E-RYT 500

An E-RYT 500 is the fourth and the highest level of yoga teacher. This title is given to highly skilled and experienced yoga teachers who have completed 500 hours of advanced yoga training with at least four years of teaching experience (2,000 hours).

To be registered as an E-RYT 500, you’ll need to complete a:

• 500-hour teacher training from a RYS 500, OR a 200-hour training with a RYS 200 PLUS a 300-hour training with a RYS 300
• 2,000 teaching hours post-training, with at least 500 hours after your 300- or 500-hour teacher training
• Minimum of four years teaching since completing your initial RYS 200 or RYS 500 training

Teachers who are certified as E-RYT 500 instructors are seen as experts, qualified to lead 200-hour, 300-hour, and 500-hour teacher training programs. For this reason, they need to have extensive knowledge of yoga philosophy, anatomy, and advanced teaching methods with years of experience behind them. Yoga teachers who reach this level are also qualified to lead continuing education workshops for other RYTs.
