Step Into Your Path. Awaken the Teacher Within.
Our next 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training begins April 2025, led by Brynn Dardanes, E-RYT 200, alongside our all-women support faculty — Megan Reece (500HR RYT + Yoga Therapist), Ursula Pflucker (500HR RYT), and Julie Vitek (200HR RYT).
Together, this dynamic team will guide you through an immersive journey designed to awaken your inner teacher, deepen your self-understanding, and expand your connection to the ancient wisdom of yoga.
Whether your calling is to share yoga as a teacher or to dive deeper into your own practice, this training is an invitation to transformation — to step outside of your comfort zone, to heal, and to grow. In a world that is hungry for connection, authenticity, and heart-led leadership, becoming a yoga teacher is truly a sacred path.
At Urban Yoga, we believe that yoga is more than movement — it’s a remembering. A coming home. A way to live in alignment with your purpose, your community, and your highest self.

Our 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is fully aligned with Yoga Alliance Core Curriculum Standards, offering a strong foundation in the art, science, and philosophy of yoga. Through in-depth study, embodied practice, and supportive mentorship, you’ll learn not just to teach yoga — but to live it.

Meet Brynn:
Brynn first discovered yoga during her freshman year of college, at a time of personal upheaval. What began as a refuge soon evolved into a way of understanding and interpreting life. She believes that everyone practices yoga in some form, as yoga is ultimately the awakening—the conscious effort to become a better person. For many practitioners, this journey begins with restoring balance and health to the mind and body. As this harmony deepens, it naturally becomes easier to embody genuine kindness and to share one’s unique gifts with the world.
In 2010, Brynn founded Elemental Yoga, creating a welcoming space for students to explore the transformative practices of yoga in body, mind, and spirit. Since 2012, she has led Yoga Alliance–registered 200-hour and 300-hour teacher trainings, guiding hundreds of teachers on their own paths of growth and discovery.
