500-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING IN INDIA

The 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Goa is for Yoga students who wish to deepen their practice or serve others in their health and fitness journey. We emphasise self-reflection and exploration through the practice and teachings of Yoga. This training will be a life-changing experience for anyone who wants to learn more about Yoga. It is especially appropriate for: beginning Yoga teachers, dedicated students, therapists and Yoga instructors seeking more information on working with special populations. This course is designed to teach educators how to integrate mindfulness, breathing techniques, and Yoga stretches/postures/movements into the classroom to support students’ physical strength, flexibility, and attention and concentration skills.

The training is divided into two parts: Level 1, the foundational 200-hour teacher training, and Level 2, the advanced 300-hour Yoga TTC. A 200-hour program focuses on the fundamentals of yogic philosophy, anatomy, and teaching practice, while a 300-hour program focuses on the advanced aspects of all components of Yoga. The training program explores the full depth and breadth of Yoga, including its history, philosophies, lineages, and experiential practices such as asana, pranayama, meditation, and gross and subtle anatomy. Participation requires a sincere intention to explore these teachings, both objectively & subjectively, as well as a commitment beyond formal session times to daily reading of yogic texts.

OPPORTUNITY FOR TWO CERTIFICATIONS AT ONCE

Nothing will shape your teaching like a deep understanding of yourself and what drives human behaviour. We know this, which is why this program offers students the unique opportunity to earn both 200- and 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training certifications within a single comprehensive course. This immersive journey supports not only technical teaching skills but also personal awareness and growth.

As the yoga industry continues to evolve, holding both certifications allows you to stand out, expand your professional opportunities, and confidently guide students with depth, clarity, and responsibility both on and beyond the mat.

Prerequisites

No formal experience is required to enrol in the 500-Hour Yoga teacher training program. However, we do recommend that you have had at least 1 year of regular practice before the start of the course, but it is not mandatory. This training offers a deeply transformative journey, helping you explore new levels of strength, awareness, and possibility within your body and mind.

A flexible, injury-free body is NOT required for this training. In fact, we encourage students with all body types and/or physical challenges to consider this program. Yoga is a practice of meeting the body where it is and then working with it to move deeper, slowly and respectfully. The struggles and challenges you will face through the course of this training will only make you a better teacher. If you are waiting for the day when you can finally get your foot behind your head to become a teacher or commit to taking your practice to the next level, you may be denying yourself the opportunity of a lifetime.

Requirements

To graduate from this program, you will need near-perfect attendance, missing no more than 8 hours and making up any missed classes with teacher-approved assignments. You will also need to practice a minimum of 60 hours and complete all assignments.

Detailed syllabus

Syllabus / 500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Goa

The programs offered are highly experiential, transformational, innovative and intensive. They involve not only the study and practice of asana and various other techniques of pranayama, mudras, mantras, and meditation, but also an in-depth study of the Philosophy and History of Yoga, Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous, Endocrine and Lymphatic systems, Advanced Study of Subtle Anatomy and integration of the Wisdom of Yoga and Ayurveda in your daily Life. Here is the detailed curriculum for your 500-hour program:

Asana/Pose breakdown, Props, Modification, and Adjustments –

In this section, we will look at the complete analysis of a pose and what it means for your body. In addition, you will receive adjustments in each pose so that you can feel what it means to indeed be in that posture. As we go through each pose, we will look at how to modify and adjust it to suit an individual’s capabilities and the style of class you may be teaching. Importantly, you will learn and practice multiple physical adjustments for each pose.

Anatomy and Physiology –

The backbone of the physical practice of Yoga starts right here. How does your body move? What creates those moves? Allows the movement? What are the ways we can utilise our bodies to create precision, balance, fluidity, depth, and connection?

Gentle, Hatha, Yin, Vinyasa/Flow, Chair, and Wall work –

While breaking down poses, we go through how to adapt them to the most common styles in standard classes. Not only is this important for teachers, but it is also beneficial for practitioners looking to deepen their practice. The more you understand your body, the more you will discover what it truly needs on any given day.

Yoga Philosophy –

The main philosophy of Yoga is simple, yet not simple at all: mind, body, and spirit are all one and cannot be clearly separated. You will look at this philosophy from different vantage points. As a result, you will be able to correlate what resonates with you to your practice and your teaching.

Meditation techniques –

Here, we dive into the various forms of meditation commonly practised. During this time, we will also practice these different varieties, searching for the ones you connect with best.

Practice Teaching –

The best way to learn is to do! We will take turns teaching each other to build our skills!

Yoga Philosophy, Lifestyle, and Ethics –

We will explore the historical context of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, then spend extra time on the yamas and niyamas, which comprise the ethics of Yoga. Then, we will discuss yoga ethics from a modern, personal, and professional perspective.

Ayurveda –

In Sanskrit, Ayurveda means “The Science of Life.” From its roots, this practice is deeply intertwined with Yoga. Ayurveda places great emphasis on preventive care and encourages maintaining health through a balanced life, sound thinking, a healthy diet, a healthy lifestyle, and the use of herbs.

CERTIFICATION AND REQUIREMENTS

This training is designed for Yoga practitioners, teachers and healthcare providers who want to specialise in applying Yoga’s therapeutic benefits to improve well-being and quality of life. Successful graduates of this program may apply to the Yoga Alliance for RYT-500 status. They will be certified as an Advanced Level Yoga Teacher with a speciality in the applications and benefits of therapeutic Yoga. When you learn to teach others, it will truly change your life. You will deepen your existing practice and master poses you never thought possible. As your practice deepens, you will experience a tremendous transformation in your life.

Teaching Yoga enables you to become self-employed if you choose, and experience the freedom that comes with making your own work hours and schedule.

Requirements:

Completed a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training.
Enrol in our 500-hour advanced Yoga teacher training (200+300 = 500 hours certification).
Minimum 80–90% attendance required throughout the course.
In-depth study of Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, Philosophy, Anatomy & Teaching Methodology.
Successful completion of practical teaching & theory assessments.
Upon completion, receive your 500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification.

However, we believe that a Yoga certification alone will not guarantee an instructor’s success. Each certified student is encouraged to continue pursuing a lifelong study of Yoga and to follow sound ethical principles. However, a certificate from AYM Yoga School is the highest standard of Yoga instruction outside of the Master-student relationship. Empower yourself by enrolling in our accredited, high-quality training. Becoming a yoga instructor will truly enrich your life. If you have always wanted to teach others to live a sustainable, healthy, and happy lifestyle, now is your chance!

500 hour Yoga Teacher Training certification

What is the 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training all about?

Our 500-hour training focuses on self-inquiry while providing a strong foundation in the essential tenets and philosophy of Yoga, as well as practical techniques for working with people of all ages, abilities, and conditions. This training is suitable for those wishing to learn more about Yoga, for Yoga teachers who want to work with special populations or to feel better-equipped to address the multiple needs of even “regular” Yoga students, for therapists who want to incorporate Yoga into their work or renew their commitment to healing, and for family members who want to help their loved ones.

Our training is fun yet challenging, lighthearted yet thought-provoking, guiding deeper exploration of Hatha yoga. On this journey, you will explore:

How to stand at the front of the room and guide others through a well-rounded practice.
How to use verbal and non-verbal cues to guide your clients through poses safely.
Different styles of Yoga, such as flow, gentle, and restorative, as well as what we call Just Great Yoga.
Additional facets of Yoga, such as meditation, pranayama, the chakras, and so much more.
The Business of Yoga and how to establish a successful yoga teaching business for yourself.
An introduction to the Yoga Sutras and their application to your daily life, as well as a discussion of the origins of Yoga and how it came to be what it is today.

The 500-hour Yoga TTC is an intensive course covering all of the vital aspects of teaching Yoga. The course is designed to provide trainees with a broad range of skills and tools to enhance personal, practical, and spiritual understanding, and to develop a good understanding of the science and philosophies that underpin the discipline of Yoga.

THIS IS NOT JUST A TYPICAL 500-YOGA TEACHER TRAINING COURSE

You will leave being able to teach two 90-minute Yoga sequences.

Believe it or not, you will rarely walk away fully prepared to teach a class at many other schools. At AYM Yoga School, it is essential to us that our graduates be able to start teaching immediately after graduation. We spend a lot of focused time practising, studying and teaching the sequences to ensure you are ready to teach excellent classes. It is worth mentioning that while we do teach two set sequences, you will also leave with the tools to design and teach your sequences to just about any population, from beginners to seniors to super athletes. It’s not that amazing!

We teach more than just Asana.

As Yoga has expanded globally and become more popular in the West, many schools have oversimplified it and forgotten key aspects. Our graduates repeatedly share with us how thankful they are that we have preserved Yoga’s authenticity and teach more than just asana. We teach meditation, pranayama, asana, and Yoga philosophy. The course’s philosophical aspect is where people experience breakthroughs, realise challenges from their past, and envision a renewed future.

STUDENT REVIEWS

I recently completed a 500 hour yoga instructor training course in Goa at AYM Yoga School, and it was a truly enriching experience. The program was beautifully designed, allowing me to dive deep into different yoga philosophies and practices, which expanded not only my knowledge but also my perspective on yoga as a way of life. Beyond the classes, I really appreciated the variety of other activities offered, which brought balance and joy to the whole training.

Ruchika Kanoi

I recently completed a 500 hr yoga training in Goa, India, and it truly exceeded all my expectations. The training was not just about asanas; it was a complete journey of the mind, body, and spirit. Preksha guided us through philosophy and ashtanga with such clarity and depth. Rajesh brought an incredible energy to pranayama; he demonstrated a strong understanding of traditional pranayama techniques, effectively combining theory with guided practice.

Megan Coxon

The 500-hour Yoga TTC was much more like a Certificate. It was a safe place where wonderful humans shared their experiences and approaches to learning with one another. Amazing, motivated Teacher Team, a nice facility, delicious vegetarian food, beach yoga, and an intense learning process, both internally and externally. All this together in Goa, in the heart of Arambol, where the beach and beautiful nature are a 5-minute walk away. I highly recommend it.
