300hr Yoga Teacher Training

 

Himalaya Yoga Valley’s 300 hour program is regarded within the field of yoga to be one of the most innovative and transformational advanced training courses for trainees looking to take their personal practice, teaching skills, and specialist knowledge to the next level along with developing and awareness of the tools and methods necessary to help develop and maintain your offline and online yoga business in a fast-evolving space. Our 300 Hour Level 2 Training Course is a continuation of the 200 Hour Level 1 syllabus at an advanced level, for an additional 300 hours of study and skills training. A strong emphasis is placed on learning to teach advanced techniques, sequencing, refining your delivery skills and at the same time developing a personal practice. Our 300 Hr training is an all-encompassing program. This course is suitable for teachers and yoga practitioners who have been teaching to the public and practising on their own who wish to enrich their practical and theoretical body of knowledge and also a great reintroduction to teaching immersion for those who have completed a 200 hour TTC but require extra coaching to take the step to become a teacher and a better practitioner.We focus on four core areas.

    Knowledgeable and kind teachers, small class size, great for people who want to learn traditional yoga. I wish the teaching module had been longer, at least 2 weeks vs. 1.5 weeks. Thank you!

    The Himalaya Yoga Valley Center teacher training program is a wonderful blend of Asana, Philosophy, Anatomy and Ayurveda lectures. It is inspiration, challenge and joy at the same time. All the teachers love what they do and are fully dedicated to support the students on their yoga journey.

    The Himalaya Yoga Valley Centre Teacher Training was the best investment I could have made to deepen my practice, skills and experience. It has been an honour to go on to teach under Lalit’s guidance. The course was in-depth and packed full of information but in a manageable structure. Truly an expansive experience for mind, body and soul. Eternally grateful to the wonderful team. I hope to take the 300 hour TT with them in due course!

    Himalaya Yoga Valley was one of the best yoga trainings I've ever had the opportunity to be a part of. The teachers made such a profound impact on my life and my future and I grew in a multitude of ways. Every part of the training was beautiful, traditional & professional. From Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, Philosophy, Ayurvedic Medicine, Anatomy. I just cannot rave about it enough. I will forever be beyond grateful. I am so excited to go back and further my education there for my 300 hour YTT this upcoming March. I have no doubts it will be another transformative experience.

    One of the best experiences in my life. If you are looking for a place were you want to get taught by experienced, and professional teachers, then you have found the right place. Himalaya Yoga Valley center changed my life and taught me what "real" yoga is and how you can safely teach it to others. 5 stars out of 5 possible. Cant wait to go back there one day and continue my yoga journey I am on.

    Himalaya yoga valley centre provides an amazing well rounded yoga training. I left the course with a strong understanding of the history of yoga and a traditional approach to teaching asana. This course focuses a lot of time on anatomy, philosophy and Ayurvedic principles and less time than other schools on teaching. For me, this was excellent as I already had a foundation in teaching yoga and fitness.
