Who is this program for?

All ages, all perspectives, and all ability levels are welcome to join Yoga Hive's fully online 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, from anywhere in the world. Yes, that's YOU!

Join us if you are interested in the time-tested spiritual map that yoga outlined thousands of years ago. Or if you want to know more about the physical and mental healing that yoga can produce. Beginners and experts are welcome. You do not need to have a desire to teach yoga upon concluding this training... many people take teacher trainings just for the self study aspect, and diving deeper into your personal practice. 

All we ask of every trainee is to come as you are, with an open mind and a willing spirit!

​But don't take our word for it... here's what students are saying about our LIVE online experience...

Prior to taking Yoga Hive's Online YTT, I had a fear of not being good enough, of not doing enough yoga to qualify, and a fear of not being thin enough. I'm so glad I signed up. I thoroughly enjoyed the dedication from Mollie and Blaine. The online was not a barrier because the wealth of knowledge and broad topics extending beyond asana came across virtually.  I would definitely recommend the training. Believe in your instincts that you have been drawn to Yoga Hive for a reason!
— Jennifer T.

The Yoga Hive YTT has truly changed my life. I could not have imagined how much I would evolve during the training. I have learned to love myself again and to be grateful for my life. I also, now, respond from a still center, instead of reacting, when stressful situations occur in my life. I am excited to live each day and to continue to learn and grow and see where this journey takes me. I am eternally grateful for going through this experience.
— Melissa C.

I think my biggest hesitation at first with Yoga Hive's YTT was my age (I was 58 when I signed up). Also, I really didn't think I wanted to teach yoga, so what would be the point? But then life happened in a big way, and when I read the outline for the training, I saw that it was about much more than learning how to sequence (teach) a class, and I knew it was exactly what I needed at exactly the right time. I think the biggest change I've noticed in my life since completing the training (changes that began even before the training, from reading the required texts) has been learning about what makes me, me. Good and bad. And giving me tools to deal with the stressors of life. And of course, developing a daily devotional practice.
— Suzanne V.

What type of yoga do we learn?

Our program is inspired by the Kriya Yoga lineage of Babaji, vinyasa styles of yoga, and Energy Medicine Yoga. Trainees will learn how to sequence their own classes utilizing a creative combination of these elements, at their own pace.

Although no one is expected to teach yoga post-graduation, we do put an emphasis on practice teaching so that the material becomes ingrained in each trainee.  We will experience many different styles, transitions and postures, and experiment with sequencing a gentle yoga class (slow pace), a Honey Flow (medium pace), and a Hive Flow (faster pace), and whether you intend to teach upon the conclusion of the program or you're taking it for professional development, rest assured you will feel confident with sequencing and teaching many different ability levels! 

By the end of the training, you will have first-hand experience teaching a full yoga class, online using Zoom! This is the BEST way to culminate your training, and you'll also be learning a valuable skill to teach yoga online in the future, if you want to serve the world in this way! ​

Mollie answers some common questions...

What is the curriculum?

200 hours to experience the full scope of yoga, with a strong emphasis on energetic practices from the Tantric Tradition, self-realization, and meditation. Yoga Hive's teacher training will keep your eyes bright and your mind sharp as we teach you how to lead classes through vinyasa sequences. Beyond the scope of the required Yoga Alliance curriculum, we will delve into the following topics, offer each trainee a brilliant program manual, unlimited access to Yoga Hive Connect for the duration of the program, a membership for live streaming our in-studio classes during the program, and more!​

• Physical Anatomy, as it applies to teaching yoga
• Energetic Anatomy and the Chakra System, Koshas, and Prana Vayus
• 50+ pose breakdowns
• Cueing and sequencing, the Arc of Class
• Contraindications and modifications, including prop usage
• Gods and goddesses
• 20+ Himalayan Kriya and Kundalini practices (only taught in a few other YTT programs in the USA!)
• Energy Medicine Yoga
• Pranayama 
• Initiation into the Ancient Sattva Yoga Meditation Technique (from the Kriya Yoga lineage of Babaji)
• Opportunity to get a personal guru mantra
• History of Yoga
• Ayurveda, the Sister Science to Yoga
• Mala making
• Yoga Sutras and the Philosophy of Yoga
• The business of yoga
• ... and more!​

Sample Schedule

Part of this training is done with pre-recorded sessions — so you carve out time when it's convenient. However, there are three modules that are done LIVE on Zoom with Mollie/Shelle, and those weekends include Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings, with all day Saturday and Sunday.

Not sure if you could sit on Zoom that long? We balance our days with ample time to move, breathe, work in Zoom breakout rooms with partner(s), discuss as a big group, practice yoga and listen to lecture. Below are sample schedules from a short evening and a longer day.

Typical Wednesday, Thursday or Friday Evening:
5pm-6pm: Yoga Practice
6-6:30pm: Break with journaling 
6:30pm - 7:00pm: Asana, Kriya or Pranayama technique and anatomy breakdown from what we learned in class
7:00-8:15pm: Break
8:15pm-9pm: Discussion of textbook reading as a large group, or in small groups

Typical Saturday or Sunday:
8:30am-9am: Group Meditation (we teach you how and walk you through it!)
9am-9:30am: Journaling and quick break
9:30am-10:30am: Yoga Practice
10:30am-11:15am: Breakfast Break
11:15am-1:15pm: Morning lecture
1:15pm-2pm: Afternoon break (usually with some inquiry/homework)
2pm-4pm: Asana breakdown, practice teaching, discussion, etc.
4pm-4:30pm: Break
4:30pm-6:30pm: Revising some breakdown or sequencing, and ending with a low-key evening practice to allow everything to sink in.

Mollie Busby

E-RYT 500, RPYT, RCYT
​Kriya Yoga Master Teacher
Founder of Yoga Hive & Arctic Hive

@MollieOfTheNorth on Insta

Mollie Busby is a driven entrepreneur with the spirit of a summer camp counselor. She is a masterful yoga, breathwork and meditation teacher, and she and her husband, Sean, are off-grid home builders.

Mollie and Sean choose to live close to the land off-the-grid in pursuit of their life’s work. They currently live 63 miles north of Alaska’s Arctic Circle outside a tiny village called Wiseman, which is nestled in the Himalayas of the Arctic: The Brooks Range. There, they bring guests from all over the world to Arctic Hive, their backcountry yoga retreat center, providing yoga and off-grid education that is close to the land and rooted in sustainability.

The pair started a nonprofit, Riding On Insulin, in 2010 which Mollie ran as Executive Director, until Sean took over in 2018. It was then that Mollie shifted much of her focus to Yoga Hive Studios, a collective of yoga studios and online offerings located in Montana and Wisconsin. Yoga Hive is known for its inviting vibe, friendly instructors, and willingness to show anyone that yoga is for everybody and every body.

Regardless of the method, Mollie sees her purpose on this planet as cultivating community in small groups — whether in a yoga retreat setting or during the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings she runs online and in person. She enjoys spending time outdoors skiing and dogsledding in the winter, hiking in the summer, and playing with all their nine sled dogs all year round.

​Hailing originally from Wisconsin, Mollie brings to the mat her warm, midwestern hospitality mixed with a wide range of yoga training. Her teaching draws inspiration from philosophy from the ancient Tantric scriptures including gods and goddesses, Vedic Astrology (Jyotish), Ayurveda and a deep reverence for the Bhagavad Gita. She weaves a hefty dose of Himalayan kriya, breathwork, mantra, mudra and meditation from the lineage of Kriya Yoga. This unique mix gives her classes a grounded and magical vibe — students can feel her love for teaching to anyone willing to learn, layered with a profound gift of teaching for transformation.
