Advanced Yoga Teacher Training
by Samrat Dasgupta
1 Mar - 13 Sep, 2026
ABOUT THE TRAINING
This training course aims to deepen trainees’ practice and knowledge in different aspects of yogic disciplines, preparing them to embrace yoga as their lifelong profession. It will focus on further enhancing trainees’ understanding of yoga philosophy, mastering their yoga practice and stabilising the connection of the body with the mind and soul. It is this union with the mind that helps to identify one’s limitations and potentials, which is key to helping students delve into the world of teaching and giving.
Our unique training comprises multiple layers of learning that are weaved together into a customisable experience. We understand that each individual’s need, level and experience is different and this training emphasises each individual's personal practice as the source of their teaching. This is achieved by combining intensive study of the techniques and mechanics of fundamental postures, cultivating practical hands-on adjustments, deepening enquiry into yoga philosophy, exploring the principles of duality, delving into more advanced anatomy understanding, exploring values and beliefs of Ayurveda, and engaging in further spiritual development.
This will be a life-changing experience that emphasises the journey and evolution of an individual. Our yoga path is continuous and in order to transcend, trainees must engage in ongoing study by growing their own practice as well as inspiring others at the same time. This course will equip trainees with all the intellectual, mental and physical tools to glorify the teacher within themselves.
This training will nurture yoga teachers who have completed 200-hour foundational training to be better teachers by refreshing their teaching techniques and experiences for leading different types of classes catered for different body types through an anatomical and spiritual aspect. This will also be an opportunity for yoga teachers to consolidate and deepen their prior teaching experience with profound yoga knowledge.
