The deeply spiritual culture, stunning scenery, lovely people, affordable prices and abundance of amazing yoga retreats, spas, vegan cafes, make Bali one of the best places in the world to do a yoga teacher training course (YTTC) whether you want to become a certified yoga instructor or just deepen your own practice.

Why you should consider doing yoga teacher training in Bali

If you’ve been practicing yoga for a while then you probably already know that India is the birthplace of yoga. So why, when I’ve lived in India, do I say that the best place in the world to do yoga teacher training is Bali?

Well, even though I love India it can be a challenging place, especially for solo female travellers, facilities can be basic and first time visitors to India often get sick.

Bali is a Hindu island, so it follows a similar ancient Hindu culture, spirituality and philosophy to that of India. There’s also fantastic scenery, gorgeous nature,  great weather, fresh and healthy food (the raw vegan restaurants in Ubud are amazing!)

Doing a yoga teacher training in Bali is more comfortable allowing you to focus more on enjoying your course. Plus, some of the best yoga teachers from both India and the West come to Bali and there is such a huge range of amazing yoga teacher training courses here to choose from.

There’s also a lot of like minded people and other yogis to met and the Balinese people are some of the most genuine, happy and friendly people in the world.

Bali is more modern, cleaner, quieter, calmer and safer for female travellers than India whilst still being mesmerizingly beautiful and deeply spiritual. That’s why I moved to Bali when I needed to take a break from the craziness of India!

Doing a YTT is challenging, so it’s important that you can feel safe, relaxed, and enjoy the experience. So that’s why I think Bali is really the perfect place to do a YTT as you can really relax, concentrate on your yoga practice, immerse yourself in Hindu spirituality and leave feeling rejuvenated (and inspired to visit Rishikesh next maybe!? :)) without having to deal with the stresses of India.

There’s a real magical energy in Bali that is not possible to describe in words which can only be experienced so I guess it’s not surprising that people flock here from all over the world to find spirituality, inner peace, healing and to learn to live a healthier way of life.

Where are the best places to do yoga teacher training in Bali?

Bali is a larger island than most think so think about where you want to do your yoga teacher training. The best places for yoga courses in Bali are Ubud, Canggu and Ulu Watu.

Ubud, is the spiritual, cultural, and artistic heart of Bali which has become one of the world’s meccas for yoga. The yoga scene has Ubud has grown in popularity after the popular book and film  ‘Eat Pray Love.‘ Did you know that the book was actually based on a true story and that the word Ubud comes from the Balinese ‘Ubad‘ which means medicine!?

Ubud has long been known as a mystical place with healing powers and there are still medicine men and traditional healers here. The Bali Spirit festival is held in Ubud in May each year.

If your dream is to practice yoga outside surrounded by beautiful rice paddies, ancient temples and spectacular rice terraces, relaxing in affordable spas and enjoying the delicious raw vegan cafes then consider doing your yoga teacher training in Ubud. 

But Ubud isn’t the only place to practice yoga in Bali, the whole of this magical island is a one of the best places in the world to relax, rejuvenate and reconnect with nature, yourself and your yoga practice – that’s why you’ll find some of the world’s best spas, yoga, meditation and wellness retreats here and why yoga teacher training in Bali is so popular that it attracts people from all the world.

If you prefer to do your yoga training near the beach, and maybe fancy learning to surf as well, check out yoga teacher training in Canggu, Ulu Watu, or Seminyak if you want to be closer to the nightlife.

And if you want to escape the tourist crowds and have a truly peaceful experience head to Lovina in North or Amed in East Bali. You could even train to become a yoga instructor on a tiny tropical island like the Nusa Lembongan or the Gili Islands. There’s really no shortage of options for yoga in Bali!

How much does yoga teacher training in Bali cost?

Bali yoga teacher training is an important investment in both your physical, mental and spiritual health and also your future career if you are planning to teach yoga. Bali is a more affordable place to do your yoga training than the West.

Most 200 hour yoga teacher training courses in Bali cost between $1000 and $2500. Most courses take between 2 – 4 weeks to complete and prices include training, accommodation and meals. Some even include some excursions to explore the island and airport transfers making it really quite a good deal.

If cost is an issue you may be able to find Bali yoga teacher training scholarships where you volunteer to help out at the yoga school as well to earn your place on the training.

Don’t forget to budget for the cost of your flights and visa too. You can get a 30 day visa on arrival at the airport which costs USD 35. To find the best deals of flights to Bali check Skyscanner. You should be able to get a return air ticket from UK or Europe to Bali for about £500 or around $1000 from East Coast US.

Bali is very affordable to travel around and very safe for solo female travellers so I’d recommend allowing extra time either after your yoga course or before it begins to explore beautiful Bali. Check out my Bali itinerary for the perfect combination of sightseeing, spirituality, yoga and surfing.

Different programs for yoga certification in Bali

There’s a variety of yoga courses to choose from but if you want to be qualified to start teaching yoga then the basic requirement is the completion of a 200 hour yoga teacher training course. 

These programs normally take between 15 – 30 days to complete and are usually residential meaning your yoga classes, food and accommodation are all included. I recommend taking the most time you can for the best experience because it is an intensive and challenging process.

While most yoga schools request that students should have at least 6 months of regular yoga practice there are no formal requirements to join these courses, some even take beginners.

All Bali yoga teacher training courses will cover not only the physical aspects of yoga, like the asanas, meditation and pranayama, but will also include theoretical lectures of yoga philosophy, anatomy and physiology and teaching methodology. The best programs include plenty of teaching practice so that you will feel confident and ready to teach upon completion.

Once you have completed the 200 hour training, you can further advance your knowledge with a 300 hour yoga teacher training. Or you could do them both together with an intensive 500 hour yoga training, this is a combination of the 200 hour and 300 hour yoga programs in succession and takes about 60 days.

If you don’t have that much time and are looking for short yoga courses in Bali you can also do a 100 hour yoga teacher training in Bali and come back later to do another 100 hours to complete your training. There’s also a few 50 hour options in Yin Yoga for example which are normally extras to add onto to a 200 hour certification or just to improve your personal practice.

Also be aware that if you want become a registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance make sure the course you choose is approved by Yoga Alliance.

Different types of yoga training packages

As well as considering the yoga program you’ll also want to check what’s included in the package – this will mostly come down to your personal preferences and budget.

Would you prefer an all inclusive yoga teacher training package that includes accommodation and food in a yoga resort/ retreat style, or would you prefer to be more independent and just book the yoga training and then find your own hotel and restaurants nearby? Food at yoga schools is usually vegetarian or vegan so be prepared for that.

In my experience, the all inclusive yoga teacher training retreats are often great value for money as they also often include airport transfers and some local excursions. The days can be long and tiring on an intensive yoga training so it’s one less thing on your mind when food and accommodation are all included on site. Plus the community vibes you’ll get from staying on site with the other students is priceless – many people meet new life long yogi friends on a YTT.

Luxury yoga teacher training retreats will often have a swimming pool and spa and be held in a beautiful resort, while cheaper YTTs may have shared rooms to keep costs down and may not provide as much food.

So check what’s included in the package to make sure you will be comfortable and have the best experience. Whatever you decide, always make sure your YTT is Yoga Alliance approved.

How to choose the best course for you

Yoga teacher training in Bali is a life changing, transformative and very rewarding journey but it can also be challenging and expensive so it’s important that you do your research, prepare and practice different yoga styles and find the best YTTC for you and the style that you wish to teach.

There are so many different styles of yoga from traditional Hatha yoga, to full power work out yoga styles like Ashtanga Yoga and Vinyasa Yoga, to calming, relaxing and therapeutic styles like Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra.

Once you find a style that you like and a teacher that you like in your home town commit to going at least 2 or 3 times a week for at least 6 months to prepare for your Bali yoga teacher training.

If you’re not sure which yoga style to focus on I’d recommend doing a multi-style or traditional Hatha yoga teacher training.

Remember to listen to your body because you only get one so you need to make sure that you’re ready for yoga teacher training. Don’t worry, you don’t need to be able to do every pose perfectly to join a yoga teacher training in Bali, it’s the journey that matters.

Before you get overwhelmed trying to choose between the hundreds of yoga programs in Bali, take time to think about what your goals and personal preferences are, as well as your reasons for doing yoga training. This will make it easier to filter through the huge range of options to find the course that’s right for you

There are many reasons to do yoga teacher training – not just getting a yoga teacher certification. Maybe you want change your whole career and become a yoga teacher, or maybe you just want to take some time out to learn more about yogic philosophy, focus on deepening your practice, get fitter and healthier, or simply finding out more about yourself.

Either way, yoga teacher training could really change your life and be the start to a whole new path just make sure you get the certification you need.

As well your reasons for doing a YTT and the certification you’ll gain, other important things to consider when looking for a yoga teacher training program include:

• The style of yoga taught
• Your experience level
• The length and price of the course
• The facilities and location
• The reputation of the yoga school and instructors

How to find real reviews

With so many Bali yoga teacher training courses to choose from one thing that is really important to check is reviews.

Be aware that the reviews and testimonials you see on a schools website or social media pages may not tell the whole truth so you need to see real reviews from previous students.

#MeToo in yoga is sadly a concern and yoga teacher training is big business now so you can never be too careful. You want your YTT to be an amazing experience and great investment for all the right reasons!

I’ve found sites like www.bookyogateachertraining.com, www.bookretreats.com and  www.bookyogaretreats.com really helpful.

On these sites you can search through all the yoga teacher training courses in Bali (and across the world) learn more about the program, style of yoga, instructors, accommodation, food etc and, most importantly, you can read real reviews written by people that have already taken these courses.

Best Yoga Training in Ulu Watu – Ulu Yoga

The area of Ulu Watu in the far southern tip of Bali has picturesque beaches and surf spots and is less crowded than popular Ubud and Canggu making it ideal for yoga training.

My top pick for Ulu Watu is ULU Yoga who have been running highly rated YTT’s since 2014. What makes their programs so popular is not only the location and ocean view shala but also the variety of yoga styles and activities offered.

Their 21 day 200 hour multi style YTT focuses on Hatha and Vinyasa yoga and also includes workshops on Ashtanga, Aerial, Acro and Yin yoga. So as well as building a strong foundation in traditional hatha yoga and flowing vinyasa you will also experience the healing release of yin yoga classes and delight your inner child with fun acro and aerial yoga sessions.

They even offer a free shuttle if you choose to stay in cheaper rooms in nearby homestays and the package includes vegetarian breakfast, lunch and dinner each day.

The Yoga Barn, Ubud

No mention of yoga in Bali or list of yoga teacher training courses in Bali would be complete without Ubud’s famous Yoga Barn.

It’s not just a YTT centre, the Yoga Barn has become the most famous yoga studio in Bali since it was opened in 2007. The Yoga Barn has become known as Southeast Asia’s biggest full service yoga studio and holistic healing retreat centre thanks to the huge array of yoga classes and styles offered every day. There’s over 15 classes & workshops each day to choose from!

The Yoga Barn is a beautiful oasis tucked away behind a main street in Ubud – the luscious cultural and spiritual heart of Bali. It’s nestled in tropical gardens and has 6 separate yoga spaces, cafes, a spa and wellness centre and a guest house all with a beautiful spiritual and Balinese ambiance.

The Yoga Barn also brings in famous teachers from all over the world and some of these also lead yoga teacher training courses in Bali here that attract yogis from all over the world.

Every kind of yoga class, yoga teacher training and holistic therapy you can think of is on offer at the Yoga Barn so it’s a great place to try out loads of different yoga styles and therapies. The ecstatic dance is also super popular.

The Yoga Barn offers a wide range of yoga teacher trainings, including Yin Yoga, Vinyasa, Power Yoga and Kundalini. They also have advanced teacher trainings for those that are already certified yoga teachers.

I feel that the Yoga Barn does deserves the hype, there are so many amazing classes although for me I felt a bit lost, the campus is beautiful but it was a bit too big and there were too many people in the classes for me – I prefer something a little more personal and intimate.

Also, the Yoga Barn isn’t the cheapest place to do a yoga teacher training and normally accommodation and food are not included so it’s a pricey option but the Yoga Barn name is so well known world-wide and the teachers are top class so it will look impressive on your certificate which is a plus.

Check out their yoga training programs here.

Radiantly Alive, Ubud

I also loved Radiantly Alive, this popular yoga studio is also situated in Ubud town center but it’s just off the main busy streets on the quaint Jalan Jembawan No. 3. It’s close to everything but doesn’t feel too noisy and some of the shalas has lovely open views out into the green, luscious jungle.

Radiantly Alive host over 60 inspiring yoga and movement classes per week. They offer a huge variety of drop in yoga classes, meditations, workshops, masterclasses, retreats, yoga teacher trainings, healings and holistic therapies. There’s also a cafe which serves super delicious and healthy food and the vibe here is really friendly and class sizes are alot smaller.

Their motto even says “Come for the yoga, stay for family!” I felt right at home in this place and particularly  enjoyed the Sky/Ariel Yoga. They also attract world class famous yoga teachers who run workshops, intensives and teacher trainings and put some of their profits into helping the nearby local Sari Hati School.

They run a variety of yoga teacher training courses through out the year, check out their upcoming courses here, there is no accommodation on site but there’s plenty of accommodation for all budgets within close walking distance.
