300 HR YTT


Deepen Your Practice & Share the Gift of Yoga
300 Hr Yoga Teacher Training
“It is easy to find self-proclaimed teachers. But it is hard to find a genuine student. A true teacher is grateful to be a student – forever.” – Vedaji

The journey to the heart goes as deep as the seeker’s desire. To facilitate deeper self-growth and learning, Vedaji and his students have created a 300 hour program in the heart of yogic traditions – Rishikesh, India. If the 200 hour YTT was a beginner’s tour in the landscape of yoga, the 300 hour YTT invites you to do a “Master’s degree”, specializing in areas that pull your heartstrings with more vitality.
Immerse yourself in the study of the physical, energetic and spiritual aspects of yoga – in a much more thorough way. Vedaji’s 300 hour training allows you to create a colorful palette of compulsory offerings and specialized electives over the span of 1 month. Elective cohorts will allow deeper introspection, discussion & activity-based engagements and are purposefully smaller than mandatory offerings.
Provided that you have completed all assignments and attendance hours, upon graduation, you will receive a 300 hour yoga teacher training certificate in a beautiful ceremony in Rishikesh from Vedaji. Students can eventually register as a RYT 300 (or RYT 500 in case one has gone through their RYT 200 with Vedaji) via Yoga Alliance.

A Word of Advice:
- This program is for sincere seekers, not a tourist package for vacationers. We will not be engaged in sightseeing or frivolous activity during the training.
- The best candidates for the program are those who have attended Vedaji’s Bhakti Sandesh and Bhakti Pravesh courses. Doing the 200 hour YTT with Vedaji is a recommended prerequisite. Doing a 200 hour YTT (even if with another studio) before taking on this training is a mandatory prerequisite.
- Space is limited in our yoga teacher training. The 300 hour YTT with Vedaji is only held once annually. Please consider your ability to commit to such a program in terms of time (study, travel & practice), finances and energy.
- To support our ethos of non-cruelty and discipline-enriched freedom, we ask participants to not consume meat/fish/eggs, alcohol, recreational drugs, cigarettes/vapes and other known intoxicants during the course of the training. We offer much healthier Ayurvedic cuisines to nourish your body, and higher pleasures through vitalizing practices so that you do not feel the intensity of restriction. But if you feel unprepared to deal with the symptoms of withdrawal, we suggest you seek a registered therapist or doctor instead.
- Your physical and mental health will be tested during this program. If you are struggling to sustain them, you should first consider getting medical attention. The program can only support you to the ability your body and mind are supportive of you. We will ask for your medical reports at the interview stage.
