Through KRI’s scholarship fund, we are offering a number of application opportunities at 50% off the regular course price.

The intention is to help people around the world that need financial assistance to enroll in the program and continue their Teacher Training.

KRI is piloting a new scholarship program that allows recipients to take the course and “pay it forward” by giving back to their communities through a service project that incorporates the teachings and tools from course. 

Applicants will be asked to propose and briefly describe a project they will then develop within their community as a way of sharing the teachings.

Some examples of this are:

• Teach 10 classes on a topic related to the course material
• Lead a workshop in your workplace on the benefits of meditation
• Write an article on the course topics to share with your community
• Do an in-depth research paper to share with KRI’s community of trainers, teachers and students

These are some ideas, but the possibilities are endless and aligned with your own creative flow.

Application process:

• Fill out the application here, by August 14, 2022.
• Receive communication of scholarship grant, by August 17, 2022 and accept the application by registering in the course.
• Develop your project in the following 90 days (if the project requires more time, specify the end date)
• Complete written report to share with the Sangat how your project went

KRI is looking to share with the community your individual projects so you will be asked to document it and send it in.

Important facts:

• Scholarship amount is 50%, you will be required to pay the remaining 50% before the course begins. Here are the calculations:

In conjunction with your Level One KRI Certification, this 300-hour/2-year certification program qualifies you for the Yoga Alliance 500-hr E-RTY certificate. It consists of five different, independent and unique 62-hour modules. Once you complete all five modules you can request your Level Two certificate from KRI here.

If you do not yet have a Level 1 KRI certificate you can still take the course. You can apply one Level Two module before you complete the Level 1 course and still have it count towards your Level Two certificate. If you take more than one Level Two module before completing your Level 1 program, you will not receive a letter of completion, and hence they will not “count” towards your eventual Level Two certification.

To receive a completion letter of this course, you will need to complete the following requirements:

• Minimum of 85% attendance to the live online course and small group work.
• Complete make-up assignments to be discussed on an individual basis for the portions missed.
• Attend a minimum of 3 small group meetings in the 90 day period following the online course.
• Complete a 90 day meditation and send in a 1 page reflection.
• Have a passing grade on the exam that will be available halfway through the home study period.
