27 Day 200-hour Body-Mind-Energy: Yoga Teacher Training in Nashik City, India with Reiki Healing

Certification

Students who complete the training are eligible to register with Yoga Alliance as Registered Yoga Teachers (RYT®).

Graduates will receive a 200-hour Yoga Alliance certification, qualifying them to teach yoga worldwide, as well as Reiki Level 1 and Level 2 certification.

Yoga as awareness and healing

In this training, yoga is approached as a process of listening to the body, the breath, the movement of energy, and the inner state as one living system. Practice will be held in a supportive and focused atmosphere that encourages presence, sensitivity, and honest engagement.

Sessions are dynamic and varied, allowing you to explore how physical experience, emotional tone, mental patterns, and energetic flow influence one another. As the training unfolds, clarity, steadiness, and inner attunement will develop gradually, alongside a deeper sense of vitality and direction.

Healing is not approached through force or striving. It grows through consistent presence and careful attention, and continues beyond the training and into daily life. From this foundation, teaching arises naturally from direct experience and deep listening, allowing yoga to be shared in a grounded and authentic way.

The training will take place at a traditional yogic ashram in nature, where daily rhythm, simplicity, and shared practice will support integration and depth.

Who this training speaks to:

This training is for people drawn to a deeper way of practicing yoga, one that values awareness, sensitivity, and real inner engagement. It speaks to those who want their practice to support clarity, healing, and meaningful change in daily life.

Some participants come with the intention to teach. Others come to deepen their own path. Many find that these two naturally meet during the training, as personal practice matures into the ability to guide others with presence and care.

The training is also suited for those looking for a supportive community where practice can deepen, energy can open, and life can feel more awake, both on and off the mat. Vagabond Temple's courses are open to all levels. Many participants, including those with previous trainings, are drawn to them for an approach that offers depth and insight that they have not found elsewhere.

Why this training is different: A way of practicing and living yoga

Listening as the core of practice

The training is rooted in listening to the body, the mind, and the energy as one living system. From this quality of attention, healing and conscious growth arise naturally.

Being yoga

Physical practice is present and challenging, guided by awareness, clear instructions, and precise adjustments. Yoga is lived from a deeper level of being, not only performed on the mat.

Depth with personal attention in a compassionate space

Students often encounter a depth they did not expect, supported by close guidance and a non-judgmental community. Exploration, challenge, and growth are encouraged without pressure or comparison.

Simple yogic living in nature

Held in a simple ashram setting, the training will support yogic living beyond formal practice. Daily rhythm, shared responsibility, and time in nature will become part of the learning and support integration.

What you will study and practice

An integrated path of practice, healing, and teaching

The curriculum brings together physical practice, energy work, healing, meditation, and theory into one coherent process. Each element supports the others, allowing understanding, sensitivity, and teaching capacity to develop side by side.

Body, alignment, and energy

Practice combines Hatha yoga, Kundalini yoga, and pranayama. Hatha yoga emphasizes clear alignment, precise instruction, and thoughtful adjustments, exploring the balance between ease and effort as a foundation for stability and healing. Kundalini yoga and breathwork support vitality, energy flow, and inner sensitivity.

Healing, Reiki, and holding space

Yoga Therapy, somatic work, and Reiki are taught as one integrated field. Reiki is approached as an awareness-based healing practice, where healing unfolds through presence, listening, and sensitivity. The training supports both self-healing and the ability to hold space for others in a grounded and compassionate way, and includes Reiki Level 1 and Level 2 certification.

Meditation

Meditation is practiced through Buddhist meditation, mantra, visualization, guided awareness, and active meditation. The focus will be on cultivating clarity, steadiness, and insight, supporting a calmer and more spacious inner life.

Teaching skills

Teaching is developed gradually and practically. Participants will work with sequencing, alignment cues, modifications, and guided meditations, while learning how to hold space with presence and confidence. Teaching practice and theory assignments will support integration and embodied understanding.

Insightful talks and theory

These sessions will explore yogic wisdom and Eastern philosophy as living teachings rather than abstract ideas. They will offer a wider perspective on practice, helping students understand why they practice, how different approaches work, and how to orient themselves on a longer spiritual path.

Topics will include:

• Body, mind, and energy as one system, drawing from yogic philosophy, energetic anatomy, and Buddhist psychology
• How mental patterns, emotional states, and energetic flow shape inner experience
• Understanding healing, stability, and clarity from both experiential and conceptual perspectives
• The relationship between practice and daily life, including ethical clarity, responsibility, and conscious living

Living practice beyond the mat

The teachings will always be connected back to daily life, supporting mindful living, ethical clarity, and alignment between values, actions, and inner awareness.
