Bangkok , Thailand
Description
The 500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Course in Bangkok, Thailand is a comprehensive advanced-level program designed for dedicated practitioners who wish to complete their full professional yoga education. This training is a complete integration of both 200-hour and 300-hour teacher training, offering a deep, structured, and transformative journey into the traditional science of yoga. Ideal for those who have already completed foundational yoga studies, this course supports students in evolving into highly skilled, confident, and spiritually grounded yoga teachers.
Rooted in classical yogic traditions, the program presents yoga as a holistic way of life, not merely a physical discipline. Students engage in extensive training across asana practice (alignment and adjustment), pranayama, meditation, mudra and bandha, mantra chanting, shatkarmas (yogic cleansing practices), yoga anatomy, yoga philosophy, Ayurveda and nutrition, yoga therapy, and advanced teaching methodology. Each subject is taught progressively, allowing students to integrate knowledge through both practice and experience.
Daily training includes morning meditation and yoga, often practiced outdoors with Yoga in the Park at Lumpini Park, creating a strong connection to nature within the urban environment. The structured daily schedule is balanced with philosophy, anatomy, therapeutic sessions, and optional evening group classes. Weekend retreats and sightseeing activities further enrich the experience, allowing reflection, integration, and cultural exploration alongside intensive study.
Graduates receive a Yoga Alliance USA–certified RYT 500 qualification, along with comprehensive learning materials, prayer items, a complimentary yoga kit, Rudraksha mala, traditional Thai massage, yoga therapy and Ayurvedic massage, retreat experiences, and a 3-month studio membership.

Instructors
Yogi Lalit Ji
Yogi Lalit was born into a Brahmin yogic family in the Himalayas and was introduced to the spiritual path at an early age by his grandfather, Sri Swami Bhola Dutt, a revered yogi devoted to spreading spiritual wisdom in the Himalayan valleys. At just five years old, Yogi Lalit moved to Rishikesh, the world-renowned center of yoga, where he immersed himself in traditional ashram life and advanced studies of Sanskrit scriptures, Vedas, and yogic sciences. His training encompassed Hatha, Raja, Bhakti, Kundalini, Kriya Yoga, Pranayama, Ayurveda, and disciplined spiritual practices, culminating in a Master’s degree (Yoga Acharya) in Yoga Science and recognition through numerous yoga awards. Dedicated to seva (selfless service) and teaching from a young age, Yogi Lalit refined his wisdom under the guidance of great yogis, saints, and acharyas. His mission to share authentic yogic knowledge has guided millions of practitioners worldwide. In 2015, he moved to Bangkok, Thailand, where his work in community education, health, and holistic wellbeing expanded internationally. Through workshops, trainings, and retreats across the globe, Yogi Lalit continues to inspire students toward health, happiness, and spiritual growth, guided by the principle of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam – “the world is one family.”
