The 200-hour certification splits into two phases: bi-weekly online calls before arrival, then 14 days of in-person practice and teaching methodology in Chiang Mai. Path of Yoga structures the in-person block around seven distinct styles — Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Yin, Restorative, Kundalini, and Tantra — a wider curriculum spread than most single-style 200-hour trainings cover in the same two weeks.
- Duration: 14 days
- Price from: $2,497
- Level: All levels
- Style: Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Yin, Restorative, Kundalini, Tantra
- Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
- Rating: 5/5 (198 reviews)
Accommodation is shared on-site, with all tuition, manuals, and course materials included alongside the certification itself. Daily yoga sessions and meditation practice run through the trip, with dedicated time set aside for studying key poses and practicing teaching delivery on fellow trainees. Yoga mats and props are provided, though the programme notes trainees may prefer bringing their own.
Watch out: fresh fruit, smoothies, and coconuts are sold separately rather than included in the three daily meals — a detail worth budgeting for on top of the listed price, since it’s itemised specifically in the exclusions rather than folded into the meal plan.
What extends past the 14 days on the ground: bi-weekly online calls before arrival, plus lifetime access to the course’s online material afterward. That’s a meaningful difference from a standalone in-person teacher training, where the learning stops once the flight home takes off. The certification itself is a 200-hour Level 1.
Insider Tip: the hybrid structure only pays off if the online portion gets done properly before arrival — trainees who arrive without completing the online prep compress two phases of learning into one, on top of an already dense 14-day schedule.
Airport transfers, visa fees, travel insurance, and any activities outside the core itinerary are excluded from the $2,497 price. Cancellation is free, and the rating sits at 5/5 across 198 reviews.
A few smaller inclusions round out the package: a Kriya Kit for the meditation component, and what the listing describes as a surprise gift from India — small touches that separate this from a purely transactional certification course. All-levels billing is genuine here, since the online phase gives newer practitioners a run-up before the in-person intensive begins, rather than dropping everyone into 14 days of daily practice cold. The shared accommodation model is standard for teacher trainings specifically, distinct from the private-room setup used on most other retreats in this collection, and reflects the cohort-based nature of a certification course.
