- Explain the history, philosophy, and neuroscience of meditation with authority
- Master various meditation techniques from Yogic, Buddhist, and other traditions.
- Learn Pranayama (breathwork) and Yog Nidra for deep relaxation.
- Develop the skills and confidence to lead meditation sessions effectively.

What Our Graduates Say
Rated 4.9 / 5 based on 120+ reviews from students across 40+ countries.
"I was sceptical about learning meditation online, but this surpassed any in-person course I've done. Yogendra Ji has a rare gift — he makes the deepest concepts feel completely accessible."
Sarah M.
100-Hour TTC · UK
"The self-paced format was exactly what I needed as a full-time nurse. I completed the 50-hour program in 6 weeks and immediately started offering meditation to my patients. Transformational."
Anita R.
50-Hour Self-Paced · Canada
"I hold a 200-Hour RYT and always wanted to add meditation formally. The live 100-hour course deepened my own practice enormously and gave me genuine confidence to teach. Worth every cent."
Lena K.

Do I need prior meditation experience?
No previous experience is required. This course is suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced practitioners who wish to structure their knowledge for teaching.
What technology do I need?
You will need a stable internet connection and a device (computer, tablet, or phone) with the Zoom or Google Meet app installed. A quiet space for practice is also highly recommended.
Can I upgrade from a 50-Hour to a 100 or 200-Hour certification later?
