Top 10 Yoga Teacher Trainings In Bali

When you embark on a yoga teacher training course (TTC), you take your first steps on an empowering and heart-opening journey.

You’ll learn not only about yoga, and how to teach it; but also about yourself.

If you’re considering taking your yoga teacher training (YTT) in Bali, read on to get the lowdown on some of the best courses available right now.

But first…

Why Choose Bali?

The island has become a hotspot for yoga in recent years.

And when it comes to yoga instructor courses in Bali, that’s a really good thing; because it’s packed with brilliant, experienced teacher trainers, and there are courses in a huge range of teaching styles.

In addition, Bali is well accustomed to hosting yogis from all over the world.

Which means you’ll find great restaurants (with the best vegan food you’ll ever eat!), shops, and wellness facilities that are set up with everything you’ll need to support your body and mind through an intensive YTT.

Different Styles Of Yoga Teacher Training Courses

There are lots of different ways to train — from weekend courses that span months, to short and intensive trainings.

If you’re heading to Bali for your training you’ll almost definitely be choosing an intensive residential course, which usually last between 21-60 days.

Different courses teach different styles. So as well as the duration and format of your course, you’ll need to make sure it focuses on the style of yoga you want to teach.

The courses on this list cover Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga Vinyasa, Power Yoga, Yin Yoga, and more.

Do You Have To Be Certified To Teach Yoga?

No. Yoga is not currently regulated at government level anywhere in the world, and you can legally teach without a formal certification.

However, you do have to have insurance to teach yoga — and a new teacher is unlikely to get insurance if they’re not qualified, and can’t provide relevant certificates.

For that reason, if you’re searching for your first YTT, it’s important to look for an accredited yoga teacher training in Bali.

All of the courses on this list are accredited by the Yoga Alliance; but there are other recognized accrediting bodies, including the Independent Yoga Network and the British Wheel of Yoga.

Now, onto the exciting bit…
