28-Day Advanced Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in Athens, Greece

The 300-hour RYT program at Yoga Skyros Academy is designed for yoga teachers who have already completed their 200-hour certification and have at least 70 hours of teaching experience. It's structured to deepen your understanding of Hatha Yoga, the mother of all yoga styles, and elevate you to an advanced level. The curriculum covers everything from Patanjali's sutras and the history of yoga to chakra science, anatomy, and hands-on adjustment techniques. You'll also study 45 new asanas to add to the 33 learned in the 200-hour training, master sequencing, and develop the skills to create and lead your own workshops.

What sets this training apart is its intensely practical, career-focused approach. The academy has been training instructors since 2005, and its graduates are qualified, competent, and employable from day one. The entire course is taught by the masters Carmen and Dietmar, who emphasize the 'authentic Indian way' of teaching—one-on-one mentorship and deep, personal instruction. With a maximum of 10 students, you'll have rare access to your teachers and a close-knit learning community.

The academy recently relocated to a new space in Glyfada, designed by Theodora Papadaki of Thera Design Studio. The building features a beautiful yoga room with wooden floors and balconies, plus a rooftop terrace offering sea views. It's located just 2.5 kilometers from the sea and half a kilometer from Mount Hymettus, with supermarkets and cafés within a 300-meter radius. While the training is intense, you'll have time to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle, swim in the Aegean, or hike in the nearby hills, finding balance between study and leisure.
