100 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Kerala, Paravur
Build a steadier practice, step by step
Yoga here is approached as more than a sequence of poses: the 100-hour course pairs physical practice with meditation, study of yoga philosophy and cultural experiences. Run by Rishikul Yogshala in Varkala, it is a compact training for practitioners who want to give their own practice more structure and explore the foundations of teaching. The shorter format can suit someone beginning a longer yoga-training path, as well as a curious student not yet sure about teaching. Its focus spans body, mind and the ideas behind yoga, rather than stopping at asana. Varkala’s coastal setting adds a sense of place beyond the classroom, though the schedule and accommodation arrangements are worth confirming before booking. This is a paid course; contact the school for current fees, dates and what is included.
