Rishikesh · 28 days · From USD 607
This 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh is a continuation of a 200-hour YTT, taking you deeper into the practice and philosophy of yoga. The program covers a comprehensive curriculum that includes advanced asana practice in both Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa styles, pranayama, mudras, bandhas, meditation, yoga anatomy, and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, along with practical teaching methodology and supervised practice teaching sessions.
You will be studying the subtle sciences of the body, such as the nadi (energy channels) and chakras, as well as the pancha tattva (five great elements). The course also explores the six schools of Indian philosophy, Vedanta, the Bhagavad Gita, and Tantric yoga, giving you a broad and deep understanding of the yogic tradition. Students will learn how to align, adjust, and prevent injuries in a more advanced way, and gain insights into therapeutic themes for specific postures.
Teaching practice is a significant part of the course. You will learn how to sequence classes, time them effectively, and modify postures to suit different student levels. A typical day includes two asana practice sessions where you'll have the opportunity to teach under the guidance of experienced instructors, receiving valuable feedback to refine your skills.
Guided by Acharya Chandramani and Subhash Petwal, along with an Ayurvedic doctor, the school boasts a small-group setting, with classes capped at 22 participants but often smaller, enabling personalized attention. The school is located in the heart of Rishikesh, a short walk from the Laxman Jhula market and a 15-20 minute walk from the river, which is a peaceful yet central base for your training. The daily schedule is intense, but your rest day provides space to reflect, explore the local area, or simply relax and integrate everything you've practiced.
