Already have your RYS 200? The 300-Hour is built directly on top of it — deeper, more practical, with substantially more time spent actually teaching. Here's exactly what you get on top of the 200-Hour curriculum.
- Substantially more teaching practice. The 300 includes 2x half-class practica plus multiple full classes (90 min and 75 min) — versus the 200's single half-class and 60-min full class. Far more time to repeat, refine, and own the dialogue.
- More 1:1 live mentoring sessions. Significantly expanded online mentoring — real personalised feedback from our teaching team, not a chatbot.
- More required philosophy lectures. Deeper study with Mark — the Yoga Sutras, sacred texts, and the inner work that distinguishes a teacher from a fitness instructor.
- Required reading assignments. A curated reading list with assessments — the foundational texts every senior teacher should know cold.
- Expanded philosophy & advanced content, released as it becomes available — lifetime access means you keep growing as the curriculum grows.
- Completes your Yoga Alliance RYT 500. Stack the 200 + 300 hours and you graduate at the senior teaching credential recognised in studios worldwide.
The 300-Hour Curriculum
Five advanced modules built on top of your 200-Hour foundation. More teaching, more philosophy, more 1:1 work, more reading. Module 1 includes preview lessons from our posture mechanics library — tap to watch.

The Lineage You're Continuing
Sixteen years ago, two teachers refused to accept that yoga could be owned. Mark Drost and Zefea Samson spent a decade alongside Bikram Choudhury — and then won the landmark legal case that confirmed the 26+2 sequence belongs to everyone. Evolation Yoga was born from that decision: a global collective of teachers committed to making this lineage truly accessible.
By the time you graduate, you will be able to:
- Deliver full 90 and 75 minute hot yoga classes with seasoned ease
- Refine your cueing and presence to the level of a senior teacher
- Offer hands-on adjustments and assists safely in a hot environment
- Teach with depth from the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and the 8 limbs
- Lead advanced meditation and pranayama practices with confidence
- Walk into any studio worldwide as a Yoga Alliance certified RYT 500
What You'll Master at the 300-Hour
This is where the dialogue becomes yours. Where philosophy stops being recited and starts being lived. Where you stop teaching from a script and start teaching from presence. The 300-Hour is the senior tier of the Evolation lineage.
Skills you'll build at the advanced level:
- Refined 26+2 dialogue — cadence, presence, the voice of an experienced teacher
- Advanced posture mechanics — subtler details, deeper adjustments, advanced cueing
- Multiple full-class teaching practica — 90 and 75 minute classes, with repetitions to refine
- The Yoga Sutras & Bhagavad Gita — the philosophical foundations every senior teacher knows
- Advanced meditation & pranayama — the inner work that anchors a teaching life
- Hands-on adjustments — safe, intelligent assists in a 105°F (40°C) room
- Special populations — pregnancy, injuries, seniors, complete beginners
Included in Your Tuition
Your Founders, Your Teachers
Zefea rediscovered yoga through Bikram Yoga in Amsterdam and graduated from Bikram's Teacher Training in 2005. She represented the Netherlands as Dutch gold medalist three times in the International Yoga Championships, finishing in the world's top 10 each time. In the 300-Hour, Zefea leads the advanced posture mechanics curriculum and the teaching practicum — the deeper biomechanical work and the live 1:1 mentoring that refines you from competent graduate into seasoned teacher.
Mark has studied yoga philosophy and meditation for over 40 years. With 30 years of Bikram Yoga practice and 25 years of teaching, he has taught in 100+ studios, founded 15, and mentored thousands of teachers. In the 300-Hour, Mark expands the philosophy curriculum deeply — the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the Bhagavad Gita, advanced meditation, and the lived application of the 8 limbs. These are the lectures and the reading list that take you from teacher to true student of the tradition.
