Program Highlights
We designed this 200 h Yoga Teacher training with a strong foundation in traditional Hatha Yoga, the asana based practice all other physical styles are developed from.
Apart from that we are going to explore Vinyasa flow and Hatha Flow.
To understand Yoga you have to know where this ancient science has its roots and how it developed. We want you to learn that Yoga asana is only one part of the Yoga system and how you can implement the basic yogic principles into your daily life. We will introduce you to the Sanskrit language, take you to back to the origins of Yoga, make our way through its history and discover how it found its way to the west. We will clear up misconceptions about Yoga and cover important Yoga scriptures to help you understand the ancient teachings and their relevance today.
Every day you will get the chance to deepen your own asana practice by practicing different styles of Yoga asana. We encourage you to cultivate a regular self-practice, as this will be the foundation of all your teachings in the future. Let it be your source of energy and inspiration to thrive.
In the asana alignment classes we will break down the single postures and you will learn
- The right alignment
- Benefits and precautions
- Usage of Yoga props
- Verbal cues
- Hands-on adjustment
Apart from Yoga asana you will practice different breathing techniques in this 200 h Yoga teacher training in Greece and experience the power of breath expansion – pranayama.
As well as our Pranayama module the meditation module consists of theory and practice. You will learn the 12 steps of meditation, the ideal time and place is to practice, basic techniques of meditation, benefits and mindfulness.
To proceed further on you spiritual path we will chant different mantras together every evening. In this 200 h Yoga training you will get the time to practice and we will repeat the mantras together so that they can settle and the vibrations can unfold their potential.
It is important for you to know how asanas, pranayama and meditation affect the physical body. In our anatomy and physiology classes we give you an introduction into how the human body is build and how it functions. We will start with the structural design of the human body and then dive deeper into topics like the musculoskeletal system, back and spine anatomy and the importance of the core for you asana practice and in your everyday life.
Every morning we will purify our bodies and prepare them for a successful Yoga practice with different Shatkarmas – yogic purification techniques.
And of course, it would not be a Yoga teacher training without learning how to actually teach a Yoga class. We will teach you can prepare yourself for the classes, how to teach a balanced Yoga class and how to sequence your asanas. You will learn

What Our Customer Say About Us
The classes were rigorously structured, combining traditional and modern understandings of yoga and not just focusing on the asanas. This enabled a deeper understanding of practice and aided in our own personal journey and growth throughout the three weeks.
Our teachers were of the highest standard I have experienced, they really knew their stuff! They allowed time for open and honest conversations. Emotionally they were very supportive, always in contact whenever we needed them. Always with a smile on their faces and getting to understand us as individuals.
All the classes were accessible for all levels, I would highly recommended this yoga school to everyone wishing to broaden their understanding of Yoga in its entirety.

Authentic, humble honest. I did have the best experience here with such safe and comforting teachers. The groups are small the lessons are full with valuable information.
Yoga Philosophy being thought by Sandeep, a native indian who grew up with yoga since he is a child and lives it with his whole heart is such a special, unique and most important authentic and honest experience which is hard to find in any other schools around Bali.
Katharina is also a wonderful devoted teacher and it is nice to see this balance of both it helps to understand.
I wouldn‘t go to any other school and I would love to join many more of Anandam Yoga School courses.
Thank you very much🙏

Anandam yoga school is amazing!!! I learned so much from them. Ankur was an incredible teacher and was very knowledgeable in all aspects of yoga, asanas, pranayama, hatha, vinyasa, etc.
I absolutely loved this authentic yoga teacher training. I wanted to learn yoga from someone who knew the roots of yoga from India and Ankur taught that and more!
I feel like I gained an even deeper love and appreciation for yoga through this experience which I didn’t even know was possible.
They pushed me to be the best that I could be and I will always be grateful for that. The course taught me a lot and I am looking forward to teaching in my community back home!!
I would absolutely recommend Anandam Yoga School. They have a wonderful environment centered on learning and growing!

I just finished my 200h Yoga teacher training with Anandam Yoga School and I couldn't be happier.
It was such a nice and meaningful experience for me. I learned so much about Yoga in these three weeks.Katharina, Sandeep and Ankur are amazing teachers and it felt like a family to spent time with them and the other students. Their knowledge about philosophy, anatomy, asanas and also ayurveda and pranayama and meditation is impressive!
I enjoyed every day of the training so much and I am so thankful I found Anandam Yoga School to do it there.
I would definitely recommend to do the Yoga teacher trainig here and to experience this wonderful journey with Anandam.
Thank you so much Katharina, Sandeep and Ankur🤍

I chose to take my 200h YTT on Bali with Anandam Yoga School as it was of utmost importance to me to learn about the foundations of Yoga from an Indian guide with a deep connection to the practice & its tradition in India, while having local rooting in Bali.
Sandeep, Katharina & Kadek imparted a well of knowledge about Yoga asana practice as well as anatomy, yoga philosophy, the history of yoga, pranayama, meditation, shatkarma (cleansing rituals), equity, cultural appropriation, and much more, for us students (and future teachers) to build on for a lifetime to come, knowing that we'll be able to honour the roots of Yoga in India as most of us return to share our practice in Western societies.
I am also deeply grateful for the care & support that Katharina & Sandeep provided to us throughout the journey, from travel logistics to a broad variety of recommendations (restaurants, clinics, visa agents, etc.) on anything we might need.

I just finished my 300hr yoga teacher training with them. I am their return student as I also did my 200 hour ytt with them.
The experience with them are pleasant. I’ve learnt a lot from them, from asanas, alignments, philosophy, pranayama, and the Hindu tradition. I’ve grown so much after the training, feeling more confident in teaching yoga.
Ashtanga yoga was demanding and it’s great to have mysore style every morning with Sandeep as an instructor. He would challenge you and push you above your limits.
Arm balancing classes are fun and I have developed so much strength compared to when I first started the training.
Both Katharina and Sandeep have beautiful and kind souls. They are always there for you and back you up whenever you need them.
After 500 ++ hours we spent together we have developed a stronger bond as good friends! I would really recommend them if you are looking for yoga teacher training courses!!

Posted on eva hlavova2025-09-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did my 200YTT with Anandam Yoga School in August in Bali and it was an exceptional experience. Navin and Ming guided us through the course and shared their valuable yoga experience and knowledge with us. Katharina’s anatomy classes perfectly linked the facts to the yoga practice. She also provided a detailed and very well- structured course manual which I still keep consulting. I enjoyed the course very much, could improve my own practice, deepen my knowledge and prepare myself for a step forward to become a yoga teacher. I am thinking of doing some other training courses with Anadam Yoga School in the future. Thank you, Anandam Yoga School team:-)Posted on Divya ramburn2025-08-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I completed my 200h YTT in 2025, and it was truly a transformative experience. While the classes sometimes felt overwhelming, everything gradually fell into place, and the journey continues well beyond the training itself. A heartfelt thank you to the teachers who made this possible: ✨ Navin, for teaching from his heart, his ability to break down asanas and provide encouragement when it got tough. ✨ Katharina and Bhavna, for making anatomy classes engaging and accessible. The training was more than getting stronger physically - it was wholesome and encouraged self-discovery and inner growth.Posted on Suzanne Timmermans2025-08-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an incredibly beautiful week at Heimbach in Germany while taking part in the Yoga Nidra Teacher Training. Sandeep and Katharina are very good and really nice teachers with a lot of knowledge of and experience with authentic yoga. I am happy that they shared this with me and I feel that this made me grow in my yoga path. This, added to the positive atmosphere they created during the training, made this week an unforgettable experience!Posted on yoga meedoen2025-08-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful week of yoga Nidra teacher training at Heimbach in Germany. Beautiful location located in the green hills of the Eifel. Learning from Sandeep and Katharina was very precious, they have so much knowledge about and experience with what true yoga is. And they create such a nice athmosphere with their beautiful personalities as well! I had an amazing week!Posted on Sophie Platzer2025-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. J’ai suivi en avril 2025 la formation de 200 heures avec Navin, Ming et Katerina et j’en ai eu une expérience très positive. Les cours de yoga de Navin et Ming m’ont aidé à progresser dans les postures. Merci à Katherina pour ses cours d’anatomie compréhensibles pour des élèves dont l’anglais n’est pas la langue maternelle. Je ne peux que recommander cette formation pour toute personne qui souhaite approfondir ses connaissances sur le yoga dans le but ou pas de l’enseigner.Posted on Corin Seah2025-04-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the most wonderful experience with Anandam Yoga School! I enrolled myself for the 200hours yoga teacher training course in April 2025 and it was the most transformative experience I had so far. Navin and Ming gave us alot of guidance in asanas practices and the long history of yoga. Also Katharina provided us with an in-depth knowledge about human anatomy. I will definitely enrol myself with Anandam yoga school in the future to enrich myself!Posted on Emma Lemaitre2025-04-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. J’ai réalisé le 200h YTT avec Anandam à Bali. L’expérience était extraordinaire et très enrichissante. Les profs sont supers. Au-delà de la formation, j’ai beaucoup appris sur moi même, pris confiance en moi et en mes capacités. Je pense faire le 300h YTT également avec cet organisme !Posted on Bhawna Sharma2024-12-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a beautiful experience at Anandam Yoga School. Naveen, Katharina and Sandeep were wonderful teachers. They are so kind and always allow for an atmosphere to feel safe in your vulnerability. The YTT is always an experience where people are learning and growing physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. My yoga teachers always allowed for this growth whilst supporting us when we made mistakes or found poses hard, for example. The YTT here was a truly precious experience for me and one I will hold in my heart. I loved the authenticity and the way we could connect to the yoga philosophy and spirituality of yoga - which is what makes yoga yoga. There was an emphasis on teaching traditional yoga which is incredibly important and I appreciated this a lot. Thank you for my wonderful teachers for their kindness and calmness throughout my journey. The YTT created an opportunity for self-discovery that I truly valued. I enjoyed socially learning about yoga with a lovely group of people. I found depth in my connection with the spirituality of yoga in my solitude and had a real opportunity for self-reflection and empowerment with the YTT. I would definitely recommend it to anyone considering YTT. I am still in touch with Naveen, Katharina and Sandeep and am sure our paths will cross via yoga or friendship again at some point in our lives. Lots of love to you, Bhawna 🤍Posted on Krisi Tsakiris2024-12-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed the 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training with Anandam, and it was one of the most beautiful gifts I’ve ever received in my life. My intention going into the course was to expand my understanding of the yogic philosophy, anatomy, and deepen my personal asanas practice— I walked away with everything I hoped for, and more than I could have imagined. The environment Sandeep and Katharina created allowed us to really dive deep —physically, mentally, and spiritually. If I had to sum up the experience in one word, it would be authentic. Every aspect of the training, from the teachings to the community, was rooted in true yogic history & values. The teachings themselves were structured, disciplined and methodical, yet delivered in a way that felt accessible and not intimidating. I’m the kind of person who loves to ask a million questions, and all of the teachers so happy to engage (even when I thought i might be being annoying!) Amidst all the learning, there was also so so much playfulness, fun, and laughter. It made the experience feel lighthearted, joyful, and full of connection. Beyond the course completion, the supporting materials we received have been invaluable -they're tools I continue to reference almost daily. Meeting and learning from Sandeep and Katharina, (& Nadeem & Ming) was transformative, and I’m beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to learn and grow in such a supportive environment from such beautiful, knowledgeable & grounded people. <3Posted on Kathrin Grimmer2024-11-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear Katharina, dear Sandeep, dear Navin, dear Ming - you wonderful teachers! A heartfelt thank you for all the new knowledge, your experiences you shared with us and the loving space you have created to meet all these wonderful people in our small group of the 200hour teacher training! I loved the atmosphere, I loved the place, I loved the togetherness and of course I loved the pool to cool down 😅 in hot Bali!
