Beachside Ashtanga & Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training in Goa

The 100-hour teacher training at Agastya Yoga is structured to give you a comprehensive foundation in yoga, blending Hatha and Vinyasa styles. Each day follows a rhythm: early morning pranayama and chanting, a two-hour asana practice, then theory sessions on anatomy, philosophy, and Ayurveda. After lunch, there's time for rest or self-study, then you'll move into guided teaching practice, where you'll learn to sequence, cue, and adjust. It's hands-on, so by the end of the week you're already comfortable leading a class.

What makes this course different is how much it packs into 11 days. You won't just learn postures—you'll study the Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Hatha Yoga Pradipika in a way that feels practical, not academic. You'll also do a bit of teaching every day, starting with small segments and building up to a full class by the end. The instructors are all experienced and genuinely supportive; Yogendra, the lead teacher, is known for making complex ideas clear and for pushing students gently but firmly.

The location is a big part of the appeal. Agastya Yoga sits in Keri, a village that's still quiet and unspoiled, even by North Goa standards. Querim Beach is the closest, and it's usually empty, so you can have the sand to yourself for sunset meditations. Arambol Beach, with its music scene and paragliding, is a short drive away. The property itself has a garden, a yoga shala, and a terrace where you can practice or just read. It's a peaceful place to focus, and the community that forms during the course is one of the reasons guests rate it so highly.
