6-Month Online Yoga training

January - June 2026

This training is a journey of transformation, inviting you to go beyond the physical and discover the deeper meaning of practice. Together we create a welcoming, supportive community where each person feels seen, valued, and connected.


Yoga is a path of self-discovery and empowerment. Whether you feel called to teach or simply want to explore your own practice, this training offers a strong foundation while honoring the uniqueness of your voice and your journey.


Ayurveda, the sister science of yoga, is woven into our studies. Its wisdom helps you understand your own constitution and how to cultivate balance in body, mind, and spirit. These simple yet profound teachings ripple outward, supporting your health and your way of life.


Meditation is at the heart of what we share. Through stillness and presence you begin to quiet the mind, open to inner peace, and connect with the wisdom already within you. Meditation becomes both a tool for self-care and a doorway to deeper awareness.


We believe your yoga journey is your own. While we offer a strong and steady foundation, you are encouraged to explore, to question, and to adapt the teachings so they feel true for you. Your creativity, intuition, and authentic expression are all welcome here.


Our mission is to guide you into a training that brings self-discovery, belonging, and empowerment. This training will support you in living your yoga more fully with clarity, confidence, and joy.

Who Is This Training For?

Yoga teacher training is not only for those who wish to become certified teachers. The Nature Yoga Teacher Training is for anyone who feels the call to deepen their relationship with yoga and explore its emotional, physical, spiritual, and technical dimensions.


Our 200-hour program weaves together the history and philosophy of yoga with an emphasis on Feminine Form Yoga and Ayurveda. 


Throughout the training, we explore yoga through the lens of Tantra, meditation, dharma and karma, anatomy and physiology, sequencing and cueing, chakras, energetics, and traditional practices that support higher states of awareness. You’ll also be introduced to Yoga Nidra, Restorative Yoga, Yin Yoga, Mudras, and the Business of Yoga.


We welcome guest teachers along the way, offering a taste of their unique approaches. We believe there is no single way to teach yoga. Each of us carries a divine uniqueness, and you are encouraged to discover your authentic voice and live your dharma.


One of the most profound aspects of this journey is the personal growth it awakens. You will learn to meet yourself fully mind, body, and spirit with compassion and acceptance. 


This training gives you the tools to release what no longer serves you and to strengthen what does, opening the path to greater clarity, confidence, and joy.

HEIDI GRACE DIETRICH, E-RYT 500, YACEP

As a yogini and artist, Heidi Grace invites us to explore yoga as an embodied lifestyle, making art with our lives and softening into the presence of the Divine Self. Her teachings weave together the wisdom of Ayurveda, Yoga Nidra, and the balancing of the elements, guiding students toward harmony between inner truth, daily action, and lived experience. Her intention is always to share the deeper layers of yoga that support true freedom and wholeness.


Heidi Grace began her formal training in 2009, completing her 200-hour certification with Marianne Wells Yoga School in Costa Rica. She went on to complete 108 hours of Anusara training in Boulder, Colorado, and in 2013 earned her 500-hour certification with Brenna Geehan and Jean Mazzei of SriYoga in San Francisco. Since 2012, Heidi Grace has been certifying yoga teachers through Yen Yoga & Fitness in Michigan and through her own Yoga Alliance–approved school, Nature Yoga, in Costa Rica, India, and more recently, online.


She is the founder of Nature Yoga, Dharma & Grace Yoga Retreats, and Charlevoix Yoga, offering retreats, trainings, ayurveda counseling and community-based programs that bring yoga into everyday life. During the pandemic, she deepened her studies with additional certifications in Applied Polyvagal Theory in Therapeutic Yoga, Yoga for Recovery (Y12SR), Ayurveda 3.0, Ayurvedic Cooking & Nutrition, and Kundalini Yoga.


Beyond yoga, Heidi Grace serves as a special advisor on human-centered initiatives that accelerate the future of health and well-being. She is also part of a design consulting business in Encinitas, California, offering guidance on creating conscious destinations and sustainable real estate.

Profound, life changing, encompassing and inclusive. No words to truly describe the experience and how it has transformed my life, who I am as a person, partner, mother, and friend. Nothing could have prepared me for the balance this has created, the community, love and support. I will forever be grateful for the divine leading me on this path and Heidi Grace is the most wonderful space holder, guide and most magical soul. An absolute honor to witness. To be a part of this was the most beautifully creative and eye opening experience of my life.

I highly recommend Heidi Grace's Nature Teacher Training to all that want to teach yoga or just 

expand their yoga practice.


We were able to explore deeply into many areas of yoga, allowing us to not only expand our teaching skills, but expand on our personal practice as well. Breathing techniques, mudras, ayurveda, subtle bodies, along with physical yoga was much explored and enjoyed.

She teaches yoga because she loves yoga, and it really shows in her trainings and classes. Magical in every way.
