What “Yoga Teacher Residency” means
"Knowing yoga and teaching yoga are different skills."
The word “residency” should not refer only to accommodation. A 200-hour curriculum gives you an essential foundation. Teaching confidence develops when you apply that knowledge repeatedly: observing bodies, choosing clear words, adapting a plan, managing time and learning from feedback. AdiYogam’s Residency keeps these teaching skills at the centre of your training and continues the learning relationship after the closing ceremony.

Frequently Asked Question
Everything you need to know before booking. Still have questions? We respond within 24 hours.
Is this another 200-hour certification?
No. It is a 50-hour post-foundation training for graduates who want more teaching practice and mentorship. It does not replace a foundational 200-hour course.
Does Residency mean a job or work exchange?
No. This is an educational residential program. It includes supervised teaching practice, but it does not guarantee employment, paid classes or placement.
Will I automatically receive the Teacher-Ready badge?
You receive the course completion certificate after meeting attendance and course requirements. The Teacher-Ready badge requires the published assessment, mentoring and teaching-submission requirements.
What if I do not pass the teaching assessment?
You receive a clear improvement plan and one reassessment opportunity within 30 days. The aim is supported development, not surprise failure.
Can I join if my 200-hour course was with another school?
Yes. Applicants from other schools are welcome, subject to eligibility review and the baseline teaching sample.
Is it suitable for injuries or therapy?
The course can offer reasonable practice options, but it is not clinical rehabilitation, mental-health care or trauma treatment. Tell the team about relevant needs before enrolling and consult an appropriate professional when required.
What is included?
Training, mentoring, course materials, the published assessments, selected room and meal plan, and the inclusions stated on the final fee card. Travel, insurance, visas and Yoga Alliance registration are not included unless expressly stated.
