You do get rest and personal time every day, enough for a walk on Arambol Beach, a visit to a caf\u00e9, or quiet time alone.

It is more than learning poses: you practice, study, observe and teach, and each part supports the others. The curriculum falls into three areas: Area What you study Practice Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga foundations, pranayama and meditation Understanding Yoga philosophy, anatomy and alignment Teaching Teaching methodology and teaching practice You do not need to be highly flexible or already teaching to begin. Sincerity, consistency and a willingness to learn matter more. Explore our 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Goa \u2192 A Typical Day of Training Each day moves between practice, study and teaching preparation. Classes run for around 90 minutes each, with breaks for meals and rest in between. Part of the day Sessions, in order Morning Pranayama and meditation, then Hatha or Vinyasa practice, then breakfast Late morning Yoga philosophy, then anatomy and alignment Midday Lunch and rest Afternoon Teaching methodology, then teaching practice and sequencing Evening Evening practice, then dinner The days are full, and that is by design. Repetition is how the practice settles into your body and the teaching language into your voice. There are no full days off during the training, because each day builds on the one before. You do get rest and personal time every day, enough for a walk on Arambol Beach, a visit to a caf\u00e9, or quiet time alone. Some evenings include meditation, mantra, japa or satsang, depending on the teacher and the group. The exact schedule may change to suit the group\u2019s learning needs. From Practicing Yoga to Teaching It This is where a teacher training differs most from a retreat. Guiding other people asks for skills your own practice does not, and you build them one at a time: You start small by teaching sections of classes. Then you receive feedback and teach again. Confidence comes from that loop of teaching, hearing what worked, and refining. Who You Will Learn From The training is led by Yogini Manisha, founder of Diksha Yoga School and an E-RYT 500 with more than 16 years of experience teaching, training and mentoring yoga practitioners and teachers. She leads the Hatha, Vinyasa and teaching methodology sessions. She is supported by a team of teachers: Together, our team has guided more than 23,000 students from around the world. With a maximum of 10 students per group, you get individual attention and feedback, not a place at the back of a crowded hall. The 23 Days, Week by Week The training moves from settling in, to going deeper, to teaching. Stage What happens First week You settle into the residential routine, establish your practice, meet your fellow students and build the foundations of the course. Middle of the training Your understanding of yoga deepens, and the focus shifts toward sequencing, communication, observation and teaching practice. Final week You bring it all together through teaching practice, feedback and refinement, and prepare to complete the training. Why Train in Goa? Goa gives you distance from your normal routine. The relaxed coastal setting makes it easier to step away from work and home and give your full attention to yoga. Our training is held at Lotus Sutra on Arambol Beach. You practice, study and rest there alongside an international yoga community. Accommodation and Food The residential program includes accommodation, according to the room option you select, and three sattvic vegetarian meals every day.

You do not need professional teaching experience or advanced flexibility. Students arrive with different levels of experience and learn progressively throughout the training. The course is a good fit for: What you bring in attitude matters more than what you can do on the mat on day one.
