Overview

The 100-Hour Yoga TTC at Anandmaya Yoga Academy is a foundational journey into the heart of yoga.
Designed for beginners, travelers, spiritual seekers, and practitioners who wish to deepen their practice—but may not have the time for a full 200-hour program—this course introduces the essential elements of traditional yoga in a clear, authentic, and immersive way.
Located at the peaceful Anandmaya Retreat in Tapovan, Rishikesh, our 100-hour program blends Hatha Yoga, Ashtanga Vinyasa, Pranayama, Meditation, Philosophy, and unique modules such as Vedic Astrology Introduction and Sound Healing Experience.

This course is the first half of our 200-hour TTC and can be completed as a standalone program or continued later.

  • Beginners who want an authentic introduction to yoga
  • Practitioners who want to strengthen their personal practice
  • Travelers exploring yoga in Rishikesh
  • Students who plan to complete their 200 hours in two parts
  • Anyone seeking spiritual growth, discipline, and inner clarity
