200-hour Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga TTC – India – Jan 31 - Feb 13

This 100-hour immersion is designed for anyone who wants to deepen their practice within a supportive and well-structured yoga community. It is especially suited to students seeking a focused 14-day experience, those who cannot commit to a longer teacher training, practitioners who are less interested in certification but eager to explore yoga, pranayama, and meditation, and experienced teachers from other styles who want to build a stronger foundation in Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow.

What to Expect

The program runs alongside the 200-hour Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga TTC, with shared classes for both groups. The course lasts 14 days, including check-in and check-out, and a slightly shorter stay may be arranged if needed. Daily training follows the same structure as the 200-hour trainees, from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm, with weekends excluded.

Each day includes:

• Two asana classes with Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow
• Pranayama and meditation sessions
• Yoga philosophy discussions
• Alignment and hands-on adjustment workshops
• Yoga anatomy classes
• Principles of teaching

Note: This 100-hour course is intended to deepen your understanding of Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow Yoga, but it does not provide the qualifications or tools needed to teach yoga.

Training Focus

The physical practice centers on a modified Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series and dynamic Vinyasa Flow. Philosophy classes explore the roots of the Ashtanga system and the wisdom of the Yoga Sutras, while bonus Yin Yoga classes add a restorative dimension to the training. The approach is traditional in foundation yet modern in spirit, welcoming personal creativity, intuition, and diverse spiritual perspectives.
