InnerWorld Yoga Academy (IWYA) is an ISO 9001:2015 certified yoga teacher training institute in Mumbai, India. It offers Yoga Alliance International (YAI) accredited 200 hour and 500 hour yoga teacher training courses, online on Google Meet and offline at its studio, and has trained 5000+ yoga teachers across India and 12+ countries.
At Inner World Yoga Academy, we believe yoga is far more than physical exercise — it is a complete science of life, self-transformation, and spiritual evolution. Students learn yoga not merely as a physical practice but as a holistic path toward self-awareness, inner peace, and spiritual growth.
Derived from the Sanskrit root Yuj, meaning "union," yoga is the integration of body, breath, mind, and consciousness. Our training follows the principles of Classical Hatha Yoga, where the purpose of practice extends beyond flexibility and fitness.
Yoga Alliance International accredited courses designed to transform practitioners into confident, certified yoga teachers.
Go beyond yoga postures — master teaching methodology, communication skills, class sequencing, and confidently plan a complete yoga session. Beginner to Advance Level.
Deepen your practice and evolve as a teacher with our advanced 500-Hour program — yogic philosophy, therapeutic yoga, meditation, pranayama, subtle energy systems and advanced teaching methodology.
The path of wisdom, self-inquiry, and knowledge — understanding the true nature of the self and reality.
The path of devotion, love, and surrender — cultivating a deep connection with the divine through practice.
The path of selfless service and conscious action — acting without attachment to outcomes for the greater good.
The path of meditation, mental discipline, and mastery of the mind — as taught in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.
You are not simply enrolled in a course — you become part of a living lineage dedicated to preserving and sharing authentic yogic wisdom with integrity. This sacred teacher-student tradition ensures that yoga is transmitted not just as information, but as a living, breathing experience passed from heart to heart.
Our mission is to spread authentic yogic knowledge worldwide and preserve the true teachings of yoga for future generations.
Over the years, we have guided more than 5,000 students worldwide on their yogic journey. Our graduates teach in yoga studios, wellness centers, schools, clinics, corporate environments, and communities across the globe, carrying forward the authentic teachings of yoga.
We strive to create knowledgeable practitioners and teachers who understand yoga beyond the physical practice and are capable of sharing its wisdom responsibly, compassionately, and authentically. Our programs offer world-class training at an affordable fee, allowing students to gain internationally recognized certification without unnecessary financial barriers.
This course is open to sincere seekers from all backgrounds. Prior teaching experience is not required — only a genuine desire to learn and an openness to yogic teachings.
Our certified faculty brings decades of combined experience in classical yoga, yogic philosophy, anatomy, and holistic wellness.
From Mumbai to Melbourne, our graduates carry the practice of yoga into homes, studios, and communities around the world.
Real transformations from real people — our graduates teach across India and worldwide.

5-star experiences from yoga teacher training students of InnerWorld Yoga Academy – in their own words.
Yoga teacher training (YTT or yoga TTC) is a structured course that teaches you to practise and teach yoga safely and confidently. At InnerWorld Yoga Academy it covers asanas with corrections, pranayama, meditation, yoga anatomy and physiology, yogic philosophy and teaching methodology, and finishes with an exam and a Yoga Alliance International certificate.
The 200 hour course at InnerWorld Yoga Academy is a 2-month course for the weekday batch (Tuesday to Saturday), and weekend batches are available for working professionals. The 500 hour master level course is delivered in two semesters; contact the academy for the current schedule.
Online training is valid as training when it is delivered live by qualified faculty, covers the full curriculum, and ends in a proper exam and certificate from an accredited body. InnerWorld Yoga Academy teaches live on Google Meet with the same syllabus, assessments and Yoga Alliance International certificate as offline batches. Whether a particular studio or employer accepts any certificate is their own decision, so check with them first.
Anyone above 18 years of age who is fit to perform physical asanas can join the 200 hour course at InnerWorld Yoga Academy; no prior yoga experience is needed. The 500 hour course requires a 200 hour TTC or equivalent experience.
Attend the classes (100% attendance for theory, 75% for practical), complete the internal assessments, appear for the final theory MCQ exam and the practical assessment, and score at least 120 of 200 marks. A digital Yoga Alliance International certificate is then emailed, typically within 15 to 20 working days.
