About the 300 Hour Advanced TTC
The 300 Hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training at Medhya Laya is designed for those who have already completed a 200 Hour TTC and are ready to significantly elevate their knowledge, practice, and teaching ability. This 30-day immersion is where good teachers become great ones.
The curriculum ventures far deeper into advanced asana — including challenging inversions, arm balances, and deep backbends — alongside an in-depth exploration of classical yoga texts, the chakra and subtle body system, Ayurveda integration, Yoga Nidra, mantra and Sanskrit, and advanced teaching methodology.
Upon completion, you will be eligible to register as an RYT-300 with Yoga Alliance. If you have already completed a 200 Hour course, this also makes you eligible for the RYT-500 designation — the highest level of Yoga Alliance certification.
⚠️ Prerequisite
A valid 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training certificate from any Yoga Alliance registered school is required to enroll in this program. If you haven't completed a 200 Hour TTC yet, please see our 200 Hour TTC page.
