300-Hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training in the Himalayan Foothills of Rishikesh

This 300-hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh follows the traditional path of Ashtanga and Vinyasa flow, building from a revision of the primary series to the more demanding intermediate series. Each day follows a time-honored rhythm, starting with internal cleansing practices (kriyas) and breath control (pranayama) before the sun rises, then moves into a 90-minute asana class that pushes your physical limits while teaching you how to sequence and adjust students safely. The schedule includes daily philosophy and anatomy lessons, giving you the theoretical foundation to back up your practice.

What sets this training apart is its location in the Himalayan foothills, the birthplace of yoga, and its team of teachers who have dedicated their lives to the practice. The lead instructors—Sarvottam Kumar (ERYT-500) and Dr. Yashpal, a gold medalist in yoga championships—are joined by a faculty that includes Dr. Naveen, Soney, and Manish, all of whom bring years of teaching experience and a genuine passion for their craft. They're known for being patient, clear communicators, and deeply supportive. Guest speakers add extra depth to the curriculum.

The course is structured intensively, but there’s also time to breathe. Sundays are completely off (though only breakfast is provided), allowing you to rest, explore, or catch up on studies. Two local sightseeing trips are woven into the month to help you soak in the natural beauty—think walks to waterfalls or camps in the hills. By the final week, you'll be leading your own demo classes, putting your skills into practice before receiving your certification. It’s an affordable, no-frills training that focuses on what truly matters: transforming your practice and your teaching.
