Sri Lanka Yoga Teacher Training

Set against the natural beauty of Sri Lanka, this 21-day immersion invites you to balance serious study with unforgettable island experiences. Between training sessions, you can enjoy world-class surf breaks, Ayurvedic wellness treatments, snorkelling, swimming, temple visits, and time in nature and wildlife. Or simply slow down with a massage, sauna, or ice bath and let each day unfold at its own peaceful pace.

If you cannot attend the full in-person 200-hour experience, flexible hybrid learning options make this transformational journey more accessible. You can begin or complete part of your studies in Sri Lanka, then finish the rest online from home. There is also the option to complete a portion of the course in Bali or Byron Bay if that suits you better. The goal is simple: to give you the best possible training in a format that works for your life.

Throughout your Sri Lanka journey, you will receive support every step of the way from Sunny Richards, founder of Santosha Yoga Institute. With more than 30 years of teaching experience, Sunny has trained in Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Vini Yoga, Yoga Therapy, Pre and Post Natal Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Trauma Sensitive Yoga, Yin Yoga, Children's Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and Meditation, and she is also a Functional Breath Coach.
