The Advanced Yoga Teacher Training Course or Level 2 TTC is meant for the Indea Yoga’s level 1 Hatha or Ashtanga Vinyasa Certified teachers. On completion of this course the teacher is provided with an RYT 500 certificate. While level 1 focuses on alignments and breath, this Advanced Yoga Teacher Training helps the teacher understand important aspects of yoga therapy and thereby uplifting their confidence. The teacher gains broader knowledge of body’s anatomy and possible limitations, injuries and health conditions and is able to design the proper sequence for each condition. This four week long course emphasizes on understanding the asana and pranayama techniques better and in a deeper way.
An introduction to hands-on adjustment will be included for the teacher to understand the best way of correcting their students while preserving their energy and to understand their needs and limitations. Bandhas, mudras, kriyas as well as meditation will be taught which differentiates it from level 1 Teacher Training Course.
One of the unique features of our Level 2 training is that we offer a complimentary, professionally-designed website to each graduate. This is an invaluable tool to help kickstart your teaching journey, allowing you to create an online presence, showcase your skills, and connect with potential students.
After the completion of the Advanced Teacher Training Course from Indea Yoga, the teacher will be eligible to enrol themselves for Shikshaka Sadhana (Level 3 Teacher Training Course).
Bharatha Yoga’s Primary series (for Ashtanga teachers) and Foundation series (for Hatha teachers) are practiced everyday. Each one is provided with an opportunity to lead the whole class through the sequence everyday.
Topics of bandhas, mudras and kriyas are discussed thoroughly. As opposed to the level 1 Teacher Training Course, the teachers are taught how to adjust students in every asana from the prescribed series, in the right manner.
All the Bharatha Yoga prescribed chants including Nirvanashatakam, Shanti mantras, Gayatri mantra and such, alongside bhajans are recited everyday as a part of the schedule.
Pranayama techniques are made more intense by the application of bandhas and mudras. The session also encourages a few minutes of guided meditation practices.
Kriyas such as jala neti, sutra neti, trataka and nauli are practiced everyday. And kriyas such as vamana dhouti and shankaprakshalana are introduced and given a chance to practice – one per week.
This module holds a lot of weightage. The teachers are made familiar with almost 20+ bodily ailments and ways to deal with them through yoga.
Patanjali Yoga Sutras – Vibhuti Pada (chapter 3), Kaivalya Pada (chapter 4) and Karma yoga Sloka Sangrahah (Bhagavad Gita) will be discussed along with basics of Chakras and Ayurvedic principles.

With programs like YTTC’s, Kramatvam, Laghutvam, and Arogyam, the shala offers a space for transformative practice at every stage of the journey. Students are invited to return — not just to form, but to source.
