200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training – Rishikesh

A 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India, held at Tattvaa Yogashala. It is a residential yoga teacher training course for people who want to study yoga in the town long known as a home for the practice, whether they hope to teach or want to deepen their own.

Tattvaa Yogashala runs this training as a regular monthly batch, so there are several start times across the year to choose from. The school lists no individual teacher for this course, and this page does not name one.

Shape of the Course

Most batches run for 19 days. The course is a full immersion, with the training and your stay in Rishikesh arranged as one block of time rather than a series of weekend modules. Some intakes, such as the early winter batch, run slightly longer at 21 days, so check the length of the batch you are considering.

Batches fill. Some are marked fully booked well ahead, while others are open for application, so it helps to look at the schedule early if you have a particular month in mind.

Rooms and Where You Stay

Two accommodation options are offered with the course: a shared room for two people, or a private room. The shared option is the lower-cost choice and suits those happy to share space with a fellow trainee. The private room suits anyone who wants quiet and room of their own during an intensive stretch of study.

Other Trainings at the Yogashala

The 200 hour course sits within a wider set of programs at Tattvaa Yogashala in Rishikesh. The school also offers:

- A 100 hour training taught in two parts
- 300 hour and 500 hour trainings
- A Master Level training
- A 200 hour and 300 hour Ashtanga yoga teacher training
- Shorter retreats, including a yoga and wellness retreat, an Ashtanga yoga retreat and a Yoga Nidra healing retreat

If you are thinking about a longer path in teaching, the presence of the 300 hour and 500 hour courses at the same school is worth knowing about. The school also runs teacher trainings and retreats in Bali, Goa, Kerala and Nepal, but this course takes place in Rishikesh.

Before You Go

Choose your batch, then decide between a shared and a private room. Because the number of days differs slightly from one batch to another, plan your travel to Rishikesh around the exact length of the course you pick. If a batch is full, a later one runs most months.
