Our curriculum is a fusion of ancient wisdom and contemporary relevance. Tom and Gemma have meticulously designed a course that goes beyond the basics, providing you with a comprehensive understanding of yoga’s timeless principles and their practical application in today’s fast-paced world.

Philosophy in Action

“We believe the best students make the best teachers.” This philosophy is at the core of our training. More than just acquiring teaching skills, Empowered Yoga School offers a profound opportunity for personal growth. By delving into the ancient practice, you not only develop your unique teaching voice but also embark on a transformative journey as a dedicated student of yoga.

DIFFERENT & NEW Perspectives

For Gemma & Tom, teacher training was a life-changing experience, and through Empowered Yoga School, their mission is to guide you on a similarly transformative journey. The curriculum is not just a series of lessons; it’s an invitation to explore, grow, and emerge not only as a skilled yoga teacher but as an empowered individual.

POSITIVE IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE

A yoga teacher training is a personal transformative journey and something which will positively impact your life whether you want to teach yoga or not. It enables you to deepen your yoga practice but also discover and uncover yourself on the way.

what you can expect from your yoga teacher training

Your lead teachers at Empowered Yoga School, Tom Wilson-Leonard and Gemma Soul, both Heads of Yoga at Psycle London, have come together to take yoga to a whole new level. 

Passionate about their craft, dedicated to sharing their knowledge, committed to delivering it authentically and purposefully, they have designed a curriculum where you will learn an ancient practice for application in a modern world.  

“We believe the best yoga students make the best teachers. 

Not only will this training provide you with the skill set to develop your own unique and authentic voice as a teacher, but an opportunity to deepen your own individual journey and understanding of yoga as a student.  Teacher training for us was a life changing experience and through Empowered Yoga School we hope to facilitate the same transformative journey for you”

  • Thank you Gemma for guiding me on this profound path of self-discovery!

    I’m deeply grateful for the transformative 200-hour yoga training at Empowered Yoga School. The expert guidance, blending the physical and spiritual has left me feeling both physically and emotionally nourished. The curriculum was well-structured and I was always encouraged to be authentic to myself and embrace my unique style as a teacher. Gemma and Tom have a wealth of knowledge and experience; their insightful wisdom continues to inspire me. Fast forward 3 years and I can’t imagine life without teaching yoga.

  • the perfect place to complete my Yoga Teacher Training

    I would highly recommend Empowered Yoga School. It was the perfect place to complete my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training and gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the practice. I also made great friends and connections in the yoga world, and gained confidence in my ability to share the transformative power of yoga along the way. Gemma [and Chris] is deeply knowledgeable on all elements of the practice and puts in a huge amount of care and thought into the structure of the training. I really enjoyed the variety of what we learnt, and noticed especially that Empowered cares a lot about delivering high quality teaching which has a clear appreciation and respect of the history and origin of the practice. I would encourage anyone considering embarking upon a YTT (even if the plan is to not necessarily teach after) to look no further than Empowered!

  • Gemma is the best yoga teacher I have ever met!

    Her lessons flow and offer challenge so it feels like a real work out, as well as offering the time focus on well-being. I have noticed the results and cannot recommend her classes more highly - they’re amazing!

my style of yoga teacher training

Owner and lead teacher of Empowered Yoga School, I have facilitated 4 trainings since 2019 with many graduates now teaching worldwide.

We continue to build and grow the school year to year and it is a huge passion of mine to pass on the wisdom of yoga from my teachers to you.

Now as a student physiotherapist, I aim to give the most comprehensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology applied to yoga alongside the philosophy, history and teaching methodology.

I cannot wait to start this journey with you.
