300 Hour Yoga Rishikesh
Ashtanga Yoga
This Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training Course in Rishikesh is based on the eight limbs of Ashtanga yoga. As the practice of yoga is not merely the practice of asana, we have focused on Yamas, Niyamas, Pranayama, pratyahara, meditation techniques, and mindfulness too. This comprehensive curriculum covers Yoga philosophy based on Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, yogic lifestyle and ethics, yogic diet, anatomy, and physiology for Yoga Teachers and practitioners, to help you form a balanced life. At the end of the course, you will be ready to practice and teach the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series at your own pace.
Traditional Hatha Yoga
‘Hatha’ is a Sanskrit word, which means “discipline of force” and the goal of Hatha yoga is to strengthen your muscles and create a mindful connection to your body. Hatha Yoga is known as the core of Asana Practice. We strongly encourage you to bring your creativity into your teaching styles.
You will also have the benefit to explore other styles of asana practice including Yin and restorative yoga, to develop your experience and knowledge of other yoga traditions and styles during the course.
