ISHTA’s Yoga Alliance certified 200-Hour teacher training program is designed to deepen your understanding of the science of yoga. Whether you plan to make a career out of teaching yoga or are simply looking to enhance your own practice, this program teaches you how to bring yoga into daily life. This weekend training is split into three modules, as per the below - participants are welcome to sign up for individual modules or the full training!

Module 1

This module is a great introduction to the foundation of yoga postures (asana), alignment, breath work (pranayama), meditation, and tantric philosophy - all through the lens of the ISHTA individualized practice. You can join this module to start to build a foundation for your own practice, or to start your journey to becoming a teacher.

Module 2

Expand your understanding of standing poses and backbends. There is focus in this module on sequencing, as well as the art of teaching. You will have an introduction to the ancient life science of Ayurveda. There is also an exploration into the Yoga Sutras, along with a journey deeper into the art of swara yoga - which uses pranayama techniques to lead us into a state of meditation.

Module 3

This module will focus on inversions and seated postures, as well as the health benefits of meditation - and the life practices of yoga (lectures include the The Business of Yoga, Lifestyle of a Yogi). In this module you will also learn the art of deep relaxation in our Restorative Yoga specialty lecture/ practice, and how to adapt the ISHTA practice in our specialty Prenatal Lecture. You will also delve into further pranayama and meditation techniques.

What is ISHTA yoga?

ISHTA stands for Integrated Science of Hatha, Tantra, and Ayurveda, or a combination of physical, energetic, and healing practices. But ISHTA has a double meaning that stretches back to the very roots of yoga. ISHTA is also a Sanskrit word translating to “that which resonates with the individual spirit,” emphasizing the personal journey we encourage and guide our students to embrace.

What makes the ISHTA Yoga Teacher Training Program unique?

The lineage and teaching of ISHTA Yoga is a uniquely modern, individualized and integrated approach to the ancient science of yoga. While the body is studied and experienced in detail through in-depth daily practice, posture labs and studies of anatomy and asana, ISHTA provides a comprehensive foundation for all aspects of yoga, including thorough studies of the practice and teaching of subtle and causal body anatomies; pranayama and kriya; meditation; Tantric philosophy; and Ayurveda, the ancient Indian life science. The ISHTA-trained practitioner learns to teach safely, confidently, and compassionately to the individual. Our philosophy is to recognize the inherent strengths of each student and to enhance these strengths through personal practice.

Overview of what the three modules include

  • Postures
  • Sequencing
  • Anatomy
  • Yoga philosophy
  • Basic pranayama and meditation techniques
  • Kriya techniques
  • Tantra
  • Introduction to ayurveda and how to incorporate ayurveda in your yoga teachings
