Good to know
How physically demanding is the Hatha Yoga training?
Students usually study and practice for 5-7 hours a day as part of this rigorous and in-depth training. The pace is gradually sped up so that students can safely get stronger, more flexible, and able to last longer.
Are philosophy and yoga history included?
Yes. In addition to working out, students learn about yoga philosophy, the Eight Limbs of Yoga, traditional texts, and yogic lifestyle ideals to get a complete picture of the subject.
Are meals provided during the course?
Along with herbal teas and filtered water, most programs provide yoga vegetarian (sattvic) meals that are made to help with both physical practice and mental clarity.
Is accommodation and food provided?
Most residential programs in Varkala include private or shared accommodation and sattvic vegetarian meals designed to support intensive physical practice.
Will I learn alignment and adjustment techniques?
Yes. Students learn safe alignment principles, how to correct posture, how to make adjustments with their hands, and how to easily give verbal cues to other students.
Is Mysore-style practice included?
Many Ashtanga Vinyasa TTC programs include Mysore-style self-practice sessions, allowing students to memorize the sequence and build independence under teacher supervision.
How is a typical day structured during the training?
A typical day starts with meditation and breathing in the morning, followed by asana practice. In the afternoon, lessons cover anatomy, philosophy, and how to teach. In the evening, sessions are for rest and relaxation.
Will I learn proper alignment and adjustments?
Yes. The training goes over each posture in great depth and teaches safe alignment principles, the traditional counting method, hands-on adjustments, and ways to avoid getting hurt.
