yoga Center Instructor Certificate after the completion of the course. This training is also recognized by the Yoga Alliance and registered instructors can be eligible to receive 25 Continuing Education Hours after completing and passing our course. These hours will be "contact" for in-person and "non-contact" for online.

You do not! In fact, we find that it is even better when clients come to us without prior SUP experience that may have developed "bad habits". Our students who have had years of SUP experience always say the same thing: "I did not even realize there was a correct way to paddle!" If you have had experience, we can work to perfect your paddle skills. But prior paddleboarding experience is not required or necessary. By the end of this course, you will be a pro with your SUP skills!
