ACE and YogaRenew Join Forces to Offer Yoga Certification

The American Council on Exercise (ACE) is proud to announce its forward-thinking partnership with YogaRenew. Through this partnership, ACE offers the YogaRenew 200-Hour Yoga Teaching Training & Certification, a comprehensive, online yoga credential for health and exercise professionals that caters to the growing public demand for holistic health and fitness practices.

"We are thrilled to introduce a new dimension to our certification offerings through our partnership with YogaRenew," said Lauren Shroyer, ACE Vice President of Product and Innovation. "Yoga fosters an enhanced connection between the body and mind, beyond movement alone, through deliberate practice. Recognizing the significance of this approach, ACE is proud to collaborate with YogaRenew, renowned international experts in yoga, to deliver their exceptional educational resources."

YogaRenew, led by founder and CEO Nicolas Goudy and co-founders Patrick Franco and Kate Lombardo, has distinguished itself with its high-quality program and learning experience, earning recognition from Yoga Alliance as a Registered Yoga School (RYS). Like ACE, YogaRenew is committed to providing top-tier health and fitness education through courses that leverage video and other online interactive elements to ensure an engaging and robust learning experience.
