Tree of India School of Yoga Teacher Training Program

The Tree of India School of Yoga offers an immersive and transformative training experience rooted in the living tradition of classical yoga as taught through the Kripalu lineage of Swami Kripalvananda. Trainees can expect a balance of intellectual study, embodied practice, and inner reflection designed to integrate yoga into all aspects of life. The training blends in-person weekend immersions, guided home practice, group discussion, and individual mentorship, creating a rich and supportive learning environment. Each session weaves together asana, pranayama, meditation, mantra, philosophy, anatomy, and the art of teaching—always emphasizing yoga as a path of self-realization and compassionate service. Rather than focusing solely on technique, the experience invites students to slow down, listen inward, and awaken their innate wisdom. Trainees are encouraged to approach practice as a sacred inquiry: to observe, to feel, to question, and to grow. Graduates often describe the training as life-changing—a time of personal evolution that deepens not only their practice, but their understanding of what it means to live yoga in the modern world.
