It’s a system for providing world-class experiences that combine the best benefits of yoga with cutting edge techniques for building muscle and shedding pounds.

The yoga market is primed to explode in the next two years, especially in programming for men. Be ahead of the curve and get trained now to offer classes for this growing customer base. With a rapidly growing roster of passionate instructors, classes across the U.S., partnerships with some of the world’s biggest fitness brands, and hundreds of chill-inducing student testimonials, we know we’re onto something.

“Prior to the training I was definitely enthusiastic about Broga, I loved the concept and saw a great need for something like Broga. After the teacher training, my enthusiasm for Broga is on a whole new level. I have such an appreciation for what Broga is on a mission to do, what it already has succeeded to do in it’s classes, and all the work and thought that has been put into it. I honestly feel proud to be a part of Broga (if I pass- ha!). I was just more impressed and excited the more I learned at training. Before training, I had taken a few Broga 1 classes, and had a basic understanding of what Broga was about -but after teacher training- breaking down the sequencing and class structures I just grew a whole new level of respect and appreciation. This is clearly the product of years of experience, and hard work. I just love it- I think you are all awesome!” - recent Broga Trainee
