IKIGAI YOGA SCHOOL
200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Course with IKIGAI Team
Become Confident in Your Practice, Your Teaching, and Your Understanding of Yoga.
Our Yoga Teacher Trainings are built on structure, clarity, and real world teaching, led by a curated team of experienced instructors at IKIGAI.
The Teacher Training Course (TTC) is a 10 weekend course.
The lead teachers in this training are: Tara FitzPatrick, Gianni Melwani, Amelie Rondole, Aymeric Vollant, Arvind Singh, Bhakti Wong.
This course is an open level training suitable for students who want to understand more about yoga and take their practice to the next level.
It is also for students who have already completed a 200 hour training in the past and want to learn from other teachers or refresh their knowledge and upgrade their practice.
Although upon completion of the course you will become a certified teacher, taking a yoga teacher training course is not only for those who want to become teachers.
It is a transformative experience for anyone who wants to understand the true meaning of yoga, health and happiness.

Hear From Our Past Graduates
The Problems We Solve.
Two Paths. Two Different Outcomes.
Practice without a system
You can be consistent and still feel stuck. This is what it often looks like in real life.
Practice regularly but still feel unsure how to perform, sequence, or explain poses.
Practice regularly but not improve or progress in a clear direction.
Feel inspired by teachers, but struggle to translate it into your own voice.
Want to try teaching, but feel like an imposter and hesitate.
Love yoga but stay lost in vague or inconsistent explanations.
Crave something beyond the physical practice, but do not know where to start with breath and meditation.
Train with structure and clarity
A clear framework that connects practice and teaching. You leave knowing what to do, and why it works.
Follow a clear curriculum that connects anatomy, philosophy, alignment, and teaching.
Learn to break down poses with real explanations, not vague cues.
Build sequencing skills through practice, feedback, and repetition.
Find your teaching voice with mentorship, not performance pressure.
Leave with confidence, a framework, and a certification that means something.
This training exists to replace confusion with clarity, and hesitation with confidence.
What You Will Learn
The curriculum is designed to build confident practitioners and capable teachers.
