STUDIO SINCE
About Lotos Yoga Academy Berlin
Lotos Yoga has been part of Berlin’s yoga community since 2003. Over the years, our Academy has trained more than 500 yoga teachers and grown into a place where practice, education and real teaching experience come together.
Our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training is designed to give you more than a certification. You will deepen your own practice, build a strong foundation in yoga philosophy, anatomy and teaching methodology, and gradually develop the confidence to guide your own classes.
What makes studying at Lotos different is the close connection between our Academy and our three Berlin studios. Throughout your training, you are surrounded by an active yoga community, with opportunities to observe classes, gain real teaching experience and take your first steps as a yoga teacher.
And your journey doesn’t have to end with graduation. There are opportunities to continue teaching at our Lotos studios, develop your skills through further training and grow into our teaching team and community.
Why Choose Our 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Berlin?
Real Teaching Experience
Teaching is an essential part of becoming a confident yoga teacher. During the training, you will gain practical teaching experience in our Berlin studios, giving you the opportunity to put what you learn into practice in a real studio environment.
Personal Mentorship & Individual Feedback
Throughout the training, you will receive personal guidance and individual feedback from our experienced teacher training team. Mentoring supports you in developing your teaching skills, finding confidence in your own voice and growing into your individual path as a yoga teacher.
Learn from Experienced Yoga Teachers
Our training team brings together many years of teaching, studio and teacher-training experience.
You will explore asana, anatomy, teaching methodology, yoga philosophy, pranayama, meditation and more – while learning how to translate this knowledge into meaningful, accessible yoga classes.
Rather than teaching one fixed way of doing things, we encourage you to understand the foundations deeply and develop an authentic approach to teaching.
Learn Inside an Active Yoga Community
Lotos is not only a teacher training school. Our Academy is connected to three active yoga studios in Berlin, with classes, workshops and trainings taking place throughout the week.
This gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in yoga beyond the training weekends, experience different teachers and teaching styles, and become part of an established yoga community.
Online Academy & Flexible Learning
Your learning continues between the training weekends through our Online Academy.
Videos, learning materials, quizzes and additional resources allow you to review important topics at your own pace and deepen what you have learned during the in-person training.
A Path Beyond the 200 Hours
Graduation can be the beginning of the next stage of your journey.
After completing the 200-hour training, there are opportunities to continue gaining teaching experience at Lotos, deepen your knowledge through our Advanced 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training and 500-hour pathways, and develop further as a yoga teacher.
All our teachers have trained with Lotos at different stages of their journey – through our teacher trainings, advanced programs or further education. This ongoing connection between our Academy and studios creates space for continued learning, inspiration and individual growth.
For us, teacher training is not simply about completing a course. It is about creating a foundation from which you can continue to learn, teach and develop your own path as a yoga teacher.
What You Will Learn in Our 200h Yoga Teacher Training
Our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training combines traditional yogic knowledge with the practical skills you need to teach yoga with confidence, clarity and awareness. The training gives you a broad foundation while encouraging you to explore, question and gradually develop your own approach to yoga and teaching.
Asana & Teaching Methodology
Deepen your understanding of asana, alignment and safe practice while learning how to guide others with clarity and confidence. You will explore how to structure a class, give effective instructions, offer variations and adapt your teaching to different students and levels.
Anatomy & Physiology
Develop a practical understanding of the human body and how it relates to yoga practice. Learn about functional anatomy, movement, common physical limitations and how to create a practice that is both mindful and accessible.
Yoga Philosophy & Traditional Teachings
Explore yoga beyond the physical practice through its philosophy, history and traditional teachings. You will discover how ancient yogic concepts can be understood and applied in contemporary life – both in your personal practice and in your teaching.
Pranayama, Meditation & Subtle Practices
Experience pranayama, meditation and other traditional yogic practices as part of your own development. Learn how to integrate breathwork, meditation and moments of stillness naturally and safely into your classes.
Sequencing & Creating Yoga Classes
Learn how to create balanced and meaningful yoga sequences with a clear intention and structure. Rather than relying on fixed sequences, you will develop the tools to create your own classes and adapt them to different levels, needs and teaching situations.
The Art of Teaching
Teaching yoga is more than knowing postures. It is about communication, presence, observation and creating a space in which students can explore their own practice. Through teaching methodology, practical exercises and feedback, you will gradually develop your confidence, communication skills and individual teaching style.
From Knowledge to Real Teaching
Throughout the training, theory and practice are closely connected. What you learn during the course is gradually translated into practical teaching experience, helping you move from understanding yoga to confidently sharing it with others.
Community
Meet interesting people and have great experiences together. In the inspiring yoga community you will find good friends and like-minded people.
Certificate
Become a certified yoga teacher with worldwide recognition from Yoga Alliance International and thus become part of an international yoga community. Open up a world of professional and job opportunities.

FAQ
You don’t need to be an advanced yoga practitioner to join our training. What matters most is a genuine interest in yoga and the motivation to deepen your practice and understanding.
The training builds your knowledge step by step and supports you in discovering your individual strengths, developing your own teaching style and gradually building confidence as a yoga teacher.
Our training is not limited to one single style. You will learn to offer a variety of classes, adapting your teaching to your students’ needs. This includes dynamic and energetic classes as well as slower, more restorative practices. You will also learn to guide meditation, breathing exercises, and pranayama, and to offer alternative practices for people with injuries or physical conditions such as pregnancy, knee issues, high blood pressure, herniated discs, and more.
The course runs for 5 months, meeting one weekend per month on Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM. Each day includes a one-hour lunch break and shorter breaks for snacks, drinks, and connecting with your classmates. In addition, we have one Academy Class per week, focusing on feedback rounds and professional aspects of teaching yoga. You can join this class in the studio, follow it live online, or watch the recording later through our Online Academy. We also offer Tutorial Classes, providing space to clarify theoretical topics, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of the course content.

There is no need to worry, as any questions you have can be clarified during the monthly Tutorial Classes. This ensures that if there is anything you do not understand, you will have the opportunity to review it thoroughly with your teachers.
