Once you add flights, an Indian e-visa, insurance and spending money, most international students budget \u20ac2,500 to \u20ac3,500 in total&nbsp;for the month. If you&#8217;re searching for prices, you&#8217;re probably close to booking. So this guide doesn&#8217;t stop at the headline fee. It breaks down what a 200 hour YTT in Goa really costs in 2026\u201327: the course fee, what it includes, accommodation, visa, flights, and the small costs most schools never mention. We&#8217;ll use our own 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Goa&nbsp;at Diksha Yoga School as a worked example, because we can show you every number honestly. About the author.&nbsp;Written by Yogini Manisha, founder and lead trainer of Diksha Yoga School. She is an E-RYT 500 and YACEP with Yoga Alliance, has taught for 16+ years, and has guided more than 23,000 students from 80+ countries. Every fee in this guide is our own published price, and visa fees come from the Government of India&#8217;s official schedule. How much is the 200 hour YTT at Diksha Yoga School, Goa? Our 23-day residential 200 hour training at The Lotus Sutra, Arambol Beach, costs \u20ac1,800 in a twin-shared room&nbsp;or \u20ac2,000 in a private room. The price is the same for every batch from November 2026 to May 2027. Batch (2026\u201327) Twin-shared room Private room 5 \u2013 27 Nov 2026 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 Dec 2026 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 Jan 2027 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 Feb 2027 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 Mar 2027 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 Apr 2027 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 5 \u2013 27 May 2027 \u20ac1,800 \u20ac2,000 What the fee includes Want to see what those 200 hours cover? Read our guides to traditional Hatha yoga, yoga anatomy, yoga philosophy&nbsp;and meditation for beginners. Worked out per day, \u20ac1,800 is about \u20ac78 a day&nbsp;for teaching, a room and three meals. That&#8217;s the number to compare when you look at other schools. What to Expect From a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Goa How payment works See all dates and fees \u2192 What do other 200 hour YTTs in Goa cost? Most residential 200 hour courses in Goa fall between \u20ac900 and \u20ac3,000. On listing sites in 2026 you&#8217;ll see 23-day packages from around \u20ac900, 21-day Hatha and Ashtanga courses in Mandrem around $2,100, and specialist Yin trainings close to $2,900. Price band What you usually get Under \u20ac1,200 Larger groups, basic shared rooms, sometimes meals or pickup not included \u20ac1,200 \u2013 \u20ac2,200 Small or mid-size groups, private or twin rooms, 3 meals, Yoga Alliance RYS Over \u20ac2,200 Boutique venues, specialist styles (Yin, therapy), well-known lead trainers What drives the price Tip:&nbsp;compare the total&nbsp;cost for the month, not the headline fee. A \u20ac1,100 course without meals or transfers can end up costing more than a \u20ac1,800 all-inclusive one. Accommodation: shared or private room? At Diksha, accommodation is already inside the course fee, so the only choice is room type: a private room costs \u20ac200 more&nbsp;than a twin-shared room for the full 22 nights (about \u20ac9 a night). If you choose a school where accommodation is not&nbsp;included, budget for it separately. A clean guesthouse room in Arambol in peak season (Dec\u2013Jan) usually runs well above off-season rates, and you&#8217;ll also need to cover meals, which can add a few hundred euros over a month. Arriving early or staying on after the course? Arambol has rooms and caf\u00e9s for every budget, and we&#8217;re happy to suggest places on WhatsApp. See our Food &amp; Accommodation&nbsp;page for photos of the rooms. India visa cost for a yoga teacher training Most students can join a 23-day yoga course on an Indian e-Tourist Visa, which costs US$25 for 30 days&nbsp;for most nationalities between July and March, or US$10 between April and June, plus a 3% bank charge. The e-Tourist Visa covers short yoga programmes, so you don&#8217;t need a student visa. E-Tourist Visa (most nationalities) Fee 30 days, July \u2013 March (Nov\u2013Mar batches) US$25 30 days, April \u2013 June (Apr\u2013May batches) US$10 1 year, multiple entry US$40 5 years, multiple entry (US citizens) US$160 5 years, multiple entry (UK citizens) US$484 5 years, multiple entry (most EU, Canada, Australia) US$200 Fees are from the official Government of India fee schedule&nbsp;(updated September 2026). A few countries pay nothing, including Argentina, South Africa and Indonesia, so check your passport&#8217;s row before you pay. 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Goa | 11-Day Yoga TTC Guide Our advice: Flights and getting to Arambol Flights are usually the biggest cost after the course fee. Fly into Mopa Airport (GOX), about 30 km and 45\u201360 minutes from our venue, or Dabolim (GOI), about 75\u201380 km and 2\u20132.5 hours away. Airport pickup from either airport is included in the Diksha fee. As a rough guide, return economy fares to Goa (usually via Mumbai, Delhi, Doha, Dubai or Istanbul) are often in these ranges.

Most residential 200 hour courses in Goa cost \u20ac900 to \u20ac3,000. At Diksha Yoga School the fee is \u20ac1,800 (twin-shared) or \u20ac2,000 (private room), including accommodation, three meals a day and airport pickup. Is accommodation included in the course fee? At Diksha, yes: 22 nights at The Lotus Sutra on Arambol Beach. Some schools charge for rooms separately, so always check. What is not included? Flights, your Indian visa, travel and medical insurance, personal expenses, local transport (other than airport pickup) and the optional Yoga Alliance registration fee. Which visa do I need for a yoga course in India? Most nationalities can use the e-Tourist Visa, which allows short yoga programmes. The 30-day version costs US$25 (July\u2013March) or US$10 (April\u2013June) for most countries, plus a 3% bank charge. How much is Yoga Alliance registration after the course? US$50 one-time application plus US$65 a year, so US$115 in your first year. It&#8217;s optional but widely recognised by studios. How much deposit do I need to book? 30% of the course fee: \u20ac540 for a twin-shared room or \u20ac600 for a private room. The balance is due 15 days before the course starts. What&#8217;s the cheapest time to do a YTT in Goa? April and May, when the e-visa fee is lower and flights are usually cheaper. It&#8217;s hotter, so practice is scheduled for the cooler parts of the day. Is a cheaper course worth it? Sometimes. Check group size, the lead trainer&#8217;s experience, Yoga Alliance registration, and whether meals and transfers are included. The cheapest headline price is often not the cheapest month. If a full 200 hours isn&#8217;t in your budget yet, our 100 Hour YTT in Goa&nbsp;is a shorter first step. Ready to plan your training in Goa?
