Our Approach

Teaching Yoga Requires More Than Knowing the Postures

A meaningful teacher training should not simply give students a sequence to memorise. It should help them understand why a practice is used, how it affects the body and mind, and when it may need to be adapted.

At Stri Wellness, traditional yogic knowledge is taught alongside anatomy, physiology, modern research, observation and supervised teaching practice.

Our aim is to help trainees develop not only knowledge, but also discernment, confidence and the ability to respond responsibly to the person in front of them.

Why Serious Yoga Students Still Come to the Himalayas

There is a reason yoga has been studied in the Himalayas for centuries. Away from the distractions of everyday life, students have the time and space to practise, reflect and absorb learning more deeply. Uttarkashi is the setting for Stri Wellness's residential trainings—not a separate format, but an essential part of the residential experience.

Testimonials

In Their Words

Real experiences shared by Stri Wellness students, clients and trainee teachers.

"Doing the prenatal postnatal TTC course at Stri Wellness was the best decision of my life. The course is well designed and very well structured. Nisha has an in-depth knowledge about the physiology, anatomy of a pregnant woman. The classes were very informative and interactive. I recommend with my whole heart Stri Wellness to everyone."

"Super Awesome! Nisha mam has designed and delivered the whole course in a well organized way. She kept the class motivated and engaged throughout theory and yoga practices.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Which training is right for me?
You do not need to decide on your own. Submit an enquiry using the form on this page, and our team will help you choose the right specialisation and format based on your experience, goals and availability.
Do I need previous teaching experience?
No. Most of our trainings welcome both new and experienced teachers. A personal yoga practice of around six months is generally recommended; specific eligibility is confirmed for each programme before you enrol.
What is the difference between Live Online and Self-Paced Online?
Live Online trainings are delivered through scheduled, interactive sessions with direct faculty teaching and feedback. Self-Paced Online trainings use recorded coursework that you can start anytime and complete on your own schedule.
Where are the Residential trainings held?
Our Residential trainings are held at our Uttarkashi campus in the Himalayas, with accommodation, meals and daily practice included as part of the immersion.
Is the campus in Rishikesh?
No. Our residential campus is in Uttarkashi, further into the Himalayas than Rishikesh, on the road toward Gangotri. Most trainees fly or take the train to Dehradun or Rishikesh and travel onward to Uttarkashi by road — see our campus page and practical guide for the full route.
Is Uttarkashi a separate training format?
No. Uttarkashi is where our Residential trainings are held — it is part of the Residential format, not a separate delivery mode.
Can international students join?
Yes. Live Online and Self-Paced Online trainings can be joined from anywhere in the world, and international students are welcome to join our Residential trainings at the Uttarkashi campus.
In which languages is the training conducted?
Live training sessions are primarily conducted in English, with Hindi explanations provided whenever needed. Translation support for other languages may be arranged for live sessions by prior agreement, subject to availability. Prerecorded lessons and self-paced courses are available in English only.
Are the trainings certified?
Yes. Each training is registered with Yoga Alliance under the credential appropriate to that programme — including YACEP continuing education hours, RPYT for prenatal and postnatal training, and RCYS for children's yoga — recognised internationally.
