There is no required prereading. Those interested may choose to read Kripalu Yoga by Richard Faulds 

There will be reading assignments to support your learning within the program. The amount of time this reading takes will depend upon the assignment and the individual. There may also be time needed outside of the program session to prepare for your practice teaches. 

There is no final written exam. Throughout the training, you will be evaluated verbally and in writing on the material presented. These evaluations are designed to ascertain where you need additional study or support. Your certification is not contingent upon these evaluations. The practice-teach sessions are the determining factor for whether or not a student will graduate. Being able to successfully and safely deliver a complete Kripalu Yoga class to a group of your fellow students is a requirement for certification. 

Students receive a course manual. 

100% attendance is required for all on-campus and online sessions. Please keep in mind that full participation is required. For online sessions, this also includes your camera being on with you present. Excused absences with required make-up assignments are granted on a case-by-case basis due to unexpected illness, travel delays, or family emergencies. If you have questions about the Schools attendance policy, please contact kripaluschools@kripalu.org.    

Graduation takes place on the final day of your training and is only open to program participants.
