White label yoga teacher training is a complete 200-hour curriculum, written and tested by one school, that another studio or senior teacher licenses and delivers under their own name. You receive the manuals, class plans, assessments and policies; you bring the teaching, the students and the space. This guide explains what is inside a good one, how the licence works, what it means for Yoga Alliance registration, and how to tell a solid provider from a thin one.
We write this from both sides of the table. Yann and I have run teacher trainings at Loka Yoga School in Bali for years, and White Label YTT is our own curriculum, offered to other schools. So read it as a practitioner’s explanation with an obvious interest, and use the checklist at the end on us as much as on anyone else.
In short
In this guide
In most industries, white label means one company makes the product and another sells it under its own brand. In teacher training, the product is the curriculum: the written course that turns 200 hours into a structured sequence of classes, lectures, practice and assessment.
With a white label curriculum, your logo sits on the manuals, your school’s details sit in the headers and footers, and your students see your training. The provider stays in the background. What you are buying is the hardest, slowest part of starting a training: the documents.
A white label package is only as good as its contents, so ask for the list before anything else. Ours, as an example of what a complete one covers:
The four manuals are not an accident. They mirror the four core categories in Yoga Alliance’s RYS 200 standards, which makes the registration application far easier to map.
Once you send your logo and business details, we brand every document with your name, mark and colours, and the complete package is ready within 24 hours. The files arrive as downloadable, printable PDFs.
That speed is possible because the writing is already done. The months go into the content; putting your name on it is the quick part. Then the real work starts on your side: reading the whole programme, deciding your schedule and preparing your team.
This is the question worth slowing down on, with any provider. A curriculum is copyright material, so what you normally receive is a licence to use it, not the copyright itself. The detail that matters is what the licence allows and whether it can be taken away.
Under our terms, you receive a licence to run your own trainings with the materials for as long as you wish, for one payment, with no royalties, no renewals and no per-student fees, and it is a licence we cannot revoke. What you cannot do is resell the curriculum itself to other schools. Read any provider’s terms for those same points: revocation, royalties, renewals, per-student fees and resale.
A white label curriculum can be written to meet Yoga Alliance’s standards, but registration is something your school applies for, and Yoga Alliance makes the decision. It also depends on your lead trainer’s own credentials and experience, not only on the documents.
What a good provider does is shorten that process. We guide clients through the application and include ready-to-adapt text for the submission. Loka Yoga School has been a Registered Yoga School on Yoga Alliance since December 2017, so the curriculum has been through that review in practice, not just in theory. Be wary of anyone who promises registration as a guaranteed outcome. The full RYS 200 requirements are in their own guide.
It suits three kinds of people best. Studio owners who have a community asking for a training but no time to write one. Senior teachers who already teach parts of trainings for other schools and want their own. And schools that run one training already and want a second team or location to deliver the same quality.
It suits you less if writing your own curriculum is the point. Some teachers want every page to be theirs, and that is a fair choice; it simply takes far longer. Our guide to building your own training or licensing one walks through that decision honestly, and if you are starting from zero, how to create a 200-hour yoga teacher training shows the whole job.
Ask these before you pay anyone, including us:
You can read a free sample of our training materials to see the level of detail before you decide anything.
White Label YTT is a done-for-you 200-hour yoga teacher training curriculum, licensed to studios and teachers by Taryn Weggelaar and Yann Cadic, founders of Loka Yoga School in Bali.
If you are weighing up a training of your own, the most useful next step is to see real pages rather than promises. The sample shows how a class plan and a manual chapter are written, and you can judge the depth for yourself.
If you would rather talk it through, book a short discovery call. We will tell you plainly whether the package fits where your studio is now, and what else you will need.
It is a ready-made 200-hour yoga teacher training curriculum, written by an established school, that you license and deliver under your own school’s name and branding.
Yes, when the licence is clear and you teach it properly. Students are buying the quality of the training and the teachers in the room. A tested curriculum taught by a qualified lead trainer is a better offer than a rushed one written alone.
You can apply. Yoga Alliance assesses your school and your lead trainer, not the provider, and no provider can guarantee the result. A curriculum mapped to the RYS 200 categories makes the application much simpler.
Usually you receive a licence, not the copyright. Check whether the licence can be revoked, and whether it carries royalties, renewals or per-student fees. Ours is a one-off payment with none of those, and we cannot revoke it.
The branded materials are ready within 24 hours of receiving your logo and details. Most schools then take a few months to read the programme, prepare their teaching team, plan the schedule and enrol their first students.
Yes. You can add your own workshops, lineage and specialities on top of the core programme, as long as your final schedule still meets the hours you register with Yoga Alliance.
