What to Expect from Your 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training
This training is designed as a space for integration, refinement, and deeper embodiment of your practice and teaching.
This is where your teaching becomes your own.
If you’ve completed a 200-hour training but still feel there is more to integrate, refine, and embody, this 300-hour advanced yoga teacher training is designed for that next stage.
This is not about learning more for the sake of more.
It is about deepening your understanding, refining your voice, and stepping more fully into your role as a teacher.
Our 300-hour yoga teacher training supports this process by offering an immersive, integrative experience that allows what you’ve learned to become integrated, embodied, and truly your own.
Unlike many advanced trainings, our 300-hour program is taught alongside our 200-hour teacher training cohort. While advanced students participate in dedicated mentorship, advanced teaching methodology, project-based learning, and specialized coursework, much of the core curriculum is shared.
We intentionally design the training this way because every student arrives with different strengths, experiences, and areas of growth. Returning to foundational teachings alongside newer students creates an opportunity to revisit essential concepts through a more mature lens, uncover new layers of understanding, and deepen your capacity to teach them effectively.
Rather than moving further away from the fundamentals, you’ll learn to inhabit them more fully and discover that the deepest wisdom is often found within the practices and principles you thought you already knew.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
About Lakshmi Rising’s 300-Hour YTT
What makes Lakshmi Rising different from other 300-hour trainings?
Lakshmi Rising’s 300-hour training is designed for depth, integration, and refinement, supporting experienced practitioners in moving beyond technique into embodied teaching.
Rather than focusing on accumulating more information, this program helps you clarify your voice, develop greater nuance in your teaching, and integrate what you already know into a more cohesive and confident approach.
One of the unique aspects of our program is that 300-hour students learn alongside our 200-hour teacher training cohort for much of the curriculum. While advanced students receive dedicated mentorship, specialized coursework, and opportunities for deeper exploration, many foundational teachings are intentionally shared.
We believe that mastery is not found by moving beyond the fundamentals, but by returning to them with greater awareness. Because students arrive with diverse backgrounds, teaching experience, and areas of focus, revisiting essential concepts within a mixed cohort often reveals new insights, strengthens understanding, and deepens the ability to communicate these teachings effectively.
Guided by decades of study and mentorship, the experience is rigorous, supportive, and invites meaningful personal and professional evolution.
What is the difference between a Lakshmi Rising 200-hour and 300-hour training?
Our 200-hour training provides the foundational knowledge and skills to begin teaching yoga.
Our 300-hour training is designed to deepen and refine that foundation to support you in developing greater clarity, confidence, and nuance in your teaching while expanding your understanding of practice, philosophy, anatomy, and the art of guiding others.
While 300-hour students participate in many of the same core lectures and discussions as our 200-hour cohort, the experience is distinctly different. Advanced students follow a more rigorous curriculum that includes specialized textbooks, additional projects and assignments, advanced teaching methodology, and longer training days.
The mixed-cohort model also creates unique opportunities during our asana labs and practicum sessions. A common reality, given the wide variety of yoga traditions and teacher training backgrounds, is that much of the 200-hour content is also new to the 300-hour students.
For some 300-hour students, mixed-cohort sessions provide valuable hands-on experience with postures, techniques, and teaching concepts they may not have previously studied in depth. For others, this become a space to work at a more advanced level: refining hands-on adjustments, developing intelligent short-form sequencing, mentoring newer teachers, and exploring how to communicate foundational concepts with greater clarity and skill.
Our approach allows each 300-hour student to meet the practice where they are, while continuing to develop the depth, adaptability, and confidence that distinguish experienced teachers.
What qualifications or prerequisites do I need to participate?
The primary prerequisite is completion of a 200-hour yoga teacher training, either through Lakshmi Rising or another school in any tradition.
You do not need prior teaching experience. This training is designed to support you whether you are actively teaching, returning after time away, or still building confidence in your role as a teacher.
If you have not yet completed a 200-hour training, we recommend starting with our foundational program.
Do I need prior teaching experience?
No.
Many students join this training with limited or no teaching experience. The program is designed to support you in refining your skills, building confidence, and developing a more grounded and authentic approach to teaching.
If you come with curiosity, openness, and a willingness to grow, you will be supported as you develop clarity and your own unique voice as a teacher.
Is this program Yoga Alliance certified?
Yes. Lakshmi Rising is a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School, and upon completion of your 300-hour training, you will be eligible to register as an RYT 500.
Who will be teaching my training?
Your lead teacher is Dr. Liz Lindh, founder and program director of Lakshmi Rising, with nearly 30 years of dedicated study and teaching experience.
She is supported by a carefully selected team of experienced teachers, many of whom are graduates of our 300-hour training. She creates a learning environment that is both knowledgeable and deeply supportive.
Learn more about our teaching team.
What is a typical day like during the training?
Each day is designed to support both depth of study and space for integration.
Mornings often begin with meditation, pranayama, and a more nuanced asana practice which explores not just the “what” of movement, but the “how” and “why.” From there, we move into lectures and discussions that expand your understanding of philosophy, anatomy, energetics, and the art of teaching.
Afternoons are dedicated to application—practice teaching, workshops, and collaborative learning—where you begin to refine your voice and approach through direct experience.
Evenings may include restorative practices, group dialogue, or time for reflection, allowing what you’ve learned to settle and integrate.
There is a steady rhythm to each day, but also flexibility to create space for insight, rest, and deeper inquiry.
Throughout the training, we include dedicated time off for integration and exploration, supporting both personal reflection and connection to your surroundings.
Each day builds upon the next, allowing your understanding to deepen gradually so that by the end of the training, what you’ve learned feels embodied, not just understood.

“I attended the 300hr Lakshmi Rising yoga teacher in February 2024. From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was in safe hands; the space Liz has created is warm and nurtures personal development. Liz supports students to extend their comfort zone and has constructed a programme which nurtures authentic yogis. I now feel I can lean more intuitively into what I teach, and I feel more authentic as a teacher. This training has been invaluable to me.”

WHY LAKSHMI RISING
A Different Kind of Advanced Training
Our 300-hour yoga teacher training is designed for integration, refinement, and depth.
It builds on your foundational training by introducing new material, revisiting essential concepts through a more advanced lens, and helping you develop the clarity, discernment, and confidence to apply what you are learning in meaningful ways.
The goal is not simply to know more, but to understand more deeply, integrate more fully, and teach with greater skill and intention.
This is where your practice and your teaching begin to come into alignment.
Guided by nearly three decades of study and teaching, founder and director Liz Lindh shapes each training with care, precision, and a deep respect for both tradition and the individual experience of each student.
The result is a learning environment that is both rigorous and supportive, one that invites genuine growth as a teacher and practitioner.
Through somatic movement, refined sequencing, subtle body exploration, and sustained self-inquiry, you’ll develop a more nuanced and embodied approach to teaching. Supported by daily practice, plant-based nourishment, and an intentional community, the experience fosters clarity, depth, and a greater sense of direction in your teaching.
By the end of the training, what you’ve learned will not simply be understood, it will be integrated in a way that naturally informs how you teach, practice, and live moving forward.
“Wow! Wow! Wow! No pictures or words do it justice! Absolutely amazing experience and Liz’s essence is like a warm Sunny Hug, and she is so well informed and educated! You can feel her empathy, and she creates such a safe space for her students to show us as they are and gather a massive tool box for Life’s inevitable ups and downs. Can’t recommend this enough! Life changing experience!”
READY FOR YOUR NEXT STEP?
An Invitation to Continue the Work
If you feel the pull to go deeper, to refine your teaching, clarify your voice, and integrate what you’ve already learned, this training is here to support that next stage.
This is a more advanced container, and it asks for presence, commitment, and a willingness to engage more fully with the practice.
Perhaps most importantly, it asks for a beginner’s mind.
One of the greatest misconceptions about advanced practice is that it is about accumulating more knowledge. In yoga, true depth comes from the willingness to continually return to the fundamentals with fresh eyes, curiosity, and humility. The more experienced we become, the more we recognize that mastery is not knowing everything. Actually, the most advanced practice is to remain open to learning.
You don’t need to have everything figured out, but you do need to feel the readiness to step in.
This is a meaningful investment of your time, energy, and attention. It’s important that it feels aligned.
