29-Day 200-Hour Somatic Yoga Teacher Training in Canggu, Bali

The course runs for 29 days and covers the full 200-hour Yoga Alliance syllabus. Mornings are typically asana practice and technique — breaking down postures, alignment, hands-on adjustments and how to sequence safely. Afternoons move into teaching methodology, where you practise cueing, observing, and giving feedback to each other, and into philosophy and lifestyle sessions drawn from classical yogic texts. The somatic and therapeutic strand weaves through the whole month: there are sessions on shadow work, self-knowledge, and trauma-informed teaching, informed by the facilitators' professional backgrounds in physiotherapy, psychology and trauma release.

The teaching practicums are the backbone of the course. Each student plans and leads two full one-hour classes in front of the group, and the instructors sit in and give direct, specific feedback. It's uncomfortable for most people the first time and much easier the second, which is exactly the point. On top of that, there are peer teaching exercises and smaller practice sessions throughout the month so you're not going from zero to a full class without preparation.

The training takes place at a venue in Canggu surrounded by rice fields, with the ocean nearby. It's quiet enough to study — this isn't a party town centre location — but you're within reach of Canggu's cafes and beaches when you get a free afternoon. Curated island excursions are built into the programme, so you'll see more of Bali than just the road between your room and the shala.

Groups are deliberately small, which means contact hours feel like a conversation rather than a lecture. You'll know everyone's name by day two and the instructors will know exactly where you're struggling. All levels are welcome — you don't need an advanced practice to join, but you do need to be comfortable spending a month on an intensive schedule.

Accommodation is on-site and included in the package price, with triple-share and private room options, plus a course-only option if you'd rather arrange your own lodging. Meals are included throughout. The exact list of what's in your package is confirmed when you book, so ask before you commit if something specific matters to you.
