Arya Yog Peeth Courses

Our 200 Hours Hatha Vinyasa Yoga Teachers Training Program is certified and recognized worldwide through Yoga Alliance USA. For years, our Academy's vision is to offer Yoga and Meditation Programs that help to transform the consciousness and help the people live a spiritually fulfilling life based in genuine inner experience and knowledge. The objective of the TTC Course is to provide beginners and experienced Yoga students with strong technical and theoretical experience. Hatha Vinyasa styles will be covered, along with Yogic Philosophy, Anatomy and Physiology, and more. Introductions to Ayurveda and Tantric Cleansing Practices complement the course. The course will equip the future teachers to be completely autonomous and ready to run their own yoga classes at the highest standards. At Arya Yog Peeth, students can easily learn a unique combination of different Yoga principles. We practice safe, proper, injury free yoga for all ages and genders. Every morning will start with Pranayama classes focused on different breathing techniques, which provides a good foundation for the Hatha Vinyasa flow classes afterward. Throughout the day, we will cover a comprehensive course schedule. In the evenings, we will end in meditation on the Ganga River. Initially the classes are all led by the senior teacher and later on the students learn to teach each other in small groups with instruction and adjustment from the teachers.

Our 200-Hour Kriya Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh is a Yoga Alliance certified program for practitioners ready to move beyond physical asana into the meditative heart of yoga. Kriya Yoga is one of the most powerful and time-tested systems of inner transformation — a precise sequence of pranayama (breath), mudra (gesture), bandha (energy lock) and dhyana (meditation) techniques designed to purify the nervous system, awaken subtle energy, and lead the practitioner toward deep states of meditative absorption. Held on the banks of the Ganga in Ram Jhula, Rishikesh, this 28-day immersion is taught in the authentic tradition we have received through our guru lineage — passed down from Swami Sivananda to Swami Satyananda Saraswati and the Bihar School of Yoga. This is Kriya Yoga as a complete sadhana, not a watered-down weekend workshop. Students learn not only to practice the kriyas correctly and safely, but to understand the philosophy and energetics behind them deeply enough to guide others with confidence. A note on Kriya versus Kundalini: students often confuse the two. Kundalini Yoga, as widely taught in the West, is a dynamic style with repetitive movement, breath of fire and chanting. Kriya Yoga, by contrast, is quieter and internal — a systematic set of meditative techniques that work directly with prana and the chakras to still the mind. This training is grounded firmly in the classical, meditative Kriya tradition. Because Kriya Yoga is an advanced practice, we keep batches to a maximum of 10 students, ensuring the close personal mentorship these subtle techniques require. The course is ideal for yoga teachers, serious practitioners, and anyone with a steady existing practice who wishes to deepen their meditation, refine their pranayama, and teach from genuine inner experience.
