Application & Interview Process
Please call 503-231-0383, ext. 15, or email us at info@mcyoga.com to set up an appointment with Ruth Knight, director of the teacher training. She’ll give you a tour of The Movement Center and talk with you about our program. Together you’ll decide if it’s a good fit.
When you come for your interview, please be prepared to answer these questions:
1. Why do you want to teach yoga?
2. What attracts you to our program?
3. What is your yoga and meditation practice like?
The next step is to attend a yoga class so we can assess your asana practice. If your practice looks fine, the final step is to submit your application with deposit, and you’re in!
