Across our teacher trainings, the different layers of yoga are taught in conversation with one another.

Anatomy shapes the way we understand movement and sequencing. Pranayama deepens our relationship with breath and presence. Philosophy gives context to the practice, while teaching methodology brings these elements together into classes that are thoughtful, embodied and purposeful.

Whether through a foundational 200hr, the deeper exploration of Yin Resonance®, or our advanced trainings, the intention remains the same: to support teachers in developing both the knowledge and the confidence to teach from a place of understanding.

Hands-on assists are one of the more nuanced skills we teach in our Yoga Teacher Trainings.
At Shri Gaia, touch is taught through anatomy, biomechanics, observation, communication and consent. A thoughtful assist begins with seeing the person in front of you and understanding what kind of support could bring greater clarity to their movement.
The hands become an extension of the teacher’s awareness.
This is how we approach teaching methodology: with knowledge, sensitivity and respect for each student’s individual body and experience.

Outside the training hours, there is time to experience Lamu, its living Swahili culture, historic old town, beaches, dhow boats and the Indian Ocean.

200HR Yoga Teacher Training · Sri Lanka 2027 🌴

Out 200hour YTT is designed to build a strong foundation in both the practice and teaching of yoga.

Over the course of the training, we move progressively through asana, functional anatomy and biomechanics, alignment, sequencing, pranayama, meditation, yoga philosophy and teaching methodology; connecting each element together.

You’ll learn how to understand the body, structure and sequence a class, communicate clearly as a teacher, adapt the practice to different students, and develop the skills and confidence to begin teaching.

Our upcoming 200HR trainings in Sri Lanka:

📅 January 3–17, 2027
📅 March 5–19, 2027
📅 March 26–April 9, 2027

📍 Talalla, Sri Lanka

Applications are open.

Our next 200hr Hatha Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training lands in Lamu, Kenya. 🌿 from 10 to 24 November 2026.

Why Lamu?

At Shri Gaia, the place we choose for our trainings matters. We look for locations where the land, culture, community, and natural surroundings can become part of the learning experience.

Lamu offers exactly that. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, a living Swahili culture, a deep connection to the ocean, and a slower rhythm of life that creates space to learn, practice, connect, and be fully present.

Two spots are still available. Learn more and apply through the link in bio.

What does it mean to live in alignment with your Dharma?
Dharma is often translated as purpose, but that undersells it. In the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, Dharma is purpose bound to duty, the specific way your nature is meant to serve something beyond yourself. It is not only what fulfills you, but it is also what you are called to give.
That calling may not stay fixed throughoutour life. A teenager may live it through curiosity. A parent through responsibility. Later in life, it often turns toward wisdom, toward what you leave behind for others to carry.
The five paths of yoga each open a different door to this same alignment: stillness through Raja, service through Karma, devotion through Bhakti, inquiry through Jnana, and embodiment through Hatha.
Through practice, self-reflection, and mindful action, you begin to recognize your nature, your responsibilities, and the ways you are called to contribute.

Yin Resonance® Yoga Teacher Training, Paleochora, Crete 🇬🇷
Two weeks ago, this training came to a close, and we're still feeling the resonance.
Yin Resonance® is a unique meeting of Yin Yoga and Sound Healing, woven through Nada Yoga, humming and toning, Mantra, the Six Healing Sounds of Taoism, and sound healing instruments. It's a training that asks you to slow down, drop into stillness, and tune into the resonance between Yin Yoga and sound itself.

This group showed up fully for that process, and Paleochora's coastline gave us the perfect container for it.

Our next Yin Resonance® YTT takes you to another gorgeous location: Talalla, Sri Lanka, February 18–28.
