What our graduates say
"An extraordinary teacher who bridges science and spirit."
"Laura has an unbelievable ability to explain complex movement science and the neurology without losing the soul of yoga. I completed this training feeling like a completely different teacher - more confident, grounded, and clear about my path."
— Sarah M.
"I have my dream job thanks to Laura and the 300hr."
"I didn’t want to teach general studio flow classes. I wanted to do meaningful, therapeutic work. Through the trauma and somatic modules, I gained the clinical grounding and confidence to work directly with people in addiction recovery and within the prison system. Laura’s training gave me both the depth of skill and the authority to build a career I love. It is my dream work."
— Frankie S.
"Every class and workshop I run is now full."
"Before working with Laura, I was struggling with unpredictable class numbers and income. The business and marketing mentorship was the exact missing piece of my puzzle. She showed me how to rewrite my website, structure what I offer so it fills easier, and now my classes and workshops are consistently sold out."
— Laura M.
“Laura is such a joy to study and practice with! She brings incredible depth of knowledge, from ancient wisdom to evidence-based science, always shared with humour and humility. Thanks for all you continue to teach me.”
Cecile
“Taking the leap to do this course for myself was one of best decisions I've ever made and the learning continues long after the course ends - the best money you'll ever spend.”
Sian
“I would recommend this to anyone looking to level up their teaching and feel a part of a supportive community of people looking to grow along the same lines.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What qualification will I get?
The 300-hour training, in addition to your 200-hour training, certifies you at 500-hour level. On completion you receive an Advanced Yoga Teacher Training certificate listing the core modules studied. Yoga Alliance US recognises this for those in the US, or who study with 45 hours of simultaneous study; registration with Yoga Alliance Professionals is available for all live content.
Who is this course for?
Whether you completed your 200hr with Laura or another provider, this is your next step. It's ideal if you want to specialise, improve your earning potential, revitalise your practice, or understand the science behind the body and neurology.
How do I pay for the course?
A £1,000 deposit secures your place. After that you can pay the course in full, or spread the remainder over a 12 or 18 month payment plan (plan fee of £60, 1.5% of the course fee, by direct debit), or pay off your outstanding balance at any time. Payment schedules can only be changed with written agreement; a late payment fee of £30 applies to overdue amounts without agreement. We do not offer refunds or cancellations on any payment plan.
Am I ready for this?
This course does not require any specific abilities in terms of asana. It provides targeted practices, ongoing mentoring, and the support of a vibrant community and expert guidance.
How is the training delivered?
Study fully online with high-quality pre-recorded content, or blend with live training on Zoom or in Laura's central Bristol studio. All live sessions are recorded. Each module includes a comprehensive manual, plus workbooks for the business and marketing module.
How much study time do I need?
Beyond the training days for each module and course reading, aim to allocate roughly one day a week to studying, using short pre-recorded videos with an easy Q&A option for any questions.
Can I complete this course 100% online?
Yes! You can study fully online, or choose our Blended Option — joining us in person for selected studio intensives, with full online portal access either way.
How does the business mentorship help me earn my tuition back?
We teach you how to shift away from low-paid gym work and unreliable drop-in classes. Instead, we support you to create a complete strategy for your work that generates sustainable, consistent income.
Consider this over 6 weeks:
- Two 6-week courses with 14 students paying £90 generates £2,520
- One workshop for £45 for 16 students generates £720
- Two 1-2-1 clients weekly at £75 each generates £900
Total: £4,140 — the course pays for itself with 3 classes a week and one workshop.
It’s entirely possible once you have the teaching skill and confidence, the business structure, and the marketing knowledge. That’s what we’re here for.
What if I can’t attend a live module date?
Life happens! All live Zoom sessions are recorded and emailed after the intensive.
What if I’ve been out of study for a long time?
Don’t worry — we have teachers who are newer to the field, and others who haven’t taught for a long time, as well as those who’ve been teaching for decades. We’re all here to learn and support each other. You can check in any time, so you never feel overwhelmed or left behind.
Ready to Become the Go-To Specialist in Your Community?
Don’t spend another year exhausted on the studio circuit, undercharging for your craft, and worrying about empty rooms. Step into your power as a teacher with The Independent Teacher’s Path™ and build a career that fulfills you physically, creatively, and financially.
