300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training - Syllabus

• Chanting the mantras
• Body cleansing techniques (Shat karma)

Mantra chanting is considered a powerful practice that can calm the mind and help reduce mental stress. Rooted in Sanskrit sound, it is also used for body and mind healing and for clearing negative energy from the environment.

• Asana study: correct alignment, variations, modifications to minimize injuries

Asanas are a core part of yoga practice. With correct alignment, they may support better posture, toxin elimination, weight loss, improved health, reduced fatigue, and a more relaxed mind.

• Art of sequencing and improvisation in the classroom

Learn to use props intelligently and adapt teaching to different bodies, strengths, and flexibility levels. You will also study the Sanskrit names and meanings of postures so that practice can be approached with greater awareness and mindfulness.

• Mindful breathing techniques (Pranayama)

Breath is understood as prana, the life force. Conscious breathwork can bring meaningful transformation and will be integrated with asana practice. Benefits may include improved blood flow, detox support, and better digestion.

• Meditation (Dhyana)

Dhyana is a deeper state of concentration and meditation that leads toward Samadhi, the ultimate goal of yoga and a state of infinite bliss.

• Fundamentals of human anatomy and physiology
• Yoga philosophy, ideas and hypotheses
• Building Confidence Through Teaching Practice

Teaching yoga requires clarity, discipline, and a deep understanding of both body and mind. This training supports students in developing the confidence and skill to share their knowledge responsibly and effectively.
