200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training – Nepal

This is a 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Nepal, offered by Tattvaa Yogashala in Lumbini Province. It is a residential yoga teacher training course for people who want a 200 hour foundation in teaching yoga, set outside the usual Indian teacher training towns. Tattvaa Yogashala is based in Rishikesh and runs its trainings in several places, with Nepal as one of its locations alongside Bali, Goa and Kerala.

The Shape of the Training

The course runs for 25 days, a little over three and a half weeks, as a single continuous block. That length gives time to settle into a daily routine of study and practice instead of fitting a teacher training around ordinary life. Tattvaa Yogashala offers the same 200 hour course in Nepal in several batches across the year, so there is more than one start point to choose from.

The organizer also runs a 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Nepal, at 30 days. Many people take the 200 hour course first and continue to the longer one afterwards, though the 200 hour training stands on its own as a complete program.

The Setting

The training takes place in Nepal, in Lumbini Province, the region of the country that lies in the southern lowlands toward the Indian border. The same program is offered in Nepal, Bali, Goa and Kerala, so Nepal is the choice for those who want to study in the Himalayan country itself.

Rooms are offered on a two-sharing basis, which means you share a room with one other participant. That suits those who like company during an intensive course and want to keep costs down.

Before You Go

- Format: a 25-day residential teacher training, with rooms shared between two people.
- Level: this is the 200 hour course, the first stage of the organizer's teacher training ladder, which continues to 300 hour and beyond.
- Choosing a batch: several Nepal batches run through the year, and each one is listed with its own start and end. Check the dates shown on this page against your travel plans, and note that places on each batch are limited.
- Applying: participation is by application to the organizer.

If you are weighing locations, the Nepal course follows the same length and room arrangement as the other Tattvaa Yogashala 200 hour trainings held outside Rishikesh, so the choice comes down to where you would most like to spend the three and a half weeks.
