Feb 19

If you're considering a yoga teacher training program, Rishikesh, India, should be at the top of your list. Known as the "Yoga Capital of the World," it’s the perfect setting for new teachers to immerse themselves in yoga and discover the deep-rooted wisdom that will shape their teaching and practice. At Moola Yoga Rishikesh, we offer a unique 100-hour and 200-hour multi-style yoga teacher training program that combines the powerful, dynamic practice of Ashtanga Vinyasa every morning, and a blend of Hatha and Vinyasa yoga in the afternoons.

For new teachers, a multi-style approach to yoga teacher training is not only enriching but essential for laying a strong foundation to teach and inspire others. Here's why our program is ideal for new yoga teachers and how it will help you grow both on and off the mat.

1. Gain Versatility in Your Teaching Approach

As a new yoga teacher, versatility is key. When you graduate from a multi-style yoga teacher training, you won’t be limited to teaching just one type of class. At Moola Yoga Rishikesh, you’ll practice Ashtanga Vinyasa each morning, a structured sequence of poses that emphasizes discipline, breath, and strength. By learning Hatha yoga and Vinyasa yogain the afternoons, you'll broaden your scope of knowledge, giving you the ability to adapt to a variety of student needs and preferences.

Ashtanga Vinyasa offers a traditional, fixed sequence that teaches you alignment, breath control, and physical endurance. This style provides a steady framework, giving new teachers the ability to build strong sequences for students.
Hatha yoga focuses on alignment, breathing, and mindfulness. It allows you to explore the subtler aspects of yoga, such as grounding and relaxation, which can be extremely helpful in teaching students how to relax and deepen their practice.
Vinyasa yoga introduces flow and creativity. This style is great for building sequences that move with breath and focus on flexibility, helping you teach dynamic and engaging classes.

By gaining experience in multiple styles, you can create diverse class offerings that will appeal to a wider audience, providing you with the flexibility to teach classes to beginners, intermediate students, and advanced practitioners alike.

2. Build a Strong Foundation with Personalized Attention

New yoga teachers often face challenges when it comes to honing their teaching skills. A multi-style yoga teacher training allows you to explore different methods, teaching techniques, and philosophies—ensuring that you’re well-equipped to face these challenges head-on.

At Moola Yoga Rishikesh, our small class sizes ensure that you receive personalized attention from our experienced instructors. They’ll guide you through the core principles of Ashtanga Vinyasa, Hatha, and Vinyasa yoga, giving you the tools and confidence to lead your own classes. By offering a combination of structured learning and hands-on practice, you’ll have the opportunity to refine your teaching style and feel supported every step of the way.

Our program is specifically designed to meet you where you are, whether you're a beginner or have some experience. Our teachers will help you build a strong foundation in sequencing, alignment, and understanding the philosophy behind each style, so you can effectively teach a wide variety of students.

3. Develop Physical and Mental Strength to Lead with Confidence

As a new yoga teacher, one of the most important aspects of your training is building physical and mental resilience. A multi-style yoga teacher training like ours provides a well-rounded approach that focuses on strength, flexibility, endurance, and mental clarity. This holistic approach not only prepares you physically to demonstrate and assist students but also mentally to guide your class with confidence.

Ashtanga Vinyasa will push your limits, helping you build strength and stamina while learning to sync movement with breath. This mental and physical discipline is crucial when you are leading a class, as you’ll need to maintain focus and clarity while offering instructions.
Hatha and Vinyasa yoga help you balance the intensity of your morning practice, offering restorative and flowing movements that emphasize relaxation, connection, and fluidity. They create a space for you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself, strengthening your mental presence and mindfulness in your teaching.

With this solid foundation, you'll feel more confident in your ability to teach, inspire, and guide your students, knowing that you have the strength, clarity, and focus to lead a class with authenticity.

4. Learn to Teach Multiple Styles to Different Audiences

When you complete a multi-style training program, you will have the knowledge to teach various types of classes, whether your students are seeking relaxation, flow, or strength. As a new teacher, this flexibility is invaluable, especially when you start building your teaching schedule and attracting different types of students.

Ashtanga Vinyasa will prepare you to teach students who appreciate a structured, physically demanding practice. You'll be able to guide them through a disciplined sequence that improves endurance, strength, and focus.
Hatha yoga will enable you to teach slower, more methodical classes for students looking to improve their alignment, breathing, and overall well-being. These classes can be perfect for beginners or those seeking more grounding practices.
Vinyasa yoga will give you the skills to teach dynamic, breath-led classes for students who enjoy flowing movements, creativity, and freedom on the mat. These classes will help you cater to students who seek variety and excitement in their practice.

Being able to teach a range of yoga styles will not only make you a more versatile teacher, but it will also allow you to reach a wider audience.
