Online Trainings since 2017

In 2017, we launched online versions of our vinyasa yoga teacher trainings to support students who wanted high-quality learning but could not travel to our ashrams.

 I was intrigued by the outcome, so we created this online version to see where the virtual journey would take us. When we announced it on social media, we were bombarded with negative comments; some believed it was impossible to learn yoga online.

The outcome surprised us all. Within the first six months, more than a thousand practitioners had already enrolled in our online training program.

Hundreds of five-star reviews gave us confidence, and regular feedback helped us refine the online course to make it entirely user-friendly, with added value for our students.

Meet Your Teacher,

Dr. Ram Jain, PhD (Yoga)

(ERYT-500 & YACEP with 50,000+ hours of teaching experience)

I am beyond grateful for the gift of yoga & meditation. My greatest pleasure has been helping people transform their lives with the science, practice, and principles of yoga for over two decades.

My yoga & meditation journey began aged eight at a Vedic school in India. I was trained in yoga asana in the tradition of Swami Sivananda by traditional teachers from his lineage. As a result, I have a solid foundation in scriptures, including Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Yoga Sutras (to name a few).

My deep wonder for knowledge also led me to study modern sciences like anatomy, physiology, and western philosophy with pioneer teachers of new innovations.

Growing up in India, I assisted many yoga & meditation teachers. However, I always felt something was lacking in how teachers taught. You can be a skillful practitioner and still need to learn how to teach others.

I made it my mission to create a new global standard for yoga & meditation teacher training.

  • To help practitioners like you deepen your understanding of meditation.
  • To provide a unique blend of traditional and modern approaches.
  • To give you the practical skills essential to train and teach capably.

I see yoga as a way to master the five senses, so I named the ashram 'Arhanta Yoga,' the yoga to master the five senses!

At Arhanta, we don't just teach yoga. We teach you how to reach your potential, deepen your knowledge, build your confidence, and take charge of your life.

absolutely great course for myself and teacher training!

I am very grateful for this meditation course. Although I´ve been teaching Yoga and a lot of Pranayam for the last few years, I learned a lot for myself and for my teaching in the field of meditation. This course makes it so much easier for me to explain and make meditation accessable for my students. Very well structured and the teaching from both of you wonderful. Thank you!

interesting meditation teacher training

I haven't completed the training yet, but so far I found the subjects AND the way they have been presented outstanding and motivating. Classes are sometimes short, sometimes long. Each subject is well explained and documented in pdf-files. Even the Quiz moments are set up in such a way that there's much to learn. The team who set up this course was clearly passionate about meditation.

by David Peirsman


Great course, very profound and deep knowledge of the teachers

I just finished the Meditation Teacher Training. It was such a great course. The teachers have a very profound and deep knowledge and know how to transport this knowledge to the students in a very smooth ans easy way. Learning the meditations and lectures is made much easier by video-lessons plus scripts. This course makes me feel that I'm now ready to teach meditation!

by Andreas Großkopf


More than there is

I experienced this course as becoming more aware of meditation. Those who want to meditate should certainly first know what it exactly means and in this course there is a clear explanation. I want to thank the trainers very much...Aum Shanti!

by Anita Basdew


A Good understanding of meditation

What is meditation and why should you do it? By following this course I came to understand that meditation is not quiting the mind. It is deeper than that, it is knowing thyself. Meditation is not a something that you do, but more a state, a knowing. This course guide you to this state. Wonderful course!

by Bram Aardenburg
