Which Yoga Style is taught During The Yoga Teacher Training?
Yoga is not only about the physical body or making the body sweat. It’s an ancient science and system of eight limbs (parts). In the Western world, only one part of these eight limbs, Asana (Yoga), is popular.
At Gyan Yog Breath, we teach you all parts of yoga according to its original form, but in a contemporary context.
The Asana part or main style here is called Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga is also known as traditional yoga and is the base of all yoga types we know today. It focuses on creating perfect health on all levels and connects body, mind and soul.
We also teach you one more modern yoga style called Ashtanga Vinyasa as a variation.
By learning traditional hatha yoga first, you create strong roots and a grounded practice so that you can teach any yoga style easily.

A 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is a full immersion into yoga, meditation, yoga philosophy, alternative healing therapies and traditional yogic philosophy. Such a yoga training is an educational program which enables you to 1. advance your personal yoga practice and 2. learn how to teach yoga. A 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training is the level 1 step towards a professional expertise, increased confidence and personal evolution.
RYT 200 stands for Registered Yoga Teacher who completed 200 Hours of Yoga Teacher Training accredited by Yoga Alliance. Yoga Alliance is the worlds most respected standard for Yoga teacher training programs and sets a pretty high level. Once you complete your 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training with a Yoga Alliance registered school (RYS 200), you will be certified with a 200 Hour certification that makes you eligible to register as RYT 200. After two years from your day of registration, you can upgrade your status to ERYT 200 which stands for Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher. You will need to have at least 1000 hours of teaching students to upgrade.
Anyone can do anything, however it’s not recommended to teach yoga without a certification (qualification). It’s not actually about the certification, but about your ability to teach yoga safely and be responsible for your students. In most countries, you will need to have a certification that proves that you completed a Yoga Alliance registered yoga teacher training in order to legally work or start your own business. Most employers who offer yoga jobs will ask you immediately about 1. where you learnt yoga and 2. your Yoga Alliance certification. So, no, you should not (and it will be difficult) to teach yoga without certification.
If your intention is to advance your understanding of yoga and grow personally, then yes! A level 1 yoga teacher training (100 or 200 Hours) is suitable for yoga beginner to intermediates. There is a difference between total beginner and beginner. If you are a total beginner and never did yoga before, we recommend to first of all try out some classes. You should be sure, that you enjoy yoga and want to learn it from A to Z. Don’t forget: a yoga teacher training will be challenging both physically and mentally. Once you sign up for a yoga teacher training, make sure to continue your practice so you can prepare physically. Most yoga school recommend at least 6 month yoga practice prior course start.
When you are ready for a new adventure, life-changing experience and heart-opening journey! If you enjoy yoga, want to dive deeper into it and turn your passion into a career or way of helping others, then you are ready for a yoga teacher training. There is no right moment to decide, just go for it if it’s been on your mind for some time and you really feel that your heart is telling you to do it. A yoga teacher training is suitable for everyone- literally everyone!
The answer is yes! It’s absolutely safe. Actually, 75% of all yoga students who come to India are actually female solo travellers. India is a very friendly, hospitable and compassionate country with kind-hearted and lovely people. You will be surprised how conscious, relaxed and helpful everyone is from showing you the way, carrying your bags, inviting you for chai and feeling proud that you visit India. At Gyan Yog Breath we encourage solo-travellers and support you on each step. From the first e-mail exchange, travel planning, airport pick up to drop off-off, we make sure that you feel comfortable, safe and understood. Our international team is reachable 24/7.
