Siddhi Yoga: 500 Hour Yoga Teacher Training

Course program

The 500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training by Siddhi Yoga is a Yoga Alliance-accredited online program that combines the school’s full 200-hour and 300-hour curricula into one comprehensive certification. Rooted in classical Indian yoga traditions and taught by senior teachers from India, the program prepares students to teach yoga professionally and register as RYT-500.

This program is for students who have already completed a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training and want to deepen their practice into advanced territory while earning the RYT-500 designation. It suits aspiring full-time teachers, busy professionals adding yoga to a wellness career, existing instructors wanting a comprehensive credential, and serious practitioners committed to making yoga an integral part of their lifestyle.

The curriculum unfolds across the foundational 200-hour content and the advanced 300-hour content. The 200-hour portion covers diverse asana families including standing, seated, forward bends, back bends, spinal rotations, inversions, supine and prone positions, hand balancing, and hip openers. Students study body mechanics and alignment, sequencing, pranayama, fundamentals of anatomy, basics of yoga philosophy, meditation, Bhakti Yoga, and teaching methodology.

The 300-hour portion advances into stronger asana including arm balances, advanced inversions, and deeper twists, alongside restorative poses for healing. It deepens pranayama, anatomy, philosophy through Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita, meditation, Bhakti Yoga kirtans, teaching methodology, and yoga for specific health conditions. Class management, ethics, and a practicum on sequencing and class observation round out the training.

The program is led by senior Indian teachers including Dr. Sumit Sharma, who teaches anatomy, physiology, yoga therapy, posture correction, and injury prevention; Shobhit Ghanshyala, who covers Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, restorative, and therapeutic yoga; and Yogacharya Sandeep Pandey, who leads yoga philosophy, Yoga Nidra, pranayama, meditation, Bhakti Yoga, mudras, and mindfulness. Siddhi Yoga has been a Registered Yoga School operating since 2013.

The format is hybrid. Students work through 500-plus pre-recorded video lessons at their own pace and join daily live Zoom classes for practice and direct interaction with instructors. A digital manual supports the curriculum, and weekly Saturday and Sunday Zoom sessions provide direct teacher access. The Siddhi Certified plan includes 12 months of course access and 12 months of Zoom access; the Professional plan extends to lifetime course access and 24 months of Zoom access. A 14-day money-back guarantee applies.

Graduates earn two Yoga Alliance-recognized certifications, the 200-hour and 300-hour, and qualify to register as RYT-500 with Yoga Alliance after submitting their certificate and paying the annual registration fee. The credential is valid for life. Both pricing tiers also include free Restorative Yoga and Principles of Ayurveda certifications.
