It rests on six pillars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-traditional-pranayama\"><strong>1. Traditional Pranayama<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll practise the classical techniques of the yogic tradition, learning correct technique, the effect of each practice, and who it is (and isn&#8217;t) suitable for. This includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dikshayogaschool.com\/blog\/why-breathwork-is-essential-in-yoga\/\"><strong>Breath awareness<\/strong><\/a> and full yogic breathing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balancing practices such as alternate-nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Energising techniques such as Kapalabhati and Bhastrika<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calming and cooling practices such as Bhramari, Ujjayi and Sheetali<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Breath retention (kumbhaka) and controlled breathing, introduced step by step<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-modern-breathwork\"><strong>2. Modern Breathwork<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the classics, you&#8217;ll explore contemporary conscious-breathing methods \u2014 active, balancing and calming patterns \u2014 and learn how they compare with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dikshayogaschool.com\/blog\/why-breathwork-is-essential-in-yoga\/\">pranayama<\/a><\/strong>. The aim is a rounded understanding, so you can choose the right tool for each student and situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-anatomy-the-science-of-breath\"><strong>3. Anatomy &amp; the Science of Breath<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the body makes you a safer, more confident teacher. You&#8217;ll study:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The respiratory system and the mechanics of breathing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The diaphragm and accessory breathing muscles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How breath influences the nervous system \u2014 stress, relaxation and focus<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The effects of different breathing patterns on body and mind<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-meditation-inner-awareness\"><strong>4. Meditation &amp; Inner Awareness<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Breath is the doorway to <a href=\"https:\/\/dikshayogaschool.com\/blog\/meditation-for-beginners-complete-guide\/\"><strong>meditation<\/strong><\/a>. Daily sessions connect breathing with concentration, relaxation and mindful awareness, so the practices become part of your inner life, not just a technique list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-prana-yogic-wisdom\"><strong>5. Prana &amp; Yogic Wisdom<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dikshayogaschool.com\/blog\/why-breathwork-is-essential-in-yoga\/\">Pranayama <\/a><\/strong>means more than breath control. You&#8217;ll explore the traditional yogic understanding of <strong>prana<\/strong>&nbsp;(life force), the <strong>nadis<\/strong>&nbsp;(energy channels) and how breath, energy and awareness are linked. This gives every technique its proper place within the wider yogic path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-teaching-methodology\"><strong>6. Teaching Methodology<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what turns a practitioner into a teacher.

Yet most of us were never taught how to use it. Our 50 Hour Breathwork &amp; Pranayama Training changes that in seven focused days, taking you from your own breath to guiding a full session for others. Diksha Yoga School&nbsp;is a Yoga Alliance Registered School with bases in Arambol (Goa), Galle (Sri Lanka) and Koh Samui (Thailand). Our breathwork teacher training is held at Green Serene Villa in Galle, Sri Lanka, a calm tropical retreat on the island&#8217;s south coast. The heart of the course is traditional pranayama, conscious breathwork, the science behind both, and the skills to teach them safely. This guide covers exactly what you&#8217;ll learn, a day-by-day curriculum, upcoming dates and fees, and how this training connects with our programs in Goa and Thailand. Ready to book already? Check dates and Enquire on WhatsApp. Who Our Breathwork Teacher Training Is For You don&#8217;t need to be an advanced practitioner or a certified yoga teacher to join. What you need is a genuine curiosity about the breath and a willingness to practise every day. The course suits: Groups are kept small, between 4 and 10 participants, so every student gets personal feedback. The training is taught in English and is open to anyone aged 18 and over. What You&#8217;ll Learn in Our Breathwork &amp; Pranayama Teacher Training The curriculum blends ancient yogic wisdom with modern breath science, so you understand not just how&nbsp;to do each practice but why&nbsp;and when&nbsp;to use it. It rests on six pillars. 1. Traditional Pranayama You&#8217;ll practise the classical techniques of the yogic tradition, learning correct technique, the effect of each practice, and who it is (and isn&#8217;t) suitable for. This includes: 2. Modern Breathwork Alongside the classics, you&#8217;ll explore contemporary conscious-breathing methods \u2014 active, balancing and calming patterns \u2014 and learn how they compare with pranayama. The aim is a rounded understanding, so you can choose the right tool for each student and situation. 3. Anatomy &amp; the Science of Breath Understanding the body makes you a safer, more confident teacher. You&#8217;ll study: 4. Meditation &amp; Inner Awareness Breath is the doorway to meditation. Daily sessions connect breathing with concentration, relaxation and mindful awareness, so the practices become part of your inner life, not just a technique list. 5. Prana &amp; Yogic Wisdom Pranayama means more than breath control. You&#8217;ll explore the traditional yogic understanding of prana&nbsp;(life force), the nadis&nbsp;(energy channels) and how breath, energy and awareness are linked. This gives every technique its proper place within the wider yogic path. 6. Teaching Methodology This is what turns a practitioner into a teacher. Through demonstrations, peer teaching and feedback, you&#8217;ll learn to: Safety Throughout Every module comes back to safe practice: contraindications, when to modify or skip a technique, and how to respect each student&#8217;s individual needs. You&#8217;ll leave knowing how to guide powerful practices responsibly. Your 7-Day Breathwork Curriculum Day Focus What you&#8217;ll cover Day 1 Awareness &amp; Foundations Observing your natural breath; introduction to pranayama and conscious breathing Day 2 Breath Anatomy The respiratory system, breathing mechanics and the physical foundations of practice Day 3 Traditional Pranayama Classical techniques and their place in the yogic path Day 4 Conscious Breathwork Modern breathing approaches and observing breath patterns Day 5 Prana &amp; Meditation Prana, subtle awareness, and breath as a doorway to meditation Day 6 Teaching Methodology Structuring sessions, giving clear instructions, creating a safe space Day 7 Integration &amp; Teaching Practice Guided teaching, reflection and certificate ceremony A Typical Day on the Course Each day balances personal practice, theory and teaching, with time to rest and absorb. You always experience a technique yourself before learning to guide it. A sample day looks like this (exact times vary by location): Time Session 6:30 \u2013 7:30 Morning pranayama and breath awareness 7:30 \u2013 8:15 Guided meditation 8:15 \u2013 9:30 Breakfast and rest 9:30 \u2013 11:30 Breathwork technique: practice and demonstration 11:30 \u2013 12:30 Anatomy and the science of breath 12:30 \u2013 14:30 Lunch and free time 14:30 \u2013 16:00 Teaching methodology and peer teaching 16:00 \u2013 17:30 Evening breathwork session and relaxation 18:30 onwards Dinner, reflection, kirtan or a quiet evening The course opens with arrival, orientation and a welcome practice, and closes with integration, reflection and a certificate ceremony.
