How long will it take to get qualified?

If you choose our 200-hour YTT course, you can get certified in three (3) months.
Our 50-hour YTT programme will help you get certified in just one month.

That’s not a barrier at all! Ohmayoga’s yoga instructor courses are designed for everyone – across all yoga levels – regardless of whether you've taught before or not, or are completely new to yoga.

What are the prerequisites for this programme?

None! These yoga training courses are great for novices and professionals alike. We only ask that you come with an open heart and mind.

Absolutely! Yoga is a transformational practice, and there're so many benefits to be had for your mental and physical well-being. 

Is there any post-training support available after the programme completion?

During and after the yoga certification programme, you’ll be a part of a global network of teachers, yogis, and students who'll form your support group from thereon.
