Overview

Our 300-hour yoga teacher training program offers yoga teachers from all traditions and backgrounds the opportunity to advance their studies and deepen their practice in a truly meaningful and transformative way. Our teachings draw from the source of yoga, based in guidance passed down by Swami Rama—a true yogic master who founded the Himalayan Institute—and rooted in yogic scriptures.

When you enroll in the Himalayan Institute’s 300-hour teacher training course, you don’t just train to become a more experienced teacher—you get the opportunity to participate in one of the most excellent teacher training programs in the world, and learn from dedicated, experienced teachers who represent the unbroken lineage of the Himalayan Tradition. Through their guidance, you will acquire the wisdom and knowledge to confidently interpret and convey the deeper meaning of yoga.

The classes were expertly organized to have a flow to the sacred teachings. The delivery of instruction from the senior faculty was outstanding, effective, one-of-a-kind, and memorable. This experience was life-changing! The opportunity to be immersed in this one-of-a-kind experience to learn from the sacred texts, teachings, practices, and practitioners has changed my life forever, on and off my mat.

— Dorothy

I loved the space that Judy, Sandy, Ishan and Shiva held during their sessions. Even through a device I felt that I was in a classroom with them. Their confidence while speaking, teaching, and engaging the audience seemed effortless.
