About the 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program
"Flexible yoga teachers are easy to find. A meditative, authentic one is much harder to find." That belief, from our founder Yogini Manisha (E-RYT 500), shapes every day of this 23-day residential 200 hour yoga teacher training in Thailand. You live and train at Health Oasis Resort On Bang Por Beach, Koh Samui, and leave ready to teach with clarity, awareness and confidence.
Only 10 students join each batch. Your course is led by the Diksha Yoga School teaching team, following the approach Yogini Manisha has developed over 16+ years of teaching and guiding more than 23,000 students from 80+ countries. In a group this small, your teachers get to know your practice and give you personal feedback throughout.
Your days begin with pranayama close to the sea and move through practice, theory and teaching. You will study Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga foundations, Pranayama, Meditation, Yoga Philosophy, Anatomy, Alignment, Sequencing and Teaching Methodology. The training goes well beyond postures: you teach full classes, build your own sequences, refine your cueing, learn modifications for different students, and receive individual feedback on your teaching.
You graduate with a 200-hour certificate from a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS 200 & RYS 300), eligible for RYT 200 registration, and with the confidence to guide your first classes. Your beachfront room, two sattvic vegetarian meals a day, course manual and local excursions are included from €2,800. The next batch runs 5–27 November 2026 and takes 10 students only, so check the dates and reserve your place with a deposit.
More Than a Yoga Certificate
Most 200-hour trainings give you a certificate. Ours is built so you leave ready to teach. With no more than 10 students per batch, you practise teaching daily, receive personal feedback, and learn traditional yoga from teachers who know your practice.
Learn to Teach, Not Just Practise
Design sequences, teach your fellow students, give clear verbal cues, and receive constructive feedback on your teaching.
Never More Than 10 Students
Your teachers get to know your practice and give you direct, individual feedback throughout the training.
Our Founder's Method
A typical class begins with quiet observation of the breath and ends in stillness. In between, you work on alignment, stability, and the link between breath and movement, without rushing from one posture to the next. Yogini Manisha (E-RYT 500) developed this approach over 16+ years of guiding 23,000+ students and practitioners worldwide, and you will learn to bring it into your own classes.
Traditional Yoga Foundations
Study Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga foundations, Pranayama, Meditation, Yoga Philosophy, Anatomy, and Alignment through structured classes and daily practice.
23 Days on Koh Samui
Live and train at Health Oasis Resort, near the quiet shores of Bang Por Beach, for 23 days and 22 nights. Your days centre on practice, breathwork, meditation, philosophy, and teaching workshops, with time to rest, study, and eat at the resort's vegetarian and vegan restaurant.
Yoga Alliance Registered School
Follow a structured 200-hour curriculum at a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS 200 & RYS 300) and graduate eligible to register as an RYT 200.
Yogini Manisha — Founder & Yoga Teacher Educator
Yogini Manisha founded Diksha Yoga School on one belief: a good yoga teacher is meditative and authentic, not just flexible. Over more than 16 years she has taught, trained and mentored over 23,000 students from more than 80 countries. She holds E-RYT 500, Yoga Alliance's most senior teacher designation, and is a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP). She has also completed three 200-hour and two 300-hour teacher trainings herself, so she knows this course from the student's mat as well as the teacher's. Her approach combines traditional yogic wisdom with practical teaching methods, with an emphasis on awareness, alignment, breath and energy. In Koh Samui, your 200-hour training is led by her teaching team, who bring that same approach to every class. With only 10 students per batch, you get direct guidance and personal feedback throughout the course.

Link breath with movement and learn to design balanced, purposeful sequences, so you can build a Vinyasa flow class for students at different levels.
Ashtanga Foundations
Learn the core principles and traditional sequencing of Ashtanga, and build the strength and discipline that come from a steady daily practice.
Pranayama & Shatkarma

Meditation
Train concentration and inner awareness through traditional and guided meditation, and go home with a practice you can keep for life.
