For the second year in a row, Kripalu is pleased to offer the Global Majority 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (GMYTT) from February 27–June 5, 2026, specifically dedicated to preparing members of the Global Majority to become Kripalu Yoga teachers.

Global Majority is a collective term that refers to Black, Indigenous and People of Color. At Kripalu, it is our mission to build an inclusive environment where learning and healing can be done in familiarity and safety for those that have been historically excluded and underrepresented within wellness spaces.

“It's hard to stand for people whose voices are not traditionally heard in the mainstream. It defines Kripalu as a thought leader and an organization of compassion and courage.” ~ Rolf Gates

Through this training, we cultivate a diverse environment where BIPOC practitioners learn from BIPOC Kripalu faculty and immerse themselves in an experience that is true and authentic to them at the deepest level.

Inspired and guided by Swami Kripalu and the teachers before him, our programs are rooted in ancient teachings that show us “how to human” in the present moment.

We embrace practices that have carried people forward for thousands of years and show you how to integrate them into your daily life. And we do it together, learning from each other, as we adopt powerful new ways of being in the world.

Our Kripalu Yoga, Lineage-Based Teacher Trainings, and Ayurvedic Lifestyle & Healing experiences work to honor our living lineage and continue spreading ancient wisdom beyond our walls and out into the world.

Today is Swami Kripalu’s birthday, marking the 113th birthday of the yoga master behind the Kripalu lineage who was born on this day in Gujarat, India, in 1913.

Swami Kripalu was a devoted yogi with an inquisitive mind who explored every facet of the yoga tradition and believed that direct experience on the mat or meditation cushion helped to catalyze growth and bring the teachings of yoga to life.

“What Swami Kripalu offered, and what Kripalu continues to foster today is a practice and an approach that can serve us well in times of trouble and challenge, as well as in navigating the ups and downs of daily life. By tapping into the wisdom of yoga, both on and off the mat, we access resilience, flexibility, a stronger sense of self, and a more deeply felt connection to others and the world.” Legacy Faculty Vandita Kate Marchesiello

Today and every day we celebrate our namesake Swami Kripalu for sharing the gift of yoga and laying the foundation for the Kripalu we know and love today.

“As a mother and teacher, I was craving this pause and silence more than I even realized. I left deeply inspired to be more connected to Kripalu, to collaborate, and to expand.

What a gift. I am so grateful for the alignment, and to be able to reflect on how much growth has unfolded simply by deciding to pause and receive.”

In a world full of noise, silence gives our inner self the attention it deserves.

Our Kripalu Signature Silent Retreat experience is one of a kind and a perfect way to embrace the new year—an invitation to slow down, to move into a loving presence, and to enter the sanctuary of quiet.

Happy 2026, Kripalu Family! The New Year has arrived and with it often comes resolutions that tend to focus on depletion and deprivation; striving harder, perfecting habits, eating healthier, exercising more.

While these intentions are understandable, what if this year you tried a different approach? Instead of aiming outward, what if your resolution was to turn inward?

In this article by Erin Casperson, our Director of the Kripalu School of Ayurveda, learn how to nourish rather than deprive along with activities you can lean into that honor the season. Read it here: https://bit.ly/4jgRpGm

As the year winds to a close, we take a moment to reflect on all that we have lived, learned and lost in 2025.

Accompanied by the soothing sounds of birdsong recorded on site in the Berkshires we give thanks for all bittersweet beauty that life has to offer.

We give thanks for the opportunity to be of service and to be in community.

We give thanks for the gift of presence and awareness as we meet life fully, both the joy & the sorrow.
