Brittany leads RYT 200 and 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training Programs as an incredible opportunity for you to deepen your yoga practice and impact all areas of your life.

"Witnessing Brittany facilitate this training is a real masterclass in leadership. The way she sequences the content of the program is brilliant and her classroom management is phenomenal. She does such a tremendous job bonding the group, getting us comfortable, feeling supportive and inclusive of each other."

Since 2015, Brittany has led yoga teacher trainings through her Yoga Alliance-accredited school, Lotus Yoga (formerly Container Collective Yoga), blending over 5,000 hours of teaching experience and more than 1,200 hours of training. Unlike many facilitators, Brittany has not only practiced and taught extensively but has also been specifically trained in facilitation, allowing her to guide teacher trainings with a level of depth and expertise that’s rare in the field.
​
Her trainings, available live online, in person, or as a combination, encourage students to go beyond the mat and embrace yoga as a way of living and being in the world.

Completing my 200-hour yoga training under the guidance of my exceptional trainer, Brittany Hopkins, and her assistants, has been nothing short of transformative. Their depth of knowledge, unwavering support, and passion for yoga have created an environment where growth feels not only achievable but natural.

• ​Becoming a certified yoga teacher was just an added bonus to this journey. I knew I was going to grow and hoped I would heal, but I had no idea I would find my purpose in life and connect with incredible people I can’t imagine my life without. This year, I achieved things I never thought possible and became a woman I’m proud of. My heart is healing, my mind is settling, and my soul is filling."​

As a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience, I've dedicated my career to helping people heal their inner wounds and reconnect with their authentic selves. My healing journey began in my teens, fostering a deep appreciation for therapy, mindfulness, and practices that support personal growth. Years later, yoga became a profound part of that journey, offering me a way to unite my body and mind that was transformative.

In the summer of 2023, I registered for yoga teacher training to deepen my yoga practice. I envisioned learning to guide students through poses, sequences, and the beautiful flow of asanas. I looked forward to exploring yoga philosophy and studying pranayama. I received all of that—and more. What I didn't expect was how much the training, facilitated by Brittany, would mirror the inner healing work I've dedicated my life to. It provided practical tools that transformed my understanding of myself and became powerful resources I now use with my clients.

Brittany has a beautiful ability to make the abstract tangible and immediately applicable. Her approach blends ancient yogic teachings with modern, real-world tools for self-discovery. Her yoga teacher trainings are practical and accessible for anyone ready to explore and gain clarity, balance, and authenticity.

Brittany doesn't just teach yoga; she holds space for self-exploration and transformation. Her compassionate yet incisive guidance goes beyond the mat, offering tools that ripple into every area of life—helping you navigate challenges, cultivate presence, and step into your higher self with confidence.

I'm endlessly grateful to have been her student and thrilled to see her wisdom shared with so many.
