200-Hour Multi-Style Yoga Teacher Training in Agonda, Goa

The 200-hour curriculum follows Yoga Alliance's five educational categories and goes beyond them. You'll clock 80 hours of techniques covering asanas, pranayama, kriyas, chanting, and meditation, taught so you both know how to practice and how to teach them. A further 25 hours cover teaching methodology—demonstration, observation, adjustment, instruction styles—and you'll start actually teaching other students during the practicum hours.

What sets this training apart is the depth of the philosophy and anatomy teaching. Dr. Keshava leads the philosophy sessions with a mix of classical texts and practical application, often turning into lively Q&A exchanges. Eleanor Evrard, an osteopath, brings a precise anatomical eye to alignment and what healthy movement patterns mean in practice. You'll also get introduced to complementary sciences like Ayurveda, Sanskrit, mantra yoga, and the panchakosha model of yogic psychology, things that many 200-hour trainings only skim.

The schedule is full-on—classes run 6:30 in the morning until 9 at night on weekdays with a couple of dedicated study slots. Sunday is completely free, and there's a weekly Sat-sang Q&A on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. It's a lot, but the teachers pace it carefully and on weekends you can take a boat trip to spot dolphins, hike into the jungle behind the beach, or just rest.

Yoga Alliance registration is straightforward on completion—the school provides the certificate and you upload it to their directory to qualify as an RYT-200, which is recognised worldwide for teaching yoga in studios, gyms, or retreat settings.
