Firefly Yoga & Movement Studio · Morgan’s Point Resort, TX
Whether you want to go deeper in your own practice or step into a life where yoga is your livelihood — the Firefly 200-Hour Teacher Training opens both doors. Experience the fullness of what yoga has to offer, and walk away with the credential to share it.
Led by Kelly Partyke
As co-founder of Firefly Yoga & Movement Studio, Kelly has spent years creating transformative spaces for personal growth and community connection. Her journey into yoga was never just about the physical — it was about mental clarity, spiritual grounding, and emotional resilience.
Kelly’s heart for this training goes beyond producing certified teachers. She wants every person who walks through those doors to experience the fullness of what yoga has to offer — the alignment, the breath, the philosophy, the community — in a way that a regular weekly class simply can’t provide.
Whether you finish ready to teach or simply ready to live your practice more deeply, that’s exactly what this training was built for.
The goal of the training is not only to teach the technical aspects of asana but to nurture compassionate, thoughtful leaders who can carry the light of yoga into their communities.— Kelly, Lead Trainer & Co-Founder
What You’ll Learn
5,000 years of tradition distilled into practical wisdom. The eight-limbed path, the Yoga Sutras, and how philosophy informs everything you teach.
Understand how the body moves, so you can guide students safely. Includes the Yoganatomy online course — a deep dive into body mechanics for yoga teachers.
Posture mechanics, modifications, contraindications, and hands-on cueing — so every student in your class feels seen and supported.
The anchor between body and mind. You’ll learn to guide students through breathwork that calms, energizes, and creates lasting presence.
Meditation techniques, breathwork practices, and the deeper layers of yoga that go beyond the physical — the part of the practice that tends to change everything.
Sequencing, class design, voice and language, working with diverse students, and building the professional practice you’ve been envisioning.
Why In-Person
Online trainings have their place. But yoga — real yoga — is a physical, relational, embodied practice. There are things you simply cannot get from a video.
Understanding alignment intellectually is one thing. Feeling a correction in your body — a hand on your hip, a cue that finally clicks — is something else entirely. That’s what changes your practice permanently.
Watching someone practice beside you, being watched yourself, practicing teaching on a real human body — none of that translates through a screen. You learn by doing, and you do it here.
Ten weekends in a room together creates something an online cohort rarely does — real relationships. The people you train with become your accountability partners, your cheerleaders, and often your lifelong friends.
When you show up in person, you’re all in. No inbox, no laundry, no pausing the video. The weekend format creates a container for real focus and real transformation that’s almost impossible to replicate at home.
Every instructor in this training is a Firefly teacher — someone who lives the same mission, teaches with the same values, and cares about your growth the way we all do. You’re not getting a rotating cast of strangers. You’re getting a team that knows this studio, knows this community, and is genuinely invested in you walking across that graduation stage.

Yoga Alliance Registered Program
This 200-hour program meets the standards required for Yoga Alliance registration. Upon graduation, you’ll be eligible to register as an RYT-200 — the internationally recognized credential that opens doors to teaching at studios, gyms, retreat centers, and beyond.
Where This Takes You
Some graduates use it to go deeper on their own mat. Others turn it into something more. Here’s what becomes possible when you hold that credential.
Your RYT-200 is the standard credential studios look for when hiring. Walk out of graduation ready to sub, build a class roster, and grow a teaching career on your own terms.
Gyms and fitness centers hire certified yoga instructors. Add a meaningful revenue stream doing something you love alongside what you’re already doing.
Retreats are one of the most fulfilling — and financially rewarding — ways to share yoga. Your certification is the foundation that makes it possible.
Schools, shelters, recovery programs, churches — the need for accessible yoga is everywhere. Your training gives you the tools and confidence to show up and give back.
Companies are investing in employee wellness more than ever. Certified instructors who can bring yoga into the workplace are in demand — and the pay reflects it.
Not everyone who completes a 200-hour training teaches — and that’s completely valid. Many graduates simply become better, more intentional practitioners for life.
Is This for You?
This training is for you if…
Not everyone who walks through this training walks out wanting to teach — and that’s completely okay. Some of my favorite students came in just wanting to understand their practice better and left with something they couldn’t have anticipated.
But if teaching is in your heart — even as a flicker of an idea — this training will fan that flame. Whether you want to build a career, lead retreats, volunteer on weekends, or simply feel like you truly know what you’re doing on your mat, there is a place for you here.
This training will show you what yoga is actually made of. You’ll feel the difference on your mat and off it.
— you still light up, you know.
Presale pricing ends May 15. Your $300 deposit holds your spot in the 2026 cohort. Spots are limited — we keep this cohort intentionally small.
