Integral Yoga is the complete Yoga that integrates all aspects of life and maintains our natural condition of an easeful body, peaceful mind and useful life. For over forty years, students from all over the world have come to spend one month in residence to participate in this program.

Integral Yoga Hatha Teacher Training is a comprehensive, month-long program that teaches you the skills necessary to instruct Integral Yoga Hatha Beginners I. This basic class, taught to thousands of students at Integral Yoga Institutes and around the world, is utilized by Dr. Dean Ornish in his groundbreaking work in reversing heart disease. The Beginners I class consists of asanas (Yoga poses), deep relaxation, pranayama (breathing practices), chanting, and meditation. You will receive training in teaching all the aspects of this class. The Integral Yoga approach is suitable for complete beginners and is taught in an easeful, highly meditative manner. The student is guided to a deep level of physical and mental well-being, vitality, and relaxation, promoting flexibility, strength, and health for the entire system.

Swami Satchidananda described Integral Yoga as:

... a flexible combination of specific methods to develop every aspect of the individual: physical, intellectual, and spiritual. It is a scientific system which integrates the various branches of Yoga in order to bring about a complete and harmonious development of the individual.

What Makes Integral Yoga Unique?
Integral Yoga is a complete system that cultivates and maintains the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health of the individual.
