Transform Your Passion into a Profession with the Leading Yoga Alliance Registered School in India
Pure Soul Yoga School is itself a Yoga Alliance-registered school, which means our school is a trusted platform and all our training courses are internationally recognised. Below is an overview to help you understand the importance of being registered with Yoga Alliance.
What Is Yoga Alliance Registration?
Yoga Alliance is a globally recognised organisation that sets the standards for yoga teacher training courses. It provides a trusted framework for yoga professionals, enabling them to teach and train with confidence in various settings.
Through Yoga Alliance registration, yoga students are designated as Registered Yoga Teachers [RYT 200 and, after advanced training, RYT 500], whereas schools are recognised as Registered Yoga Schools [RYS]. This registration ensures that both teachers and schools maintain high-quality standards, enabling students worldwide to receive authentic, safe and professional yoga education.
To become a Registered Yoga Teacher [RYT], the minimum requirement is completing a 200-hour yoga teacher training course [Level 1].
You can advance your knowledge by enrolling in our 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Course (Level 2), available to students who have already completed a 200 Hour YTT. Upon completing both the 200-hour yoga teacher training course and the 300-hour yoga teacher training course in India, you become eligible to register as a registered yoga teacher [ RYT 500 ]with Yoga Alliance.
