14-Day Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh: Hatha, Ashtanga & Vinyasa

The 100-hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh is structured for beginners, yet it can also serve as a refresher for those with some experience. The course breaks down into practical and theoretical sessions, with a strong focus on understanding the 'why' behind each pose and technique. You'll study Hatha, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa flow, along with pranayama (breathing techniques), meditation, bandhas, mudras, and kriyas. Teaching methodology is a core component, so you'll learn how to sequence classes, give adjustments, and lead students confidently.

What sets this training apart is the school's commitment to blending yoga with spirituality, a combination they believe deepens the practice and understanding. The teachers are all certified with years of experience, and they bring their own specialties—from Iyengar to Ashtanga—to the program. The team includes Raghav Khantwal, who holds a master's in yogic sciences and has worked with Doordarshan and the Ayush Ministry, and Ajay, who spent six years teaching at a California Fitness & Yoga center in Vietnam. Yogini Yoshita, a registered Yoga Alliance teacher, brings energy and fun to her Ashtanga classes.

Rishikesh itself is a key part of the experience. The town is intersected by the holy Ganges and surrounded by ashrams and yoga shalas. The school's residential premises are designed to feel like a second home, with a calm, natural atmosphere that supports focused study. You'll find basic amenities like restaurants, ATMs, and healthcare nearby, so you won't be isolated, yet the setting still feels peaceful and removed from big city chaos.

The training includes weekend or day-off excursions, giving you time to explore the area, whether that's visiting local temples, hiking, or simply relaxing by the river. With a group size capped at 20 participants, you'll get plenty of individual attention from the teachers. Reviews often mention the strong sense of community and the opportunity to meet people from all over the world, making it more than just a certification course—it's a chance to connect and grow.
