The Self-Study Approach: Making Oncology Yoga Training More Accessible

At yoga4cancer, our mission is to train and support as many yoga and healthcare professionals as possible—so that more cancer patients and survivors can safely benefit from Oncology Yoga.

To make this goal sustainable in the face of rising costs and limited external funding, we’ve made a bold shift: offering our world-renowned, 20+ year program in a self-study format.

This change does more than just modernize our delivery. It also makes the training significantly more affordable for every participant.

A Built-In $400 Scholarship

  • Our previous 75-hour program tuition was $1,899.
  • The new self-study model is $1,499.
  • That’s a $400 reduction—essentially a scholarship for every trainee.

By streamlining delivery and empowering learners to guide their own pace, we’ve lowered costs for both participants and our foundation. This ensures we can keep training more professionals while maintaining the same high standards and comprehensive content that define our method.

When compared to other advanced professional yoga programs (many of which range from $2,000–$3,500+), our certificate remains one of the most affordable and specialized options available worldwide.

The self-study format empowers participants to:

  • Take ownership of their learning
  • Engage with the resources and tools provided
  • Progress at their own pace
  • Build independence and accountability as an Oncology Yoga professional

This approach has been tested and proven effective. It allows us to stretch limited resources and train more professionals—bringing healing to more people around the world.


Need More Support? Add What Works for You.

We also recognize that every learner is different. Some may benefit from additional guidance—especially if they are newer to yoga teaching, unfamiliar with self-directed learning, or simply prefer more personal support.

To meet these needs, we offer two Add-Ons for:

  • 121 Mentorship: Personalized guidance from experienced y4c professionals
  • Technical Support: Help navigating the platform or program requirements

This flexible model allows you to customize your training experience—adding the support you value, without paying for services you don’t need.

You’re in control. We’re here to support you—every step of the way.

This optional upgrade provides direct access to a mentor who can help you confidently navigate your Oncology Yoga journey. Use your sessions to get support with:

  • Practical Application Guidance– Need feedback before stepping into a teaching role? A mentor can help refine your delivery and boost your confidence.
  • Practicum Support – If your practicum reveals areas for improvement, 1:1 mentorship can help you bridge the gaps and successfully meet certification requirements.
