We ensure you leave the shores of Goa ready to guide others with genuine yogic wisdom.
This curriculum is designed to move you past the fundamentals and into a space where you can truly master the science of yoga.

General FAQ for Students understanding
We use tools like bricks, belts and blankets to help make yoga accessible to all. Following the path of B.K.S. Iyengar, we focus on the fine lines of alignment to make yoga reachable for every body type. This form of yoga aligns the physical, intellectual, mental, and spiritual bodies together. As per guru B.K.S Iyengar, each asana/pose has an optimum line without any deviation. From the foot to the head, from the front to the back, and from the left to the right.
We use the vibrations of specific instruments and tones to create a therapeutic space that settles the nervous system. These sounds help the brain reach deeper theta and delta states. These are essential for emotional release and deep rest. With the sound waves rolling in the background, we help your nervous system let go of built-up stress. It is a meditative practice that restores balance to both the mind and body through the simple power of resonance.
To practice yoga is to seek union. Here at Rishikul Yogshala Goa, we use it as a holistic tool to relieve disorders and restore balance. We combine traditional asana, pranayama, and meditation with modern science. Our approach is made to support individual health needs. It is a holistic way of looking at wellness. You learn how to help others find relief and balance. We use the mat as a dedicated space for genuine physical and mental recovery.
Teaching is both a science and an art. It requires clear communication and awareness. You will learn the logical side of things. These are things like sequencing and rhythm. You will also learn the subtle skills needed to manage different class sizes and age variations. Learning to lead a class needs both logic in understanding the sequence and a subtle feeling of experiencing the flow and depth of the students. We show you the mechanics of building a sequence while helping you develop the heart to connect with a room full of people. This is a hands-on space where you find your confidence and authentic voice to share with the world.
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is absolutely nothing at all. Restorative yoga is just that. This practice is about slowing down and releasing tension with almost no muscular effort. We do this by holding passive stretches for longer periods with the help of bolsters, blocks, belts and blankets. You allow your body to open up naturally. It is a deeply meditative way to calm the nervous system. We allow the muscles to relax and the breath to slow down. It is a restorative pause that calms the nerves and brings your whole being back.
We have designed the rhythm of your days in Goa to be as nourishing as the practice itself. Our teachers have put a lot of heart into crafting a 300-hour schedule. This schedule fuels your dedication without ever feeling like a rush. It is a thoughtful balance between immersive study and the "breathing room" you need to let those lessons really land.
