Siddhi Yoga: 50 Hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training

Course program

The 50-Hour Online Yin Yoga Teacher Training from Siddhi Yoga is a Yoga Alliance-accredited certification taught by senior Indian yoga teachers. The program introduces yin yoga as a slow, meditative practice that targets connective tissue and the energetic body, and prepares students to add yin teaching to their existing practice or studio.

The training is open to anyone passionate about yoga — no prior credential is required. It suits dedicated practitioners who want to deepen their personal practice and existing yoga teachers who want to add yin to their toolkit and earn 50 hours of Yoga Alliance continuing education. Students who value functional anatomy and meditative, slow-paced work will feel at home.

The curriculum begins with the basics of yin yoga, its history, and how it differs from yang styles and from restorative yoga. Students study yin and yang tissues, the principles of practicing yin yoga, and how to differentiate yin from other modalities. Pranayama, the five elements with their associated mudras, and the meridian system are covered alongside their connection to Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Functional anatomy is woven throughout, with attention to how the body actually moves in yin postures. The pose library walks through opening poses, seated poses, prone poses, supine poses, and inverted, restorative, and finishing poses. Students also receive twenty yin yoga sequences they can use directly in their teaching, supported by a comprehensive digital manual.

The program features Amit Rehela, a Dharamshala-based E-RYT 500 yoga teacher specializing in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, pranayama, meditation, therapeutic yoga, and teaching methodology, and Dr. Sumit Sharma, a specialist in dynamic anatomy, physiology, yoga therapy, posture correction, and injury prevention. Siddhi Yoga has operated since 2013 and has trained over 5,000 yoga teachers across more than 125 countries.

The training is delivered fully online and self-paced through 55 video lessons with subtitles available in 10 languages and an English digital manual. Students progress at their own speed and receive personal mentoring along the way. Two access tiers are offered — a six-month course access option and a lifetime access option — both with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
