200-Hour Multi-Style Yoga Teacher Training in the Himalayan Foothills

Vamayog's 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training is a comprehensive program that goes beyond just learning poses. The curriculum is built to give you a working knowledge of yoga that you can actually use, breaking down the root definition of each asana, teaching you adjustment and alignment techniques, and grounding everything in breath-based practice. You'll also explore the art of yogic cooking and how to make a sattvic diet a lasting part of your life.

The training is led by Tushar and Megha, two teachers who were both born and brought up in Rishikesh. Tushar brings over five years of teaching experience and a background in Asana, Human Anatomy, Adjustments & Alignments, and the Art of Teaching. Megha specializes in Hatha Yoga, Yoga philosophy, Meditation, Mantra chanting, and Shatkarma, and has taught both in India and China. Their teaching is based on theory, discussion, and demonstration, ensuring you understand the 'why' behind each practice.

Your home for the 23 days is a tranquil campus in the Himalayan foothills, about a 60-minute drive from Dehradun's Jolly Grant Airport. The property is designed for focused study, with covered CCTV surveillance, reliable internet, and Western toilets with hot water. The surrounding area offers plenty to explore during your free time, from secret caves used for meditation to waterfalls and the banks of the Ganges.

While the core of the training is rigorous, the schedule also includes evening activities like kirtan and movie nights, plus weekend excursions. This blend of dedicated study and cultural immersion is what makes the course feel like a genuine retreat rather than just an intense course. You leave not just with a certification, but with a lived experience of the yogic way of life in its place of origin.
