OG Yoga Launches 2026 Trauma-Informed 200-Hour Weekend Training Feb through July

OG Yoga has launched a 2026 200-hour Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Training that opened Feb. 7 and follows a weekend format: an initial immersive weekend in February followed by continuing weekend modules through July. The program listing describes the curriculum as trauma-informed and references alignment with Yoga Alliance, positioning the course as a compact, practitioner-friendly route into trauma-aware teaching.

The listing provides the program title, start date, and high-level format, but the public excerpt did not include tuition figures, lead teacher names, or specific weekend dates beyond the Feb. 7 start. For community members mapping out training calendars, the weekend schedule model is notable: it suits working teachers and students who need to keep weekday commitments while completing a full 200-hour curriculum.

OG Yoga’s announcement joins a crowded field of 200-hour and trauma-informed offerings this year. Modo Yoga’s 200-hour Foundational Teacher Training runs Feb. 28 to Mar. 29, combining online weekend sessions with a weeklong in-person immersion at Dora Jungle Resort in Quintana Roo, Mexico. Modo pitches the blended format as a transformative experience: “Make your dream of becoming a yoga teacher a reality with our 200-hour Foundational Teacher Training, an unforgettable journey that blends the best of online learning with an in-person immersion in paradise.” The program promises that “By the end, you’ll walk away with your 200-hour certification, lifelong connections, and the confidence to lead safe, accessible, and inspiring classes anywhere in the world.”

School Yoga Institute is offering multiple 200-hour and trauma-informed options across locations and formats, with Portugal dates (Mar 30 - Apr 19 and Jun 25 - Jul 15) and several Costa Rica blocks at AVES Resort, including Feb 1 - 21 and Jun 5 - 25. The institute frames its work in healing language: “Together, we honor the ancient roots of yoga while responding to the needs of contemporary practitioners, especially those seeking healing, nervous system resilience, and sacred embodiment,” reflecting the sector’s stronger focus on somatic and nervous system-aware training.

Not every trauma offering is a full 200 hours. Yoga Medicine’s Mindful, Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Training is a 20-hour online immersion presented by Dr. Ann Bortz that “provides yoga teachers with a solid understanding of what trauma is, how it affects us, and how to approach trauma within a yoga setting.” The Prison Yoga Project runs a 19-week, 200-hour program that explicitly merges yoga with social justice and leadership and centers trauma-informed practice: “Our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training merges the practices of yoga with principles of social justice and leadership.” Alumni testimonials underline the depth of that model: “If you want to truly learn and know yourself while healing from trauma ... this is the way to go.”, A.T. YTT Participant.

Practical value for readers is clear: weekend-format 200-hour trainings give working practitioners a realistic path to certification, while short immersions and long-form social justice programs offer different depths of trauma work. If you’re planning a 2026 training, compare schedules, faculty, tuition, and whether programs meet Yoga Alliance or other credentialing needs. For those eyeing nearby options, Luna Yoga is still promoting its 200-hour 2026–2027 program with a registration incentive: “Register by March 1, 2026, Promo code: EBLYTT2026 Receive $500 off tuition.”

What comes next is a busy spring for teacher training. Check program pages for full schedules, faculty bios, and enrollment details, then pick the format that fits your mat-life, your priorities for trauma-informed practice, and your timeline for certification.
