200-Hour Hatha Ashtanga Vinyasa YTT, Rishikesh
Quick Overview
At House of Yogis Rishikesh, the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is both a certification and a rite of passage — an initiation into a profoundly transformative path of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. Recognised by Yoga Alliance USA, this foundational course is carefully designed to balance practical learning with the rich philosophy and timeless wisdom that yoga embodies.
Rishikesh — the sacred birthplace of yoga, cradled by the shimmering waters of the Holy Ganga — is the setting for your journey. For 25 immersive days you live, breathe, eat, and study yoga in one of the most revered spiritual ecosystems on earth.
Our curriculum offers a robust framework in asana, pranayama, meditation, anatomy, teaching methodology, adjustments, and the philosophical lineages of Hatha, Ashtanga Vinyasa and Kundalini. Beyond technique, the deeper transformation arises quietly: when mind, body and spirit settle into harmony, a new sense of presence, purpose and peace begins to take root within you.
