The small city of Dharamsala is surrounded by the breathtaking Himalayas. Dharamsala is said to vibrate with the pure spiritual energy and abundance of the Himalayas. At Siddhi Yoga, you will be immersed in an environment that supports your yoga practice physically, energetically, and spiritually.
Dharamsala is known for being home to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, along with many Tibetans who have taken refuge in Mcleodganj, about one kilometer away. The word “Dharamsala” can be loosely translated to “spiritual dwelling place,” and amazingly, it lives up to its name.
Our 500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training is a rare opportunity for serious yoga practitioners to deepen their knowledge in the heart of India. Spending time with Indian yoga masters is an incomparable way to enhance your practice and prepare to share yoga with others.
This advanced yoga teacher training will take you beyond the basics and leave you ready to teach with confidence as a 500 Hour RYT. You’ll study advanced poses and learn to teach the basics with greater sophistication. Each phase of asana study is informed by anatomy, alignment, and physiology, preparing you to apply that knowledge to every sequence you create.
In addition to an in-depth look at the physical aspects of yoga, our 500 Hour training will guide you to explore expansiveness of mind through yoga philosophy, meditation, mudra, bandhas, kriya, and pranayama. You’ll also learn the therapeutic and psychological applications of these practices. Finally, you’ll explore the business and ethics of teaching yoga and leave fully prepared for success.
At Siddhi Yoga, we combine quality with value to offer far more than physical exercise. Yoga provides life-changing tools that go beyond asana, and we’re committed to sharing them with you.
We also uphold yoga’s spiritual depth, which is non-denominational and non-religious. Any students who wish to deepen their practice–physical, spiritual, or both–is welcome, even if teaching is not the goal.

Yes, if you plan to stay fewer than 60 days, you’ll need an e-Visa. Your passport should also be valid for six months after the date of arrival.
Applying for a Visa is a very tricky and confusing process, especially for people who are traveling for the first time. But you don’t have to worry. Here we have covered all the necessary details.
Be sure your passport is valid for six months after the time of your arrival.
To attend training, you can use a normal tourist visa. If you are staying 60 days or fewer, you can also apply for an eVisa. You can apply for an eVisa 120 days before your arrival date.
Getting an Indian E–visa is easy and quick; however, it can also reduce your stay. The E–visa is processed within 72 hours, and you are required to apply for it at least four days before your departure. The E–visa cannot be extended, and you are only allowed to apply for it twice a year.
Except for the 17 major Indian airports, the E–visa users are not permitted to use any other arrival terminus. Your passport photos and bio must be scanned/uploaded. Once the procedure is completed, you can print out your E–visa. For application and further instructions, you can visit the following links:
