Join our 22 Day Teacher Training with Aerial Yoga in Ubud Tegalalang, Bali to become a certified multi-style yoga instructor.

I stayed at an accommodation that could have been a bit cleaner and was located on a busy street, so it was a bit loud. I also faced some small language barriers but overall it was great value for money and I would definitely return! Our main teachers Caroline and Koko are humble, patient, and kind people with a lot of knowledge. We started with basics like sun salutations and main poses and then moved on to the good alignment of yoga poses. We also delved into the history and philosophy of yoga. Be prepared for more physical movements in your first week!

We got to experience Arial yoga with teacher Ida and Restorative Yoga with teacher Lisa, which was a big plus for me. The school provided us with two printed books and delicious vegetarian food and fruit juices. The yoga studio was always clean and the view of the pool and jungle was incredible!

We were also given transportation to Ubud center twice a week and even had a one-day trip to visit attractions around Ubud. It was a nice break from our yoga studies. Thank you for this amazing experience, I’m so glad I chose Kapha Yoga School.

I went to Teacher Coco’s yoga school in Ubud, Bali. They have friendly teaching methods, a clean yoga studio, and serve delicious meals. The school is located in a beautiful location. Teacher Sari, Teacher Mulia, and the staff, including a guy named Didin, taught me well and kept the homestay safe. I would love to visit again next time I’m in Ubud.

I suggest making the Aerial yoga part a workshop session rather than including teaching, especially for those who are new to it. Teaching Aerial yoga after only one day of practice could be risky since it has a higher potential for injury. It’s tough to cover everything in detail with limited time, so I recommend either more practice teaching or simply focusing on learning the poses. I really enjoyed my experience at Kapha Yoga’s YTT program. The structure was great and the teachers Mulia, Koko, and Ririt were amazing. The small group of 6 was perfect. We started teaching from day one, which definitely boosted our confidence for tests. The studio had beautiful views, especially during sunsets. The accommodation was simple but clean with everything you need. There’s a laundry shop nearby too. I highly recommend this training, especially for the fair price.

The housing accommodations at the retreat center are very basic. You can’t leave the air conditioning on during the day, so the rooms get really humid and your clothes could end up getting moldy. It wasn’t the most relaxing environment to stay in for 3 weeks. I think they’re still working on improving the housing, so hopefully it will be better in about a year. The whole area is full of construction, but it’s not too bothersome during the day. I think it will look amazing once it’s all done.

The course is packed with a ton of information in a short amount of time. It would have been nice to have group study sessions and fun ways to remember all the routines together. The views from the yoga area are absolutely stunning!

The food at the retreat center was excellent, with lots of healthy options and delicious fresh juices. The meals were always served on time and made with fresh ingredients. Mulia, our yoga teacher, was fantastic. She was patient with us and taught us all the essentials of yoga.

Koko made sure we were happy with our rooms, the food, and the way of teaching. He really went above and beyond. On the first day, Koko and the lovely Estee talked about our team being our new “family,” which I found a bit strange at first since we were all strangers. But it didn’t take long for me to realize they were right. We became so close in such a short time.

The teaching was thorough, and they always encouraged questions. It was intense, but that’s what I expected. The teachers were incredibly knowledgeable and skilled at their craft. They were always willing to help.

Everyone on the team was so accommodating. They were always there to assist us. I’ve gained so much knowledge and I’m really excited to start teaching yoga. This experience has truly changed my life. ❤️

I had such a great time there! Everything exceeded my expectations. Koko was always extremely helpful. The studio is really nice and the food was delicious. Caroline and Esti, the teachers, are simply amazing! I <3 them!

The yoga teacher training offer excellent quality, delivering all the important information in a concise manner. The yoga school boasts fantastic surroundings with an outdoor studio and a pool, leaving nothing to be desired. Koko, the instructor, is always available to answer any questions and the documentation provided is thorough. I highly recommend this teacher training to anyone looking to teach, as it prepares you extremely well for the role. The accommodation may be simple, but it offers all the necessary equipment for the required conditions. The food is delivered fresh and you can indulge in delicious Balinese cuisine. The evenings in Ubud allow you to explore the town and enjoy your free time. Additionally, having a laundry and a pharmacy right next to the studio is extremely convenient. And the best part? The price-performance ratio is truly outstanding!

Everything was incredible. It was an experience to learn and grow personally. In addition, I met incredible people and created a family atmosphere. All the staff were very attentive and friendly!

I’m so thrilled with my 200h yoga teacher training in Ubud, Bali! The teachers were absolutely incredible, and they created such a positive and supportive learning environment. I was surrounded by amazing people and the most breathtaking nature. Plus, there were so many fun activities to do and the food was delicious and healthy. Honestly, everything was even better than I expected. I’m so grateful for this experience that has truly transformed me. Immersing myself in the peaceful atmosphere of Ubud, Bali for my 200h yoga teacher training was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The instructors didn’t just pass on their extensive knowledge, but their genuine passion shone through in every session, making them truly enriching. The bond we formed during the training felt like a family, enhancing the overall experience. The stunning natural surroundings, coupled with the exciting activities, gave it a perfect balance. And the nourishing food added another layer of positivity, making this journey truly holistic and life-changing. The magical energy of Ubud stayed with me throughout, making this training an unforgettable chapter in my life. I’m overflowing with gratitude!

I have nothing to complain about. The accommodation rooms, although dated, were clean. It was just a bed to sleep in, but it was actually very comfy! As soon as I arrived, it felt like home and was very welcoming. The studio and school are located in a beautiful spot, right next to the jungle with amazing views that I never got tired of. The food was always different, tasty, and presented beautifully. I even took a few breaks from learning to enjoy the pool. The most important thing was that I felt incredibly lucky to be learning from Koko. He has a wealth of experience and knowledge, and he’s very encouraging. Even as a beginner, he made me feel like it was possible and helped me grow in confidence. I can’t recommend this school enough! It’s also amazing considering the cost compared to other schools.

In March 2023, I booked the training and agreed on a start date of 1-22 October. However, in July, I was asked if I could shift my start date to 9 Oct. I couldn’t change my flight because it would be too costly. Although I had concerns about how the training would work and the idea of training alone, I was assured that I would be joining classes of both the current group and the new group starting on the 9th. Despite my reservations, I decided to trust the process.

The day before I was supposed to start, I was informed that I would be receiving private tuition from a teacher at the studio. It sounded good, but it turned out that the assigned teacher had limited English skills and lacked experience in teaching. It was a challenging and frustrating few weeks for both of us. Being shouted at multiple times was not something I appreciated, especially when the teacher couldn’t communicate clearly. It was evident that the teacher wasn’t enthusiastic about teaching and seemed uncomfortable in their role. On the positive side, the location was beautiful and I met some wonderful people, both fellow trainees and staff. The food and juices were enjoyable as well.

Overall, I was disappointed with the training. While the course materials were excellent, the actual delivery of the training was disjointed, and the quality of teaching from my assigned tutor was subpar. However, I must mention that Caroline was an amazing tutor – professional, competent, and caring. The same goes for Koko, though I hope that future attention is focused more on the students’ needs rather than the studio’s needs.

Additionally, I would suggest that all students receive a basic orientation upon arrival at the studio. This would help familiarize trainees with their surroundings and provide information about teaching days, daily topics, and days off.

The construction going on the whole time really ruined the ambience, which was a shame. Unfortunately, there were some contradictions in teaching between the teachers and a major difference in the level of attention they gave to students. We were taught about the importance of making students feel safe and comfortable in their practice, but in aerial yoga training, many of us had to ask for adjustments to avoid hitting our heads, which was extremely unsafe. The teacher would physically move students into positions they weren’t comfortable with and didn’t provide clear direction when asked. It would have been so much better if we had an induction and introduction/closing for the group instead of relying on WhatsApp messages. On the bright side, the school was located outside of the busy Ubud center and had a stunning backdrop. I learned a lot and got plenty of teaching practice, all while being surrounded by a fantastic group of people!

I want people to have a better experience, so I must say that the teaching was quite incoherent and difficult to follow due to the language barrier. The continuous construction noise on-site was slightly intrusive on our time. Moreover, there was a real lack of introduction or orientation. I feel like safety was not taken into account during the aerial yoga sessions, as the focus seemed to be more on taking pictures rather than ensuring we had a good experience. On the positive side, I met amazing people and truly enjoyed my time here. Not to mention, my alignment improved and my own practice deepened. Plus, the sunsets were absolutely beautiful. I must also mention that it was the cheapest option I could find in Indonesia.

Here are some important things to consider before deciding to attend this training:

1. If you’re more interested in deepening your own yoga practice rather than teaching beginners, this training may not be the best fit for you. Our focus is on learning how to teach beginners, with a lot of practice and emphasis on basic poses, pranayama, and alignment.

2. This training assumes that you already have some experience with yoga and are familiar with the basic poses. While our teachers provide adjustments and assistance with alignment, if you’ve never done yoga before, it’s recommended that you gain some prior experience before attending.

3. If you’re looking for a luxurious experience, it’s important to note that this training is affordably priced in comparison to others. The accommodations are simple, with rooms being cleaned once a week, and it’s expected that you clean up after yourself in the studio. If this doesn’t meet your expectations, you may want to consider a more expensive option. However, I personally found the value to be amazing for the price and exactly what I was looking for.

That being said, if you’re genuinely interested in learning how to teach yoga, have previous experience with yoga, want an affordable training of excellent quality, and don’t mind simple accommodations, then I highly recommend going for it! Let me tell you more about what to expect:

– Teaching style: We focused heavily on practicing teaching from day one, which I found to be extremely beneficial.

– Quality of teaching: The teachers and director are truly incredible and knowledgeable. They are kind, helpful, and provide valuable advice. They are also open to feedback and continuously strive to improve the training.

– Studio: The studio itself is absolutely beautiful, exactly as shown in the pictures. During breaks, you can enjoy the great pool and breathtaking view. Additionally, you’ll have access to individual storage space (without a lock) and a shared fridge. There are also free coffee, tea, and drinking water available for refilling your bottles.

– Location: Situated in a peaceful area, the studio is a 30-minute drive from Ubud. Twice a week, a driver will take you to town for some free time. There is also a convenience store just 5 minutes away, a coffee plantation to visit within a 3-minute walk, and the stunning Tegallalang rice fields just 15 minutes away.

– Food: The food provided during the training is not only delicious but also of high-quality. You’ll receive individual plates rather than a buffet. The meals are served on reusable baskets and banana leaves instead of plastic, showing their commitment to sustainability. And the portion sizes are perfect!

– Schedule: While the training is intense, I found the schedule to be perfectly balanced, allowing for enough breaks and time off.

– Accommodation: The rooms, located just a 2-minute walk from the studio, are basic but comfortable. I stayed in room 3, which was the more affordable option for a single room. It had everything I needed, including a single bed, a jug of drinking water, a wardrobe, a private bathroom with a shower and toilet, and an efficient air conditioning system.

I hope this information helps you make an informed decision about attending the training. If you meet the criteria I mentioned earlier, I believe you’ll have a fantastic experience!

Is there anyone who can help Teacher Koko manage the studio so that she can focus solely on teaching? It would be great to have someone to assist since there are still many yoga asanas she wants to learn from other teachers. The studio itself has a beautiful and organized environment, ensuring ultimate comfort and enjoyment. The yoga instruction is top-notch, making it the perfect place for both relaxation and learning the art of becoming a yoga teacher.

I absolutely loved the entire experience! Everything just fell into place as it was meant to. I’ll definitely be recommending this training to others. Thank you so much, Koko, Mulia, and Rina! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I didn’t expect it to be like this. I should have done more research and gotten more information before signing up. I guess that goes for all the yoga teacher training courses offered on this site. Actually, I ended up leaving before the course ended and without the famous yoga certificate, which I don’t really care about anyway. If you’re over 40, I suggest really thinking about whether these kind of yoga teacher trainings are right for you. The workload and schedule are designed for younger, trained individuals. However, I did gain some yoga skills (specifically vinyasa flow) and a basic understanding of how to structure a yoga class. It was good for personal development and gaining some insights.

The accommodations at Uma Dawa Resort were situated near the owner’s private residence where construction was taking place, causing a lot of noise and disruption at times. However, I assume this won’t be a long-lasting issue. The schooling experience was made incredibly easy for me as there were three different teachers who catered to different learning styles. They were all very friendly, positive, and encouraging. I truly believe that choosing this place for my teacher training was the best decision I could have made. I received full support throughout my time here, and to top it off, we even had an organized day out that was a lot of fun. I have no hesitation in recommending Koko’s school to others. The learning materials we received over the course of 21 days were of great value for the money. What I particularly liked was the convenient access to Ubud central from where we stayed, which was just a 30-minute walk away. It allowed us to enjoy the restaurants, beautiful shops, and the overall vibrant atmosphere of the place.

I had an amazing time at the retreat. I learned so many things, not just about yoga, but also about life. The teachers worked really hard and were very patient. They listened to our feedback and made changes right away. The food was delicious and healthy. The groups were small, which was great. Sometimes, I wished there was a bit more structure. But I believe that the success of a learning retreat ultimately comes down to oneself. The retreat provides all the tools you need, but it’s up to you to use them in your learning journey and in becoming a yoga teacher.

The studio is so beautiful! It’s literally right next to the jungle. The view is just mind-blowing and the pool and outdoor area are absolutely perfect for our yoga sessions and meditations.

Koko was amazing at always responding to our feedback right away and he really went above and beyond to make sure our stay was super comfortable. And the best part? We got to use the scooters for free, which made it a breeze to explore the surrounding areas and the center of Ubud.

Honestly, I felt so incredibly calm and centered during my entire stay here. I can’t recommend this YTT enough! Plus, it’s also the most affordable one I came across in all of Bali!

I’m so grateful and filled with gratitude! This journey has given me a deeper purpose and I’m excited for what’s to come in helping others live healthier and more meaningful lives. I want to express my thanks to Bali Kapha and all my teachers – Koko, Esti, Lisa, and Sari. Because of them, I now have a radiant light inside me that shines brighter than ever. And to my amazing classmates, thank you for sharing this journey with me, for being vulnerable, and for showing immense courage. I truly believe we were brought together not by chance, but to learn and grow from one another. One of my favorite parts of the experience was the yoga studio itself, with its stunning surroundings, peaceful atmosphere, and beautiful aesthetic.

The addition of restorative and Aerial Yoga was awesome! It would be perfect if there was also a sound healing class to complete the experience. ?

I also want to express my gratitude for the incredible trip to Ubud – Kintamani, Pura Tirta Empul, Pura Gunung Kawi, Pura Goa Gajah, and Tegenungan Waterfall. It was a major highlight for me since I lived in Bali for 10 years and never got the chance to visit these places. So, thank you!

As I pray for a bright future ahead and wish everyone good luck in everything they do, I want to say a big thank you to Bali Kapha Yoga School for providing me with the best three weeks of my life!

Before joining this training, I had thoroughly examined the program and asked via message if the spiritual aspect of yoga was truly present in the training because I did not want to join a “best Instagram picture” school, and I was assured that it was indeed present, so I shouldn’t worry. However, in my opinion, the spiritual aspects were barely touched upon and not practiced much in everyday life.

Furthermore, despite the visible reluctance of people in my group, we were constantly being filmed and photographed, which wasn’t necessarily pleasant. (I had mentioned in the disclaimer at the beginning of the training that I wanted to have a say in the photos of me used on social media, but that was not respected). In short, it was a technically very interesting training, but it was difficult for me to stay focused on the deeper implications of yoga.

I really appreciated the technical advice on performing different asanas with proper alignment to avoid any risk of injury. The proposed structure for building a vinyasa or power class was very clear and will allow me to create my own classes in a structured way.

The teaching methods of the three instructors were complementary (I would like to emphasize that Esti was fantastic both in terms of teaching and kindness), the equipment was in great condition, and the written materials were detailed and of high quality.

The location was wonderful (Uma Dawa hotel in Ubud), but it seems that we were the last session to benefit from it because future trainings will be held in a new studio in Ubud.

I was in a group of eight people, which was the ideal size for me because I wouldn’t have liked being in a huge group or, on the contrary, just with one or two other people.

Overall, I am happy with my training because the quality-to-price ratio was very good, the location was marvelous, my group was really pleasant, and the teachers/assistants were attentive in trying to satisfy everyone’s needs.

I completed the 22-day Teacher Training (200 hours) and I’m very satisfied with the program. The resort is absolutely stunning and the overall value for money is unbeatable. The trainers are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Even though teaching and learning in English was a real challenge for me at times, they were very understanding. Olin, Koko, and Lisa are all amazing teachers who genuinely love teaching and are passionate about yoga philosophy. The training provided us with a wealth of extensive knowledge. I wish everyone there nothing but the best.

PS: The meals are no longer served in plastic containers, but in paper boxes and beautifully arranged in small leaf bowls. The quality is definitely top-notch. In addition to the three main meals, they also provide a serving of fruit in the evening and a fresh juice.

I absolutely loved everything about it! The food, accommodation, and the staff at the resort were all incredible. Our classes and daily schedule were fantastic, although the hours were long, they were definitely worth it! The teaching methods were top-notch, thanks to our three amazing teachers – Esti, Lisa, and Koko. Each of them brought their own special touch, being patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. They always made sure we were taken care of. And let’s not forget about Koko, who planned an unforgettable day trip for our group in the end! They all went above and beyond to make our experience truly amazing.

There’s really not much to complain about… maybe if we could have stable hot water for showering at night. Koko and the resort managers have been helpful with the situation, but it’s ultimately a facility issue. Other than that, everything has been fantastic!

Koko, the main yoga instructor, has a real passion for yoga and teaching. You should ask him about his age, you’ll be amazed!

I love the flexibility of the course. It’s just me and my friend in the learning cohort, so the coursework is tailored to our level, needs, and travel schedule. It’s perfect for us.

The folks at ISY have been accommodating with my gluten soy dairy intolerance. They’ve been able to provide me with delicious meals that fit my dietary restrictions.

I appreciate that I’m learning more about yoga as a whole, not just treating it as an exercise.

And the best part is, the price is very reasonable for the quality of the experience. It’s beyond what I expected.

I just have a small complaint about the food. After three weeks of having rice two to three times a day, I’m getting a bit tired of it. But it’s really a minor complaint because the meals are well-cooked and they make an effort to vary it, so it’s not the same every day. Unfortunately, the meals are always served cold. But in the end, we are getting healthy and tasty food, and we’re never hungry at night. 🙂

The YTT 200 was a fantastic experience for me. At first, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to “just learn” more about yoga, and a 200-hour training might be too much if I didn’t plan on becoming a teacher. But I highly recommend giving it a try because it turned out to be such a great time, and now I unexpectedly have a desire to teach yoga. 🙂

One of the best things about the program was that the groups were small (we were only four girls). This gave us plenty of time to ask the teachers questions and have plenty of practice in teaching each other. It also focused on teaching and learning the proper alignment in yoga and asanas, which was really beneficial.

The hotel is located in a beautiful spot. During lunch breaks, we have the option to take a quick swim in the large pool. The rooms are nice, and there are many pleasant areas on the property.

I want to thank everyone for this wonderful experience, especially the amazing teachers and the other three lovely girls. 🙂 I have a feeling that I will often look back and remember this special time.

The space for yoga and accommodation is amazing, and the teachers are incredibly friendly and kind to everyone. If you encounter any problems, they will gladly assist you.

I can’t eat soy or gluten, so I asked my instructor to change the protein source in my meals. They told me that yogis are vegetarian and that’s just the way it is. I ended up feeling weak and sick, and had to order separate food from the resort. Thankfully, a new instructor came who understood and fixed the issue within a day. It was great that it got resolved quickly, but frustrating that the initial instructor didn’t help when they knew about my sickness.

If you have any dietary requirements, make sure to clearly explain them to Koko, the owner, from the beginning. He was fine with the diet change. Looking back, I should have asked him first instead of going through an instructor. The instructors were really into yoga and the small class size allowed for lots of attention and correction. I saw a lot of improvement in my practice during this course. The resort itself was nice and quiet. The theory portion covered a wide range of topics, including chakras and medical terminology.

I don’t have any complaints at all. The topics are spot on and they deliver all the knowledge you need to become a yoga teacher or simply enhance your own daily practice. The team of teachers is truly outstanding; they inspire me greatly. This program is giving me lifelong lessons that genuinely motivate me to become a better person.

The food was wrapped in plastic, including plastic cutlery and drinks in plastic containers. I believe there are better options for respecting our environment 🙂 Maybe we can also have 2-3 different fixed days off so we can plan something on our own to relax and clear our heads.

The breakfast options, specifically having fruits in the mornings, were great. The teachers were all incredibly patient, beautiful, and respectful. I appreciated that we switched spots for teaching. The afternoon practice every Monday was held outside of the resort, which was nice. Being a small group was beneficial for learning. The morning meditation was a great way to start the day. The support from all the teachers was so loving.

Overall, the content of the entire teacher training was really good and profound! After completing this training, you will definitely feel well-prepared to enter the world of teaching and find your own path.

Unfortunately, there was only one more classmate present at the training. As a result, we miss out on the exchange of different participants and situations. During the training, they emphasized teaching a lot. After the session, I definitely feel capable of instructing yoga to beginners.
