About this collection
This 300-hour program is structured over four months with weekend sessions, requiring a level of consistency that goes beyond physical fitness. You are signing up to learn the science of movement, functional anatomy, and the deeper philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita and Yoga Sutras. This is not just about earning a certificate; it is about unlearning habits, building real teaching confidence, and understanding the Guru-Shishya parampara through direct mentorship.
A 300-Hour Commitment
Our Teacher Training Course (TTC) in HSR Layout, Bengaluru, is designed for those who want to transition from a student to a practitioner and, eventually, a guide. The four-month duration allows for the gradual integration of knowledge—something that cannot happen in a condensed, one-week workshop.
What the Curriculum Covers
- Asana & Alignment: We go deep into Hatha and Vinyasa techniques, emphasizing hands-on adjustments. You will spend hours on your mat, but also hours learning how to use props to assist others safely.
- Philosophy & Wisdom: We do not just quote the texts; we study them. Expect detailed sessions on the Bhagavad Gita, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, and the Yamas and Niyamas.
- The Subtle Body: You will learn pranayama to control the life force, Japa meditation for focus, and Shatkriyas for internal purification.
- Teaching Methodology: We train you on voice modulation, class sequencing, and the ability to hold space for others. This is about building the confidence to lead, not just perform.
Certification & Support
The training is Yoga Alliance International accredited and aligns with Ministry of Ayush curriculum standards. Every student receives a kit including a Japa Mala, Neti pot, and training manuals. Beyond the mat, we include a 3-day nature retreat near Bangalore to break the monotony of the city and deepen your practice in stillness. Once you join Aikia, you are part of our family—meaning you have lifetime access to materials and ongoing mentorship long after the course ends.
Aikia Yogashala
We are Surya Krsna and Namita. We founded Aikia Yogashala to create a space where yoga is taught as a traditional discipline, not a trend. When you join our TTC, we do not just watch you move; we mentor you, push you to refine your practice, and help you find your own voice as a teacher.
