The yoga industry in 2026 has become much more focused on lineage. Studios are looking for instructors who have trained at the source rather than through generic online courses.

I’ve found that holding a certificate from an established ashtanga yoga shala Rishikesh gives you immediate credibility. For new instructors, a 200 hour yoga teacher training provides the bedrock you need. To command higher rates and lead workshops, advancing to a 300 hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh is the most logical next step.

If you're testing the waters of a new career, a 100 hour yoga teacher training Rishikesh is a great short-term investment. And for those of us already in the grind, a 14 days yoga retreat in Rishikesh is the best way to stay grounded and inspired for our students.
