200-Hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in Bali

The training covers the full 200-hour syllabus in a balanced way, with equal time given to asana, anatomy, pranayama, meditation, and philosophy. Mornings start with a 90-minute asana and pranayama practice, followed by breakfast and then a lecture or theory session. Afternoons are given to meditation alignment, self-study, and teaching practice, with evenings free to rest. Sundays (mentioned in the food section) appear to be a lighter day, with no lunch served—but the daily schedule above shows a full week, so you’ll need to check the specific rhythm with the host.

What makes this course different is its focus on classical Hatha yoga, not just flow-based vinyasa. You’ll work in detail on postures, alignment, and adjustments, with a strong emphasis on teaching safely and responsibly. The teachers—Master Nirakar, Sam R, Amit Chauhan, Kanchan Ji, Yogini Manisha, and Will Burton—bring different specialties: anatomy, Iyengar alignment, hand balancing, and traditional practice. This variety means you’re not just learning one style, but seeing how the pieces fit together.

The philosophy sessions are discussion-based, not lectures. You’ll explore the Yamas and Niyamas as they relate to teaching ethics, study Sanskrit names at a gentle pace, and learn pranayama, mudras, and bandhas progressively. Shatkriyas (cleansing practices like Neti and Trataka) are introduced with clear guidance. Anatomy is taught in a practical way, connected to movement, so it’s not just memorizing bones but understanding how your body works in a pose.

You’ll also learn how to sequence classes, practice teaching in a supportive group, and get feedback on your voice and presence. The course touches on the practical side of a yoga career—building a student base, ethical promotion—but keeps the focus on the practice itself. Set in the village of Mas, the training feels a world away from the busier parts of Ubud, yet you’re close enough to explore the town’s rice terraces, temples, and art markets when you have time off.
