Adwait Yoga School · Learn with a teacher

Practice first. Understanding follows.
Mindfulness is the practice of noticing present-moment experience with curiosity and less automatic judgment. In a course, that means working directly with the breath, body, thoughts and emotions—not simply collecting definitions or trying to keep the mind blank.
Our online mindfulness courses combine guided practice, discussion and opportunities to apply what you learn. You can join to develop your own meditation routine or follow a progressive pathway into mindfulness teaching skills. The aim is a practice you understand well enough to use thoughtfully in everyday life.
Explore the difference between mindfulness and meditation if you are deciding where to begin.

From understanding to application
The curriculum brings together contemplative practice, reflection and teaching methodology. The emphasis changes as you progress; the individual course pages provide the level-specific syllabus.
Explore what mindfulness is, how attention wanders and how to begin again without turning practice into a struggle. Develop a language for describing your experience clearly.
Practice breath awareness, body scan and mindful movement. Bring attention to ordinary activities such as walking, eating and listening, so learning extends beyond formal meditation.
Notice the difference between an experience and the story you build around it. Explore self-compassion, responses to difficult emotions and a more considered way of relating to others.
Study practices such as STOP, RAIN and awareness of sound alongside the approaches covered in your level. Understand the purpose and limits of a technique before offering it to someone else.
Develop skills for giving understandable instructions, facilitating reflection and responding thoughtfully to questions. Teaching methodology and practicum become part of the learning pathway.
Explore responsibility, respectful communication and the boundaries of a mindfulness teacher’s role. Consider how ongoing personal practice supports the way you work with other people.
Depending on your completed level, you will work toward establishing a consistent practice, describing core mindfulness principles, choosing suitable foundational exercises and preparing guided sessions within your experience. Progress comes through participation, personal practice and assessment—not a promise of instant mastery.
Live online. Personally guided.
Attend two-hour live sessions, Monday to Saturday.
Learn with an instructor in real time rather than relying only on prerecorded lessons. Guided exercises give you direct experience; discussion helps you examine what you noticed and ask questions about the practice.
Between classes, return to the exercises and reflection tasks introduced in your level. Confirm any additional independent practice or practicum requirements before enrolling; these are separate from the daily live session.
Tell the school your city or time zone when asking about a batch. Confirm the exact start and finish times in your local time before making a payment. Daylight-saving changes may affect the time difference between the United States and India.
Ask about recordings or a missed-session arrangement before booking; availability should be confirmed for your batch.
Choose with confidence
The foundation level suits adults beginning mindfulness, people returning to meditation and yoga practitioners who want a more structured awareness practice. Later levels are for students ready to develop their practice and teaching skills further.
The school’s minimum enrollment age is 18. Level 2 follows Level 1; Level 3 follows Levels 1 and 2. Discuss previous training with us if you are unsure which level is appropriate.
You do not need a plan to teach to begin learning. If your goal is personal practice, focus first on developing a routine you can sustain. If you intend to guide others, examine the teaching methodology, practicum, ethics and assessment requirements as carefully as the meditation content.
This is Adwait Yoga School’s three-level mindfulness training. A short course should not be assumed to be equivalent to a separate MBSR, MBCT or clinical teacher-training pathway. Choose the qualifications and supervised experience appropriate to the work you intend to do.
Meet your lead trainer
Sri Yogi Anand is the founder of Adwait Yoga School and the lead trainer identified for this mindfulness program. The course brings together his teaching in meditation, mindful awareness and the practical application of contemplative learning.
Adwait Yoga School is run by Adwait Foundation and is based in India, with online learning available to international students. Before you enroll, ask who will teach your batch and how guided practice, questions and assessment will be supported.

Tuition and the mandatory course text are included. A certificate is awarded after successful completion of the applicable attendance and assessment requirements. Confirm how your learning materials and certificate will be provided for your selected format.
The offline tuition figures above do not include travel, transfers, food or accommodation. Ask for a separate residential quote if you need these services, and confirm the training location before making travel arrangements.
Participation matters
To receive the certificate for your level, meet the school’s attendance and assessment criteria. The published requirements include at least 90% attendance and a minimum 40% score in the relevant written and practical assessment.
Attend actively, review the course material and complete the practice work assigned by your instructor. Ask how missed sessions, assessment and practicum are handled before your batch starts.
Your certificate records completion of Adwait Yoga School’s course level. It does not by itself establish a clinical license, a university degree, external accreditation or permission to practice every form of therapy.
If you plan to work with an employer, professional association or particular group, check their requirements for training, experience and supervision. We encourage a clear distinction between mindfulness education and clinical treatment.
Your next step
Review the syllabus and prerequisites. Decide between live Zoom classes and offline training in India.
Ask about the start date, Monday–Saturday timetable and local time-zone conversion. Confirm the fee and any independent practice requirements.
Complete the registration form. The school’s enrollment terms require a 30% advance deposit, with the balance due one day before the course begins.
The advance registration deposit is non-refundable. In an emergency, the school may permit a transfer to another scheduled batch within 12 months. The course’s published terms do not provide refunds, credits or transfers for cancellation during or after the course has started. Review the refund policy and confirm the terms that apply to your booking before payment.
Before you book
Online training sessions are live via Zoom. You learn with an instructor in real time. Ask the school separately about recording access or missed sessions; these arrangements should be confirmed for your batch.
Classes run Monday to Saturday. Each daily training session lasts two hours. Confirm your batch’s exact start time before enrolling.
Level 1 takes one week, Level 2 takes two weeks and Level 3 takes three weeks. These are separate course levels with Monday–Saturday classes and two-hour daily sessions. Ask about any additional independent practice and practicum requirements.
Yes, you can attend the live online training from the United States. Send your city or time zone when contacting the school so you can confirm the local class time, including any daylight-saving difference.
Level 1 is the beginner pathway. Level 2 is intended for students who have completed Level 1, and Level 3 follows the first two levels. Contact the school to discuss equivalent previous training rather than assuming direct entry to an advanced level.
Live Zoom tuition is US$250 for Level 1, US$450 for Level 2 and US$650 for Level 3. Offline tuition is US$299, US$499 and US$699 respectively. Residential services are separate from the offline tuition shown here.
A certificate for your completed level is awarded after you meet Adwait Yoga School’s attendance and assessment requirements. It is a school-issued course certificate. Confirm any separate professional or employer requirements for your intended work.
No equivalence should be assumed. This page describes Adwait Yoga School’s three-level program. MBSR, MBCT and other professional pathways can have different prerequisites, supervision and assessment requirements.
