200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in the Indian Himalayas with Ayurveda

The training is structured around the traditional eight limbs of yoga, with a strong emphasis on Ayurveda as a companion science. You'll study asana across multiple styles - Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Sivananda, Kundalini, and more - as well as pranayama, meditation, and kriya yoga. The curriculum covers yoga philosophy, anatomy and physiology, teaching methodology, and the practical skills needed to lead classes confidently.

A standout feature is the daily Ayurvedic treatments, included in the price. Each student gets a personal consultation on the first day, then receives treatments like Abhyanga (warm herbal oil massage) or Shirodhara (oil poured on the forehead) based on their constitution. You'll also take part in an Ayurvedic cooking class, learning to prepare sattvic meals that support your practice.

Master Hemu Masant leads the training. With over 12 years of disciplined practice and study under Himalayan masters, he teaches yoga as a complete way of life, not just physical exercise. His approach blends classical philosophy, meditation, Ayurveda, anatomy, mantra, and sound healing, giving you a well-rounded foundation.

The location itself is part of the experience. The school is in Almora, a town in the Uttarakhand hills, surrounded by forests and mountains. Excursions include visits to an organic farm, temple visits, and participation in the evening aarti (ritual of light). Free time can be spent trekking, cycling, or exploring old ashrams and villages.

Upon completion, you'll receive a certificate registered with Yoga Alliance, allowing you to teach internationally. The school also offers lifetime guidance in yoga and Ayurveda to support you after the course. Pre- and post-training support, plus all study materials, are included.
