Multi-style Hatha Ashtanga Vinyasa asana

Multi-Style Asana — Hatha + Ashtanga + Vinyasa

Most schools teach one style. Our 200 hour yoga TTC in Rishikesh trains you in three: traditional Hatha for foundation, Ashtanga primary series for discipline, Vinyasa for creative sequencing — so you graduate able to teach any class type, anywhere.

Pranayama and Shatkarma module

Pranayama & Shatkarma Module

Daily morning Shatkarma (Jala Neti, Kapalbhati, Trataka) followed by 10 classical pranayama techniques — Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika, Bhramari, Ujjayi and beyond. Taught by Bhupendra (E-RYT 500), our specialist in pranayama and meditation.

Supervised teaching practicum

Supervised Teaching Practicum

From week 2, you teach real classes to your peers under direct trainer supervision. You receive written feedback on cueing, sequencing, demonstration, hands-on adjustments, and class management — not just theory you forget after exam day.

Yoga philosophy from original sutras

Philosophy From the Source Texts

Patanjali Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Hatha Yoga Pradipika — read directly, not via summaries. We translate Sanskrit terms (Yamas, Niyamas, Kleshas, Samskara) so you can teach philosophy with confidence, not generic platitudes.

Meditation by the Ganga

Meditation — 6 Techniques in 24 Days

Trataka (candle gazing), Yoga Nidra, Vipassana-style breath awareness, Mantra meditation, Chakra meditation, Silent Ganga riverside sit. You leave with a personal toolkit, not a vague "just sit and breathe" instruction.

Anatomy + Subtle Body in One Module

Modern functional anatomy — joints, fascia, breath mechanics, common asana injuries — taught alongside the classical 7-chakra and 5-koshas system. Practical clinical knowledge so you can teach safely AND speak the traditional language.
