Rishikesh · 12 days · From USD 790
The core of this course is the Ashtanga primary series combined with dynamic Vinyasa Flow. You'll learn the full sequence, with close attention to alignment, breath synchronization, and how to offer hands-on adjustments. Unlike more general teacher trainings that touch on many styles, this one is entirely focused on these two practices, so you build real depth and precision in a short time.
Daily life at the ashram is structured around your training. You'll have a morning asana practice, followed by breakfast, then anatomy or philosophy, and a long lunch break to rest. Afternoons continue with teaching methodology, where you'll practice cueing and sequencing, and evenings might include meditation or restorative sessions. The schedule is full, but the pace is manageable, with time to digest what you're learning.
The teachers are experienced and knowledgeable, and they're supported by a dedicated team at the ashram who handle everything from cleaning to airport pickups. Guests consistently mention the quality of instruction and the warmth of the staff. The ashram itself is built to feel like a sanctuary – there's a yoga shala, a meditation cave, and open spaces that look out onto the hills. It's a place that helps you focus on the practice.
Though it's a teacher training, many people come simply to deepen their own practice and understanding of yoga. The certification is a bonus. If you're serious about yoga and want an immersive experience in one of the world's most important yoga cities, this is a solid choice.
