Here, you will not just practice poses; you will sit under our banyan tree for daily philosophy sessions, study Sanskrit, and learn the anatomy behind every movement so you can guide students of all levels with confidence, not just by copying a chart. Our teacher training curriculum is designed to strip away the confusion of modern, performative yoga. During your 25-day residential stay in our Ramanagar ashram, the focus is on the integration of theory and practice. We divide your study into three pillars: * **The Roots:** We dive into the philosophical underpinnings, using Sanskrit not for show, but to understand the intention behind the practice. You will spend time in open-air satsangs, discussing how to take yoga off the mat and into daily life. * **The Mechanics:** Anatomy is taught with a focus on function, not just aesthetics. You will learn to use props, hands-on adjustments, and Hatha/Vinyasa sequences that are safe and adaptable for any body type. * **The Art of Teaching:** This is where you find your voice. Through practical workshops, you will learn to sequence classes, handle different energy levels in a room, and hold space for your students. This is not a retreat where you watch from the back of the room. You will be actively involved in the life of the ashram, including the mandatory karma yoga and communal meals. By the time you graduate, you will have the knowledge to teach, but more importantly, you will have the clarity to lead. ## About Soham Ayur Yoga Ashram I am Sri Soham, and I lead these trainings alongside Neelam Mangat. We run this ashram not as a school, but as a living space where we practice, eat, and grow together. We are here to help you peel back the layers and find the teacher within yourself.
