I am interested in becoming a yoga instructor, specifically for prenatal and mommy and me yoga (also known as Itsy Bitsy Yoga in some places). I used to do yoga all the time and I am now getting back into it and my love for it keeps growing. I know it will take a long time, and I am starting by taking regular Hatha Yoga classes, I just want to know the steps I will need to take, and any tips from anyone who has been there.
Could you first explain the link contained in your signature? Once that is out of the way we can certainly discuss the question.
Links like the one you posted are almost always posted by spambots. If in this case you are not a spambot then your reply is crucial. Without that I suspect the forum’s fearless leader will dump your profile.
I’ve only posted a few times, but I noticed in a couple of my posts that same signature showed up and it wasn’t put there by me. And I am, last I checked, not a spam bot. 
@TGKvr
Are you certain
Then let’s get on to the OP’s question.
@greatstudent733
Certified has several meanings. Unfortunately many of those meanings are ultimately hollow. Most trainings will provide a graduate with a “certificate” of completion.
In addition, there is a yoga registry called Yoga Alliance. While they are not in the business of certifying teachers they do at least have some criteria for their registry. Historically that has been 200 or 500 hour when the teacher is able to either provide documentation of training in the areas they require OR has graduated from a program that itself is a registered program.
There is a bit of irony to the whole process of Yoga teachers and certification. If one is well trained over the span of several years, encompassing a robustness to the practice and training then you’d not at all need a paper saying so. It would be self-evident in the teaching. It would, for lack of a better term, be radiating from within.
And if one is opting for merely scraping the surface, doing the bare minimum and “qualifying” to teach in a gym or fitness center, that sort of documentation can be acquired in the span of a week. So teachers not deeply qualified to teach can have a document that says otherwise while one’s who are don’t really need a document at all
So you’ll have to determine for whom the certification is for. If it helps your employer or students feel more at ease then it may be very necessary. But the real question is “how will I train, with whom, to what end, and with what level of commitment”.

greatstudent,
I believe you are not a certified Yoga teacher yet. In this case, you need to go through either a beginner’s cerficate course in a softer type and style of yoga that shares basic methods and philosophy of Hatha Yoga or Iyenger Yoga which has proven to be therapeutic for many years is the Iyenger Yoga.
Next step, of course, should be choosing the place you can affort to take training.
