Yoga Styles You Will Learn in a 300 Hour Yoga Teaching Course  in RishikeshHatha Yoga

Known as the mother of all yogas, hatha represents the basis for many styles. It stresses the body and mind, postures, breath, and relaxation; the uniting of sun energy with moon forces.

Yin Yoga

Practised slowly and with long-duration poses that target deeper tissues such as ligaments and connective tissue. It helps to relieve tension, increase energy flow and flexibility.

Restorative Yoga

Gentle form of yoga in which the body is supported with props. The focus is on achieving a state of deep relaxation and release from stress, making it the perfect way to still the mind.

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga

A dynamic and powerful style that joins movement with breath. Building strength, endurance, flexibility and technique, as well as teaching safe sequences for all levels of ability.

Vinyasa Yoga

In Sanskrit, “vinyasa” means deliberate sequence. This dynamic style paces movement with breathing in fast rhythms, improving physical strength and mental clarity; at the same time, it preserves both yoga’s traditional roots.
