200-HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING
IN JAPAN & INDIA

DIVE INTO PRACTICE
TURN INWARD AND BUILD THE FOUNDATIONS OF EMBODIED TEACHING

YOGA ALLIANCE RYS 200 · TAUGHT IN ENGLISH · RESIDENTIAL TRAININGS

YOGART COLLECTIVE offers small-group, residential 200-hour yoga teacher trainings in Japan and South Goa, India. Taught in English and registered with Yoga Alliance, each programme is designed to deepen your personal practice, develop confident teaching skills, and build a lifelong relationship with yoga.

More than a professional certification, this RYT 200 programme is an immersive journey into movement, breath, meditation, philosophy, functional anatomy, teaching practice and self-inquiry. Traditional yoga is brought into conversation with modern therapeutic understanding and the Five Elements, helping you learn not only what to teach, but how to observe, adapt and respond to the individual.

The same educational philosophy is offered in two unique environments—the mountains of Japan and the beaches of South Goa, India—allowing you to choose the setting that best supports your journey.

THE CURRICULUM REMAINS THE SAME 

THE LANDSCAPE CHANGES 

OUR APPROACH 

Learning yoga requires more than knowledge of techniques and sequences. It develops our ability to observe, listen, adapt, and respond with intelligence and care.

Throughout this 200-hour foundational training, anatomy, philosophy, movement, breath, meditation, and teaching methodology are explored as parts of one interconnected system. Each supports the others, helping you understand what to teach, why it matters, and how to adapt it thoughtfully.

Personal practice and teaching develop alongside one another. As your understanding deepens, so does your ability to guide others with clarity, sensitivity, and confidence.

We see a 200-hour training as the beginning of a lifelong process of practice, observation, and learning. Our aim is to cultivate capable teachers and thoughtful practitioners who continue to question, explore, and evolve long after the training has ended.

WHAT YOU WILL EXPLORE

The curriculum develops your personal practice alongside the practical skills needed to teach with confidence, clarity, and sensitivity.

Throughout the training, you will explore movement, breath, meditation, philosophy, functional anatomy, and teaching methodology. These areas are woven together, allowing you to experience how each one informs and deepens the others.

 

The Five Elements provide a practical framework for exploring relationships within the body, breath, mind, everyday life, and the world around us. Combined with therapeutic principles and mindful observation, this approach helps you understand how to adapt yoga thoughtfully to each individual.

Teaching practice is woven throughout the course. Step by step, you will learn to observe more carefully, communicate clearly, sequence intelligently, and adapt practices for different bodies, ages, abilities, and intentions. You will also learn how to create classes that feel coherent, purposeful, and relevant to the people you teach.

Observation before instruction

Learn to observe with curiosity, allowing clear guidance to grow from what you see.

Integration over information

Explore how movement, anatomy, philosophy, breath, and meditation inform one another as parts of one interconnected practice.

Practice before performance

Ground your teaching in your own lived experience of yoga.

People before postures

Adapt yoga thoughtfully to each person—their body, needs, experience, and intentions.
