Your 22 days
A balanced mix of theory and practice covering Hatha, Vinyasa and Ashtanga, in small batches of at most 12 students.
Begin with Shatkarma cleansing techniques such as Jal neti, Kapalbhati and Trataka. Then learn pranayama, from the science of sitting to Nadi Shodhan, Ujjayi and Bhastrika. These practices fill the 7:15 to 9:00 AM session each day.
Daily Hatha sun salutations and 25 Hatha postures build your base, followed by Ashtanga sun salutations A and B and the standing primary series. Every posture is taught with alignment and adjustment, and meditation and mantra chanting close each day.
Study yoga anatomy and physiology, the chakras, and yoga philosophy, including Patanjali's Yoga Sutras and the eight limbs. Teaching methodology prepares you to lead classes, and you finish with Yoga Alliance certification and the RYT-200 credential.
Choosing where to earn your RYT-200 is a serious decision. Here is what sets our 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India apart — and what to look for in any reputable school.
The single most important credential is accreditation.

On graduating you can register directly as an RYT-200 and teach in 70+ countries worldwide.
The best training comes from genuinely qualified teachers. Our programme is led by Mayuri Shewale, an experienced E-RYT 500 (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher) who has guided thousands of students through their teacher training journey, supported by a faculty specialising in philosophy, anatomy, and meditation.
A 200-hour course only works if your teachers can actually see you practise. We deliberately keep our batches small, so every trainee receives hands-on alignment feedback and ample supervised teaching practice rather than getting lost in a crowded hall.
We have welcomed students from over 60 countries to study yoga in its birthplace. Training alongside a genuinely international cohort — in Tapovan, Rishikesh, the yoga capital of the world — is part of what makes the experience authentic and the connections lasting.
In short: the best 200-hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh combines Yoga Alliance accreditation, experienced certified trainers, small supervised batches, and an authentic setting — the four standards we hold ourselves to on every course.

Structured learning for effective teaching - balanced mix of theory and practical sessions
A Yoga Alliance 200-hour curriculum spans eight core subject areas. Here is what you can expect to explore in each one during your training at Swaastik Yog School.
You will study classical Hatha postures, dynamic Vinyasa sequences, and the structured Ashtanga Primary Series side by side. Each asana is examined from three angles: correct skeletal alignment, safe muscular engagement, and the energetic intention behind the pose. You will learn to enter and exit postures safely, use props to support different bodies, and progressively build strength, flexibility, and balance throughout the training. By the final week, you will be able to teach a full class independently and give clear, anatomically informed adjustments.
Pranayama is far more than breathing exercises. You will study the pranic body (pranamaya kosha), the five vayus (energy currents), and how breath links the physical and subtle dimensions of practice. Techniques covered include Nadi Shodhana (alternate-nostril breathing), Kapalabhati, Bhastrika, Ujjayi, Sitali, Sitkari, Bhramari, and Kumbhaka (breath retention). You will learn how each technique affects the nervous system and when — and when not — to introduce them in a class setting, including contraindications for students with specific health conditions.
Philosophy sessions explore the foundational texts that underpin all yoga traditions. You will study the Eight Limbs of Yoga (Ashtanga) as codified by Patanjali, examining how each limb — from the ethical guidelines of yama and niyama through to the meditative states of dharana, dhyana, and samadhi — applies to daily life and teaching practice. Classes also introduce the Bhagavad Gita, the Samkhya model of consciousness, and key concepts such as prakriti, purusha, the five kleshas (afflictions), and the nature of the mind (chitta). Understanding these frameworks allows you to speak about yoga authentically rather than reduce it to physical exercise.
You do not need a medical background to succeed in this module, but you will finish it with a working knowledge of the musculoskeletal system that makes you a safer, more confident teacher. Topics include the structure of major joints (hips, shoulders, spine, knees), how muscles lengthen and contract during asana, the role of fascia and connective tissue, common yoga-related injuries and how to prevent them, and an introduction to the nervous system's role in stress, relaxation, and the parasympathetic response to yoga practice. Functional anatomy — understanding what is actually happening in a body during a pose — replaces memorisation of abstract diagrams.
Knowing how to practise yoga and knowing how to teach it are two different skills. Teaching methodology sessions focus on sequencing principles (how to build a class from warm-up to peak pose to cool-down), the art of cueing (verbal, visual, and tactile), voice and tone, class management, working with mixed-ability groups, and how to adapt postures for students with injuries or limited mobility. You will lead teaching practice sessions from the first week, receiving structured feedback from teachers and peers. By graduation you will have logged sufficient practice hours to approach your first paid class with genuine confidence.
Morning and evening meditation sessions are integral to the daily rhythm of training, not an optional add-on. You will be introduced to several classical techniques: trataka (candle-gazing), mantra meditation, body-scan awareness, breath-anchored mindfulness, and the deeply restorative practice of Yoga Nidra. You will learn the neuroscience behind why these methods reduce cortisol, improve sleep, and build focused attention — useful background knowledge when students ask why they should meditate. You will also practise guiding short meditations yourself, which transfers directly into your ability to hold space for a class.
Mudras (energetic hand gestures) and bandhas (internal muscular locks) are subtle but powerful tools that regulate prana flow and deepen both asana and pranayama practice. You will study the principal mudras used in seated meditation and during postures, understand how Mula Bandha, Uddiyana Bandha, and Jalandhara Bandha work physiologically and energetically, and learn when it is appropriate to introduce them in a class. Shatkarma — the six classical cleansing practices of Hatha Yoga — is studied both theoretically and, where relevant, experientially, giving you a rounded picture of the traditional Hatha system beyond postures and breathwork.
Ayurveda — India's traditional system of health — is yoga's sister science and the lens through which diet, sleep, seasonal routine, and daily habits are understood. You will learn the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), how to identify your own constitution, and how sattvic (pure, balanced) nutrition supports a sustained yoga practice. This is not prescriptive meal planning; it is a framework for understanding how lifestyle choices affect energy, mood, and the capacity to learn and teach. Many graduates find that Ayurvedic principles change how they structure their personal practice long after the training ends.
This training welcomes students at a wide range of life stages and experience levels. Here are the profiles we most often see — and who thrives here.
If you have been practising yoga regularly for at least a year and feel a pull toward sharing the practice, this training gives you the technical knowledge, teaching hours, and confidence to step in front of a class. Prior teaching experience is not required — only genuine commitment.
Many students arrive at a crossroads — tired of a career that feels misaligned and drawn toward a vocation centred on wellbeing. The 22-day residential format provides the immersion needed to make a genuine pivot, and the Yoga Alliance credential opens doors to studios, retreats, and wellness resorts worldwide.
Years of practice can leave unanswered questions about anatomy, philosophy, or pranayama theory. This training fills those gaps systematically. Many graduates say they leave understanding their own practice far better than they understood it when they arrived, even if they already held informal teaching roles.
Physiotherapists, personal trainers, massage therapists, nurses, and mental health practitioners frequently join to integrate yoga's tools into their existing work. The anatomy and philosophy content is particularly valued by those who already have a clinical or movement background.
Not everyone who joins intends to teach professionally. Some students come seeking a structured period of self-inquiry, away from the noise of daily life. The residential setting, daily meditation, and philosophical study create conditions for genuine inner change that a drop-in class simply cannot replicate.
Rishikesh is where many of the most respected yoga lineages were formalised and where the Ganga flows out of the Himalayas. Studying here — rather than in a city studio — means learning yoga in the cultural and geographical context it emerged from, which adds a dimension of authenticity no curriculum document can capture.
Prerequisites: You should be practising yoga regularly and be comfortable with a range of basic postures. You do not need to be advanced — openness to learning and physical and mental commitment to 22 days of full immersion are the real requirements.
A residential yoga teacher training is unlike any other educational experience. Here is an honest picture of what daily life looks like and why the live-in format accelerates learning.
When you live, eat, practise, and study alongside your fellow trainees, learning happens continuously — not just during formal class hours. Conversations at brunch about a philosophy class, adjustments you give a peer during evening practice, and late-evening discussions about the sutras all contribute to your development as a teacher. The 200 hours stipulated by Yoga Alliance are a minimum; the lived hours of a residential training carry you well beyond that benchmark.
Days begin early — sunrise in the foothills of the Himalayas is something most students describe as transformative in itself. Morning practice is followed by brunch, academic sessions, a short rest period, afternoon asana or practicum, and evening meditation or philosophy. This rhythm mirrors the sattvic lifestyle that yoga philosophy recommends: rising with the sun, practising consistently, studying with attention, and resting fully. Many graduates report that the daily schedule becomes one of the most valuable things they take home with them.
Included meals are prepared according to Ayurvedic and yogic dietary principles: fresh, vegetarian, and designed to support sustained energy and a calm mind rather than stimulate or agitate. Eating communally is itself part of the training — it slows mealtimes down and makes you more aware of food as fuel for practice rather than entertainment.
Training alongside people from different countries who share the same intention creates bonds that consistently outlast the course itself. The international cohort is one of the most frequently mentioned highlights in graduate feedback. Your fellow trainees become practice partners, accountability contacts, and collaborators in the years after certification.
Rishikesh sits at the point where the Ganga leaves the Himalayan foothills and enters the plains — a geography that has drawn seekers, scholars, and yoga masters for centuries. Studying here means that the rivers, temples, ghats, and surrounding forests become part of your education. Weekend free time for Ganga walks, visits to ashrams, or simply sitting with the river connects your classroom learning to a living tradition in a way no urban training can replicate.
Immersive training is demanding. Physical fatigue in the first week is normal as your body adapts to daily practice. Philosophy and anatomy sessions require focused attention. There will be days when teaching practicum feels uncomfortable. This is expected and is part of the growth process. Arriving with a regular personal practice, some familiarity with basic yoga terminology, and a willingness to be a beginner in aspects outside your comfort zone will set you up for a rewarding experience.
Understanding what the Yoga Alliance credential actually means — and the steps involved in earning it — removes much of the uncertainty prospective students feel before they apply.
The Registered Yoga Teacher 200 (RYT-200) is the globally recognised entry-level professional credential for yoga teachers. It is awarded by Yoga Alliance, a US-based non-profit that sets curriculum standards for teacher training programmes. Studios, retreat centres, and wellness resorts around the world use RYT status as a baseline hiring requirement. Having the credential signals to employers and students that your training met a defined standard of breadth and rigour.
The credential is earned in two stages: first by completing a course at a Yoga Alliance-registered school (an RYS, or Registered Yoga School), and then by registering yourself as an individual teacher on the Yoga Alliance website. Both steps are required — the certificate from your school is the evidence; the registration is the official record.
As a Yoga Alliance-registered school, we issue you a course completion certificate upon successfully finishing the programme. This certificate contains the information Yoga Alliance requires to process your individual registration: the school's RYS number, your training hours broken down by subject area, and the dates of your training.
Our teaching staff will guide you through the Yoga Alliance online registration process, which you complete yourself directly on the Yoga Alliance website. Once approved, your name appears in the public Yoga Alliance teacher directory, which many studios use when vetting applicants.
Attend all required sessions, pass the practical and written assessments, and log your teaching practice hours.
We issue your school completion certificate, which serves as the official record of your training for Yoga Alliance registration.
Create your individual account on the Yoga Alliance website, submit your certificate details, and pay the registration fee (set by Yoga Alliance). You are then listed as an RYT-200.
Your learning outcomes depend as much on who teaches you as on what the curriculum covers. Here are the lead teachers who guide the 200-hour programme.

Ho frequentato in India a Rishikesh il mio corso di formazione insegnanti di yoga di 200 ore, un’esperienza intensa che mi ha arricchita non soltanto dal punto di vista della pratica, ma anche sul piano personale e interiore. Desidero ringraziare in particolare i miei maestri Maiuri e Raul, che ho apprezzato per la loro preparazione, la passione e la disponibilità nel trasmettere le loro conoscenze. Le loro lezioni mi hanno permesso di approfondire diversi aspetti dello yoga, della respirazione, dell’allineamento delle posture e della filosofia yogica. Questo percorso mi ha dato l’opportunità di mettermi alla prova, superare alcune difficoltà e scoprire nuove risorse personali. Tornare a casa con il diploma di insegnante di yoga di 200 ore rappresenta per me un traguardo importante, ma soprattutto l’inizio di un nuovo cammino. Porterò con me gli insegnamenti ricevuti, le esperienze vissute in India e le persone che hanno contribuito a rendere questo viaggio significativo.❤️❤️ Grazie maestri Maiuri e Raul per il contributo che avete dato alla mia formazione e alla mia crescita personale.❤️❤️❤️

My name is Ruby, and I’m from France. 🇫🇷 I recently completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Course at Swaastik Yog School in Rishikesh, and it was such a beautiful and transformative experience. The classes were well-structured, informative, and inspiring. I learned so much about yoga, asanas, pranayama, meditation, and yogic philosophy. The teachers were knowledgeable, supportive, and always ready to help us improve. Every day brought something new, and I feel more confident in my yoga practice and understanding. One thing I especially admire is that Swaastik Yog School is a women-owned school. It was inspiring to see a woman lead and create such a welcoming space for students from all over the world. The atmosphere felt warm, peaceful, and friendly, and I truly felt like I was part of a family. I’m grateful for all the beautiful memories, the amazing people I met, and the knowledge I gained here.

Doing my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Swaatik Yoga School in Rishikesh was honestly one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. The environment is incredibly peaceful and welcoming, which made it so easy to disconnect from everything outside and fully immerse myself in the practice. From the very beginning, I felt safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. The classes are intense, but in a very balanced and thoughtful way. You can really feel that the teachers are invested in your personal journey, not just in delivering the content. And Mayur… she’s truly amazing. Such a strong and inspiring woman, yet so warm and present at the same time. Her classes were some of the most impactful moments of the entire experience for me. One of the things that made this training even more special was being in an all-women group. It created such a deep sense of connection and a safe, supportive space that I had never experienced before. It really wasn’t just a course, it felt like a deep inner journey. If you’re considering doing your training, I genuinely recommend this place from my heart

I had a heavy past few years and 2025 was really draining, hence had come to Rishikesh with no expectations, one thing I knew was would do some Yoga and Relax. After couple of days strolling in Rishikesh, decided to look for a yoga class. Did a google search and after few calls at other centers which went unanswered, I called Swaastik Yoga institute, the call was answered promptly and Mayuri Mam answered few questions and I headed to the institute, liked the vibe of the place and Ranjana Mam assisted me with registration initially I enrolled for Hatha and Pranayam yoga, after couple of days experience I got myself enrolled for Aerial Yoga. It was the best decision of my life and I thank destiny for brining me to Swaastik Yog school, Mayuri mam is extremely talent and very professional she knows her stuff and was very supportive from the very beginning, Ranjana mam was great with Pranayam and Hatha sessions and Mayuri mam taught us well Aerial was something challenging for me but her guidance helped me overcome the fear and now I am a certified Aeria Yoga trainer. I also did a sound healing session and it was a great experience as well the results were spot on and now I know which chakra I should be working on(Thank you very much Mayuri Mam) Very professional team and the support has been fabulous, this is going to be my go to place for any future Yoga activities and highly recommend Swaastik Yog School.

I had a beautiful experience doing my 200hs TTC course with Mayouri. Because the group was small, she was able to give personal attention to each student, correcting our postures, alignment, and technique in a very detailed way. She is demanding in the best sense — she truly wants you to grow, learn properly, and become confident in your practice and teaching. The practices were well structured, deep, and meaningful. I felt supported and challenged at the same time, which helped me improve a lot. We also had the opportunity to try some acro-yoga, kundalini yoga and aereal. That was super fun too! The place was also amazing. The yoga shala with the sun shining in middle of winter was delicious. Also the terrace where we practiced too was beautiful, peaceful and perfect for yoga. It was a lovely space to share meals together, connect and relax too. Location in middle of Tapovan close to everything too which is really practical. What I appreciated the most was the atmosphere. It felt like a small family. There was warmth, respect and genuine care between everyone. I’m very grateful for this experience and I highly recommend Mayouri’s TTC to anyone who wants serious training in a supportive and loving environment.
