Yin Yoga Teacher Training Course Rishikesh

Yin Yoga blends the ancient Indian pathways of Hatha Yoga with the energetic insights of Taoist practice, supported by modern anatomical science and traditional meridian maps. While active styles focus on muscular strength, Yin honors the quiet and reflective side of yoga. Floor-based postures are held in functional stillness for three to five minutes to reach the fascia, ligaments, tendons and bone structures.

Completing this comprehensive 200-hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training Course equips you with technical knowledge, anatomical understanding and practical cueing skills. You will learn to guide classes that support physical decompression, emotional self-healing and balance in a fast-paced world.

Why Sri Yoga Ashram Stands Out

Sri Yoga Ashram shares authentic yogic values, structural alignment and philosophical pathways through dedicated teaching methods. Our scientifically structured curriculum is valued by graduates from around the world who study with compassionate, traditionally trained teachers.

Small groups allow personalized attention for your alignment, anatomical structure and energetic development. The ashram is located in a green pocket of Laxman Jhula near the River Ganga, with peaceful views from the accommodation and yoga shalas.

A light meditation or gentle stretching habit before arriving in Rishikesh is recommended.

All instruction is delivered in English, so basic conversational understanding is required.

Yin practice is quiet and floor based. These are real classes in our shala at Sri Yoga Ashram.

Around Rishikesh

Sunday Trips with Sri Yoga Ashram

Four places we visit with students on Sundays, from a Himalayan meditation cave to the evening Ganga Aarti on the riverbank.

Sunday Trip of Vasishtha Cave Trip 1

Vasishtha Cave

Enjoy a serene Sunday morning as you take a tranquil trip to the mystical Vasishtha Cave in Rishikesh. You will journey along the Ganges, the cool breeze carrying the scent of blooming flowers. As you arrive at the ancient cave, chirping birds and rustling leaves welcome you. Inside the cave, the atmosphere is meditative, the dim light casting gentle shadows on the stone walls.

Kunjapuri Temple Trip 2

Kunjapuri Temple

Kunjapuri Temple, one of the Shaktipeeths in Garhwal Himalayas, is a must-visit sacred place near Rishikesh. It offers a beautiful sunrise view. Located at an altitude of 1600 mts, it is around an hour; 28 km, upward journey from Laxmanjhula. The downward journey consumes around 40-45 minutes. As you climb the steps to the temple, the panoramic view of the Himalayan peaks and the flowing Ganges below takes your breath away.

Ganga Aarti Trip 3

Ganga Aarti

Envision a tranquil Sunday evening as you join Sri Yoga Ashram for the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti in Rishikesh. As the sun sets, casting a golden hue over the sacred river, you arrive at the bustling ghats, where devotees gather in anticipation. The air is filled with the soothing sounds of chanting and the gentle ringing of bells. The fragrance of incense mingles with the cool evening breeze.

Nature Walk Trip 4

Nature Walk

Explore the serene beauty of lush green forests, listen to the soothing sounds of chirping birds, and enjoy the fresh mountain air. This guided walk is perfect for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful escape.

Yes, absolutely. You do not need prior teaching experience or an advanced physical practice to join.

  • Private or twin-share accommodation with attached bathroom and backup power
  • 3 freshly prepared Sattvic vegetarian meals daily plus herbal teas

  • Official Yoga Alliance certification upon graduation
The comprehensive curriculum covers:
  • Yin Asanas & Alignment: Safe entry, hold times, and variations using props.

  • Meridian Theory & TCM: How Yin poses stimulate Chinese Medicine energy lines
  • Breathwork & Meditation: Pranayama, Yoga Nidra, and mantra chanting
  • Teaching Methodology: How to design, sequence, and instruct safe Yin classes.

I followed the online Yin Yoga program with Arpit, and I couldn't be more grateful! The one-to-one transmission is certainly a way to access a more direct, deeper, and more personalized learning experience. Yoga trainings can sometimes lose sight of the particularities and needs of each individual path. Thank you for returning to the roots of yoga including patience, deep listening, respect for the student's practice … and inspiring me far beyond the physical practice🙏 See you soon!!

I've been in SriYoga Ashram twice. The first time was for a 300-hour Teacher Training Course (TTC) in Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga taught in Spanish, and the second time was for a 200-hour TTC in Hatha and Kundalini Yoga and Yin Yoga taught in English. Both experiences were wonderful. The quality and kindness of the teachers, the excellent location of the Ashram, and the opportunity to connect with people from all over the world made both trainings even more valuable. If you truly want to deepen your knowledge and experience yoga every day in a place that feels more like home amidst so many schools focused on selling certifications, this is the right place. You'll be minutes from the Ganges, immersed in nature, yet close to the daily activities of Rishikesh. You'll be able to experience Aarti, go on excursions, and have profound spiritual experiences that will enrich and make your time there unforgettable.

Namaste... Much more than a school... I found a family and friends!! I spent three months at Sri Yoga Ashram: one 200-hour YTTC (Kundalini Yoga) teacher training, two 300-hour YTTC trainings, Ashtanga Yoga with Pradeep Ji, Yin Yoga with Arpit Ji, Reiki with Ankur Ji, and a two-month Vedic Astrology course with Dr. Gaurav Ji. All the teachers are excellent: experienced, very professional, and their teachings respect the Vedic tradition. They are also friendly, very attentive, and caring, with great humility. I learned so much from these teachings, and I am very grateful to them all!! The overall atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with small groups, and the rapport among the students was wonderful; everyone was kind to one another. The school's location is ideal: peaceful, with the forest, the main street, and the beautiful Ganges River nearby. The rooms are comfortable, and the food is excellent, lovingly prepared by Chef Deepu Ji. The headmaster, Pradeep Ji, is always attentive to every student's needs 🙏 A life experience I will never forget! I highly recommend it! Valérie
