Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh

Philosophy is the core of any subject and yoga is no different, without philosophy yoga is similar to a body without consciousness.

Philosophy classes at Affiliate Yoga Schools - Rishikesh Yogpeeth are conducted in an interactive environment, where the process not only allows the participant to learn and navigate how to form questions but also helps them reach their own answers regarding mundane, emotional and spiritual life.

We have experienced that the quality of questions determines the quality of life and if one knows the techniques or the path to reach to the answers, life becomes the playground of possibilities.

One of the major outcomes of this is the development of interpersonal communicational skills, which refine the perception and responses towards the events of life for an enhanced experience of it.

Modern understanding of the human organism has really helped this ancient wisdom of Yoga to get established in this era because many of the hypotheses of Yoga now we can observe and evaluate for their health benefits.

Anatomy classes allow the students to gain basic knowledge about the human body and its most important systems.

The culture of Asana practice started as Hatha Yoga Tradition, since then it has crossed a long way to reach the modern versions of Shri B. K. S. Iyengar and Sri K Pattabhi Jois styles of Yoga.

These two are the pillars of the modern form of yoga, where one talks about the precise alignment and the other about the flow. According to the ideology of Rishikesh Yogpeeth, we as the practitioners of Yoga require both, where alignment is the prerequisite to experience the ultimate stillness of Mind and body, at the same time flow is equally important and required in our life for its ultimate expressions and also for its ability to flow even in the odds of life.

These two streams of Yoga studies are the basis of Modern Yoga. Rishikesh Yogpeeth as a Yoga School pays a lot of emphasis on the Traditional practices of Hatha Yoga, which slowly and gradually prepares for Raja Yoga.

As we know Raja Yoga is the culmination of all the Yoga styles and practices. At the same time, we include the concepts of Alignment from Iyengar and flow from different Traditions. We believe that a comprehensive Yoga session supposes to be a good balance between the practice of Static postures and flow.

According to the hypothesis of Yogic scriptures, Prana is the fundamental force behind the manifested state of existence, it manifests as breath within the human organism.

Regular practice of breath regulation is just a medium to unfold the structural matrix of existence for the advanced practitioners of Pranayama but for most of us, only the physical and mental benefits related to these practices are sufficient enough to get attracted to them.

A Pranayama session at Rishikesh Yogpeeth systematically deals with the subject matter to develop a holistic and comprehensive awakening to this potential form of Consciousness. For a yoga practitioner, breath is a medium to reach the self and access realization.

Breath is also called is a psychophysiological mirror of being, which means just by regulation over breath we can regulate the overall complete being.

The traditional hypothesis of Mantra is very close to the science of sound, rhythm and its relationship with silence & Consciousness, Mantras are of two types one without the meanings and the other with meanings, without the meaning called seed or Beej mantra, these are the most powerful sounds of manifestation.

Traditionally, mantras are used to concentrate and ultimately liberate the mind from its limitations. In mantra classes, participants will learn how to develop an inner space for a meditational journey by using these mantras.

In Mantra sessions teachers at Rishikesh Yogpeeth will guide the participants step by step to unveil their own source of potentialities and later on they can use these experiences in their own teachings.

How to withdraw the senses to the internal world is the biggest question in front of many yoga practitioners all around the world. Meditation sessions at Affiliate Yoga Schools – Rishikesh Yogpeeth will provide an extensive range of practices and tools to understand the process and its application, so ultimately participants can discover their own practice of meditation and simultaneously lead meditation classes with impactful experience for their own students. Practices will include.

This is the core of a teacher’s training program, how to teach. This is all about creating an environment where learning takes place without any hindrance.

Teaching methodology sessions at Affiliate Yoga Schools - Rishikesh Yogpeeth fulfills the need of its participants to grow as Yoga Teachers step by step in a systematic manner by developing the sequential self-practice to ultimately guide others as efficient instructors or Yoga Teachers.

We know that in popular culture, the way Yoga asana are depicted; our students can have this question. Our way of Yoga teacher training is grounded in a core belief that Yoga is a mindset, a way of living and is way more than asanas. Our 200 hr Yoga teacher training and retreats is for everyone who is a keen Yoga enthusiast. Our expert teachers will help you learn Yoga philosophy and asana at a pace that works for you and small batch size means a personal attention.

At Rishikesh Yogpeeth and other schools in India, there are 200 hours and 300 hours yoga teacher training courses available to start with. There is no prior experience required for 200 hours of Yoga teacher training. However, for 300 hours, you must have completed 200 hours training prior from a registered Yoga school. Once you complete 300 hours yoga teacher training you become a certified 500 hours yoga teacher (RYT 500). You can also opt for 500 hours Yoga Teacher Training as the two courses of 200 hours and 300 hours are scheduled in sequence in most Yoga schools.

The word hard is relative and hence cannot be answered. Yoga is an experiential journey and one must decide what’s hard or easy for them. Hatha Yoga is the traditional Yoga practice which is supposedly considered as the fundamental of Yoga. All other practices like Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Flow yoga, etc are developed from the base of Hatha Yoga.

Rishikesh is known as the Yoga capital of the world hence you can practice Yoga at every nook and corner of the town. There are many Yoga schools, studios and ashrams for professional training as well as for ad hoc yoga practice. Rishikesh Yogpeeth is one of the best Yoga schools in Rishikesh that offers Yoga Teacher Training as well as multiple Yoga and Ayurveda retreat options where you can practice unlimited Yoga.

You will find hundreds of options in Rishikesh to learn Yoga and Yoga teachers training. One of the best Yoga schools undoubtedly is Rishikesh Yogpeeth, running residential Yoga teacher training for more than a decade.

With more than 200 Yoga schools in Rishikesh, we often get this question! Rishikesh Yogpeeth is the Best Yoga Ashram in India because of 1) the Ashram is built on a mountain that students access by foot after a 30-40 min hike! we specially created this place for Yoga and meditation 2) RYP has individual teachers and a Head of Yoga education for various disciplines of Yoga; and these teachers stay onsite at the Ashram during your stay with us – this means individual attention to students and 3) All-inclusive fully residential program means you will make a deep connection and bond with fellow students and RYP teachers ‘for life’. This is also enabled through RYP’s alumni program called Yoga Bodhi

You do not have to take our word for it – across Yoga Alliance, Google and TripAdvisor our students have given us approx. 1000+ 5-Star reviews, we encourage you to read them and see if our ashram and our programs are good fit for you. Founded in 2006, we have close to two decades of experience in quality yoga teaching – 17,000+ students from 120+ countries have trusted us. 80%+ of our students are from USA, UK, Australia, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Canada and Netherlands with 95%+ students returning rates

As you’d have experienced in any other services or tourist activity – setting price comes down to two factors – 1) Our input costs and 2) Customer Value. In our case the factor #1 is a major factor. Due to no vehicle access, everything at RYP has been brought up by manual labour, all construction, all grocery, all books, all yoga mats, everything. From a school that has vehicle access, this mean our input costs are at 2-3 times Rishikesh city based schools. We also are confident that the value that our Yoga programs offer, our prices are competitive in comparison to suitable alternates in India. We also offer a very competitive Early Bird and Twin sharing options, both of which are geared towards making our programs affordable to our students.

If you wish to teach Yoga in the US and Canada and some of the other countries, then yes you should register yourself with Yoga Alliance.
