Join Us for a 100-Hour Traditional Yoga Teacher Training at Begnas Lake Resort, Pokhara, Nepal
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Himalayas and nestled beside a serene forest lake, our 100-hour Traditional Yoga Teacher Training is a truly transformative experience. Held at the Begnas Lake Resort, this majestic haven was created out of a deep love for pure nature, natural remedies, wholesome food, and the therapeutic power of these elements combined. Here, you’ll immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the Nepali countryside, free from the hustle and bustle of daily life, while cultivating a deeper connection to your practice and self.
Our resort is a hidden paradise, buffered by a lush tropical jungle on three sides and the serene Begnas Lake on the fourth, making it a sanctuary of peace and solitude. Despite its remote feel, it’s conveniently located just 11 km from Pokhara City, making it easily accessible yet perfectly secluded. You can reach the resort by a 10-minute forest walk from Sundari Danda or, for a more serene arrival, take a relaxing boat ride from Begnas Bazar boat station.
During your training, you’ll be welcomed by our warm, local staff who are always ready to ensure your comfort and well-being. Our main restaurant offers a large, airy dining area with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, as well as a cozy bar. For larger groups, we have two conference halls that can accommodate up to 70 people and provide facilities for meals and events for over 100 guests.
In this tranquil setting, you’ll experience the profound peace and beauty of nature, with opportunities to relax by our chemical-free pool, meditate by the pristine lake, or explore the surrounding forest and villages. Our location is perfect for hiking, village walks, mountain biking, paragliding, and trail running, allowing you to connect with nature in every way. And if you ever miss urban life, Pokhara City is just a short drive away.
This yoga teacher training is not just about learning the traditional teachings of yoga—it’s about living them in an environment that supports holistic well-being. It’s an opportunity to reconnect with nature, deepen your practice, and transform your life.
We look forward to welcoming you to this beautiful corner of Nepal, where the wisdom of yoga and the peace of the mountains await you.

When it comes to Yoga, any place that manages to touch you internally , be it mental or emotional , is a good place to learn and to be grateful for and Upasana Yoga School is 1 such place. The people of this place, who manage it, run it & teach here- they are a family and they make you their family by the love & responsibility they share for their students. I'm someone who has done multiple TTCs and yet I was able to learn so much more especially from the Asana classes that are really good, technical & detailed. The excursions that they took us on are going to stay with us forever. The extra activities like sound healing and Kirtan were amazing experiences that were healing on so many different levels. We'll forever be grateful to Ashish ji, Tanu ji, Vinay ji, Rahul ji, Vikas ji, Shivam ji, Deepak, Prithvi, Arushi and the staff for their kindness and support.
Student 1
I always wanted to do a Yoga teacher training course while I was teaching English abroad. My mum introduced me to the wonderful practice of yoga 10 years ago when I was 24 years old. No matter where I am in the world or whatever challenges I face, Yoga has always been my grounding practice. 18 months postpartum, after the birth of my miracle baby boy, I was searching for yoga courses and I gratefully came across the course by Upasana Yoga School. The content by Upasana Yoga School is extremely well spaced out, it is so helpful being a busy mum and I would look forward to my time every day when I would be able to practice an learn. The course is affordable and the guru’s have put through so much knowledge in helping us grow. It’s been a massive transformative journey with understanding myself and every aspect of Yoga. This course is highly recommended and if you have no intention of teaching yoga do this course for yourself. You will gain so much depth and a massive spiritual awakening that is life changing.
Student 2
Just finished the 100H TTC and I am so grateful I choose this school. The teachers were amazing so knowledgeable and helpful. Throughout the course they would answer any question, go over and beyond to help me understand about asanas, yoga philosophy, anatomy, pranayama, meditation and offer their support whenever I needed to. I came here having experience of 3 years doing yoga and even in the first day I was blown away by how much I actually didn't know and how much more knowledge I could get out of this course. The facilities of the school were amazing, the food provided was always super tasty and made with so much care. And most importantly the psychological support and positive reinforcement I got from Ashish, Tanu and all the teachers really made me feel like I was part of their yoga family. If you are looking for not just a yoga class but a life changing experience you should book this school without a second thought.
Student 3
Following the online teacher training. The course is really clear and thorough, very profound. The teachers are very experienced en explain everything very good. It's a very complete course, not only the basics are covered, but they give you so many tips and advice for when you're teaching your own classes. You can ask anything at anytime, always a quick respons. Everyone is so helpful and understanding. I would recommend this course to everyone who wants to take their yoga to a deeper level! I can't wait to follow their courses on location!
Student 4
I'm doing the 200 hours yoga teaching training course and I have been discovering that yoga is a lot more than I thought. It has been a rewarding and enchanting experience. All the teachers instruct very well and are so dedicated to what they do. I recommend the online course for people who can manage their own time, for you can study whenever you want, but there is a necessity to separate a time to the readings and videos, for in the course there is a lot of content, which I'm in love with.
Student 5
A life changing experience to live. Teachers are amazing, highly professional and knowledgeable. If you are planning to create a discipline in your life with yoga, this is the place to be. The food is fully vegetarian and healthy with variety of meals. The institute is run by a family so you feel that in every step of your journey in the course, you have someone to take care of you. The accommodation is clean, hygienic and the cleaning service happens everyday, laundry service is also there in case you need.

Namaste 🙏 I've completed my 200 hours teacher training course at Upasana Yoga School. To begin with, searching for a good yoga institute is a daunting task. I'm super glad that I chose Upasana Yoga School - it is undoubtedly one of the best yoga institutes in Rishikesh. Period. I was awestruck by the sheer hardwork and sincerity by the staff and faculty to make you feel home and comfortable from day one. The teachers are really knowledgeable and are subject matter experts in their respective fields. Food was delicious and apt for yoga practice. The course was nicely balanced including theory and practicals with enough emphasis on teaching methodology. During our day offs, weekend excursions and fun events were organized, which really rejuvenated the mind and induced a sense of camaraderie among students. I would highly recommend Upasana Yoga School. Definitely coming back again in future for 300 hour course. Thanks! 🙂

If your practice is feeling a bit stagnant, Upasana Yoga School is the perfect place to reignite your passion for yoga. With experienced instructors and an open atmosphere, this yoga school provides an environment that promotes growth and self-discovery. In addition, I noticed one amazing thing about this Yoga School: they are not only limited to teachings but also take you on tour in and around Rishikesh. The classes are challenging but accessible, allowing you to take your practice to the next level. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced yogi, Upasana has something for everyone. The beautiful decor and calming energy make it the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day; even the food is delicious. You'll feel welcomed and at home when you step through the doors. With its commitment to providing high-quality instruction and creating an inclusive space, Upasana Yoga School is the perfect place to deepen your yoga practice. At least it was for me.
We prefer to communicate in English since we receive students from across the globe, so it becomes easier to converse in English. But we also love to teach some important words from the Hindi language since it is widely spoken in Rishikesh, like Namaskara (Hello), Dhanyawaad (Thank you), Swagatam (Welcome), and many more.
We provide books, manuals, and other essential study materials, including the cost you pay during the course. We don't charge anything extra.
It depends on the mode of transportation and the place you are coming from. Although we have provided the complete address on the website, you can reach us here by bus, train, cab, and through flight to Dehradun Airport. Rishikesh is 1.30 hours away from Dehradun by taxi or bus.
Yes, we take every necessary measure for our students regarding their health. We have connections with local doctors who are available for immediate assistance, along with a medicare team available 24*7 for our students and teachers.
You can carry all types of gadgets except those that are harmful or a threat to anyone. Mobile phones, laptops, and tabs can be used only during the classes once and if asked by the school's teachers.
There are usually 14-17 students in a single batch of a particular course.
You can apply for a tourist visa. As your chosen school for YTTC, it is our responsibility to guide and help you with visa assistance, but we aren't fully responsible for the same. We are limited to verbal assistance only. But if you apply for an e-tourist visa, that's even better and easy. Apply for a minimum of 30 days of tourist visa if you are applying for individual courses like 200 hour YTTC or 300 hour YTTC, but if you are applying for 500 hour YTTC, you should apply for a minimum of 60 days.
No, we provide a complete yoga kit; all you have to bring
along is the passion for learning & dedication toward
the course.
