Should You Should Become a Yoga Teacher?

What is the difference between a yoga teacher training at home and abroad?
Choosing to take a yoga teaching license abroad means that you are completely removed from your everyday life – giving you the opportunity to disconnect and be in tune with the present. Classes are smaller too, which allows for the teacher to give each student a significant amount of attention – ensuring that they are well supported in their training!
How do I choose the right yoga teacher training program?
It all depends on how long you can be away for and how many hours you are willing to dedicate to learning yoga. There are different lengths of yoga teacher training courses from 200-hour to 300-hour and finally 500-hour courses.
What is the best destination for a yoga teacher-training course?
Many students generally head to India to get certified as a yoga teacher primarily because the country is known to be the birthplace of yoga, offering some of the most authentic yoga experience in the world. Yoga teacher training in Costa Rica is also popular due to its amazing beaches and friendly locals, guaranteeing you a great experience!
Is teaching yoga for anybody?
The all-inclusive nature of yoga makes the practice accessible to anyone who is interested. You don’t have to be extremely fit or flexible to teach yoga. As long as you have the drive and intention, you will be able to teach successfully!

Discover your natural intuition as a yoga teacher and deepen your yoga practice on a yoga teacher training course. During your 100, 200, 300, or 500-hour YTT course, you'll not only work towards becoming a yoga instructor, but you'll also solidify and elevate your yoga practice and knowledge. Connect with yourself and understand the history and philosophy of yoga, while opening yourself to a world of new (career) possibilities. Popular destinations for yoga teacher training are Rishikesh in India, Ubud in Bali, Thailand, and Costa Rica.
Can you also partake in a Yoga Instructor Training even when you're not looking to become a yoga teacher?
Yes! The courses are also popular amongst yogis who want to deepen their practice, just for themselves. It's a great way to learn more about your own body, learn more about the background of yoga, and get to know other like-minded friends. Often, these training courses are done by couples as well, as they both follow the journey to get to know themselves and each other better.
What are the benefits of Online Yoga Teacher Training?
While the Online Yoga Teacher Training courses are popular for those looking for convenience, it also opens up possibilities for those who are not able to take longer periods of time off. Many online courses can be done at your own pace, allowing you to get a yoga teacher certificate over the course of longer periods, instead of a fixed duration or deadline.
The individual online courses are, however, may be less dynamic than teacher training on location, as you won't meet other practitioners in person, travel to a beautiful (new) destination, and get inspired by the people around you. The benefit of this is that the online yoga teacher training is often cheaper because there are no travel, food, and accommodation costs involved.
Why should you join a Yoga Teacher Training?
- Discover your natural intuition as a yoga teacher
- Deepen your yoga practice and learn more about your body
- Connect with yourself and understand the history and philosophy of yoga
- Open yourself to a world of new (career) possibilities
FAQ About Yoga Teacher Training
What can you expect from a Yoga Teacher Training?
Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) isn’t just about learning; it’s also a great chance to develop personal growth. You’ll explore yoga’s philosophy, anatomy, and techniques throughout the training while under the guidance of experienced instructors.
After completing a yoga teacher training course, you’ll receive a certification and be able to teach yoga professionally. Beyond the curriculum, it’s an opportunity to discover more about yourself, form genuine relationships with a supportive community, and potentially make a positive impact in your life and the lives of those you teach.
What is the difference between a yoga teacher training at home and abroad?
You get a sense of convenience and familiarity with a yoga teacher training at home, and it’d be easier to integrate it into your daily routine. Online yoga teacher training, for example, lets you reap the benefits of learning from home while having access to teachings from instructors globally.
On the flip side, when you join a yoga teacher training abroad, you’ll be immersed in new environments, diverse cultures and meet like-minded individuals from around the world.
