We Are a Registered Yoga School

Yoga Bharati is a Registered Yoga School with Yoga Alliance (RYS 200). After completing the YTT course, one can sign up with Yoga Alliance to become a RYT-200 certified teacher. We also offer RYT-300 courses to enable students to become RYT-500 certified teachers after taking both courses.

Our Objective of Yoga Education

As Swami Vivekananda says "Education is a man making, life making, character building assimilation of ideas". Our yoga education courses are designed to systematically train the student in the techniques of yoga and to begin his/her own journey of self-development and greater self-awareness. We believe in practice before preaching. Benefits of taking this course are: You will be able to develop:

• The ability to integrate body, mind, and soul through various yoga techniques

• Holistic understanding of the philosophy of yoga

• Stress management, prevention of stress related ailments

• Improved memory, creativity & calmness through pranayama, meditation

• Empowerment to serve the society through yoga careers

YTT for Youth

Yoga Bharati believes in inculcating yoga culture to the young hearts. We provide the youth with all the training that adults get, but with special breakout sessions so yoga education is given at their level of understanding. We mentor them through our special youth yoga teachers. We will enable them for yoga teaching by our special mentors. Please contact us for details.

Course Hours

Certification

Certificate: We will be issuing RYT-200 eligible certificate to adults and youth 16 years and above. We will issue Youth Training Certificate (please note, this is not an RYT-200 certificate)

Youth - Additional Note; Youth will be able to upgrade their course in 5 years (min age to upgrade is 16 years) to become RYT-200 certified if students also maintain at least 10 hours of Yoga Bharati’s Continued education units (training) every year and also teach at least 15 hours of classes each year. Examination - Theory and Oral Exams, upgrade fees and other conditions apply. Contact us for details.

Length of Training

On average, YFC can take 2-3 months, while YTT and YYTT can take 6-9 months to complete the entire training. Module 1 is a structured classroom training. Module 2 is based on the announced schedule, and rest of the modules are self-paced. We believe that yoga training is a slow process involving in-depth sadhana and can’t be done in a hurry. Please call us if you have questions.
