Find a yoga teacher training course

Yoga teacher training courses are aimed at practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of the discipline and acquire tools for teaching.

Each programme may have a different focus, so before choosing one it is worth reviewing its content, duration, methodology, teaching team, requirements and format.

On Yogagenda, you can view the details of each course and contact the school or organiser directly if you have any questions.

Training for yoga teachers and instructors

Schools frequently use the terms yoga teacher and yoga instructor to present teaching-focused programmes.

Beyond the name used, the important thing is to review the knowledge and skills that each training programme actually covers, how it is structured and the programme's specific conditions.

Always check the information provided by the school or organiser before registering.

Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) in Spain

Some schools use the term Yoga Teacher Training, or YTT, to refer to their yoga teacher training programmes, especially when they are also aimed at international students or deliver the training in English or in a bilingual format.

On Yogagenda, these programmes are included among yoga teacher training courses. Before choosing, it is worth checking the language of the training, its content, duration, format, teaching team and the qualifications or accreditations indicated by each school.

What does yoga teacher training include?

The content depends on each school and the focus of the training, but programmes may include areas such as:

  • yoga practice and technique;
  • teaching methodology;
  • anatomy and movement;
  • the philosophy and foundations of yoga;
  • planning and teaching classes;
  • teaching practice;
  • especializaciones o estilos concretos.

The presence and depth of each subject varies according to the programme.

200-, 300- and 500-hour training courses

It is common to find training courses organised according to their number of hours, especially programmes of 200 hours and longer follow-on pathways.

The number of hours is just one of the aspects worth considering. You should also review the programme content, the teaching team’s experience, their methodology and the qualifications or accreditations specified by each school.

  • whether it is in person, online or hybrid;
  • the dates and times;
  • the entry requirements;
  • the teaching practice included;
