200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training

July 1 - 17, 2027

The Shala - Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

EXPERIENCE: Practice like a Yogi - Surrounded by like-minded seekers, you’ll explore the ancient traditions of yoga as a way to live, lead, and teach. With curiosity as your only prerequisite, this is a modern approach to an ancient practice.

ACCOMMODATIONS:Live like a Yogi - Shala means “home” in Sanskrit, and that’s exactly how The Shala Bali feels. A blissfully low-key sanctuary tucked away in the heart of Ubud, one of the world’s most spiritual destinations. Here, yoga, nature, and holistic wellness come together among lush gardens and rice paddies, blending Balinese and Indian traditions. Created for healing, learning, and reconnection, it’s the perfect home base for our 16-day journey.

NOURISHMENT: Eat like a Yogi - Two vibrant, nourishing vegetarian meals a day, designed to energize and detoxify. (And yes, eggs for breakfast)

Accomodations

Key Focus

MEDITATION / ASANA / PRANAYAMA

Explore beyond the foundations of teaching and practicing yoga — from meditation and breathwork to the physical practice, while uncovering the deeper purpose behind it all.  

Format Highlights: Ashtanga Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin

PHILOSOPHY / DHARMA

Most of yoga is invisible.
Explore the unseen layers that shape how you move through the world. Experience the timeless tools, mindsets, and practices that remove obstacles and reveal your deeper purpose, fulfillment, and alignment.

SUBTLE BODY / ANATOMY

Your body is a map - both physical and energetic. Learn and experience how prana, your life force, moves through form, structure, and space. Understand alignment not just as posture, but as embodiment, the art of creating true inner and outer harmony.

Your Teacher

Kierstie Payge

1000+ Hr - ERYT

With nearly a decade of teaching experience and thousands of hours leading teacher trainings, I’ve had the honor of helping develop hundreds of teachers around the world.

Yoga has taken me across the globe — and onto millions of screens — but at its core, it’s still my daily practice, my anchor, and my art. It’s the thread that’s shaped how I live.

After years of studying with some of the most sought-after teachers and weaving in over 20 years as a student of yoga, philosophy, and creative expression, my approach is both grounded and rebellious — old soul wisdom with a new age spirit.

My sacred intention has always been to bring people back to themselves. This isn't just my work, this is at the core of my entire life, weaved into every relationship and I wouldn't have it any other way. 

xoxo, Kierstie

YTT Testimonials

“"Words can't really describe what this experience Kierstie curated for us during the past 10 weeks felt like in my heart and soul. She held such space for us in the most magical way and has such a gift that just pours out. The inner work was more than I imagined and the most important part of this training I feel. All the exponential growth: The self doubt that turned into more confidence at the end, and of course the bonds and connections made with classmates, I’m just so grateful I did this. Truly one of the best experiences I’ve had."

— Margie Camerino

"Being guided by Kierstie has been nothing short of transformative. She radiates a magnificent presence—pure energy wrapped in compassion, grace, and unwavering love. Every moment in her class feels like a journey inward, not only through asana but into deeper self-awareness and truth.

She teaches not from a pedestal but from the heart—meeting each student exactly where they are, with no judgment, only encouragement and presence. 

To be in her presence is to remember the power of kindness, the beauty of stillness, and the joy of simply being.

— Gabriella Castro

“I cannot imagine going through my yoga teacher training experience with anyone other than Kierstie. She has an immense passion for yoga that radiates into her teaching and really reignited my love for yoga as well. I felt so prepared after training to go out into the world and be of service to others through teaching yoga. I am so happy that I made the decision to do this training and am deeply grateful for my experience.”

— Kaitlin Dobson
