Curriculum
The syllabus follows Yoga Alliance standards, taught through the lens of Ayurveda. You practise every day, then learn to teach what you practise.
Request the full prospectusHatha for alignment and stability, breath-led Vinyasa, standing poses, backbends, inversions and balances. Pranayama including Ujjayi and Nadi Shodhana, meditation and the Shatkarma cleansing practices.
Intelligent sequencing, clear verbal cueing, finding your own teaching voice, safe and consensual hands-on adjustments, and modifying for mixed-level classes.
The skeletal and muscular systems for safe teaching and injury prevention, plus the subtle body: chakras, nadis and the five pranas, co-designed with an Ayurvedic doctor.
Patanjali's Yoga Sutras and the Eight Limbs, how to weave philosophy into class, yogic lifestyle and the ethics of teaching.
Live mock teaching with real feedback, video analysis, peer review and classroom-management drills, so you can teach from day one.

Your lead trainer
With over 15 years in Dubai's yoga community, Dr. Kasi is one of very few educators who is both a trained Ayurvedic physician and an E-RYT 500. He has guided 610+ students onto teaching paths.
His teaching draws on Tamil Shaiva and Tantric traditions, the Siddha lineage and functional anatomy, delivered in a way that fits modern life in Dubai.

Graduates speak
“I came in as a corporate executive with zero intention to teach. I left as someone who completely reimagined my life. Dr. Kasi doesn't just teach yoga — he changes how you see yourself.”
“The Ayurvedic approach to anatomy is something I've never encountered in any other TTC. It completely transformed how I cue and sequence my classes. Worth every dirham.”
Yoga Alliance reviews
“I have truly enjoyed every part of my training journey with 1000 Petaled Lotus Yoga Academy. I cherish and deeply appreciate all the knowledge, wisdom, and experience that we received throughout the course.
I feel incredibly grateful that I found this beautiful studio and had the opportunity to learn from Dr. Kasi and the entire team . Their dedication, kindness, knowledge, and passion for yoga made this training such a meaningful experience for me. Every day brought something new — beautiful practices, deeper understanding, valuable teachings, and opportunities to connect not only with yoga, but also with myself. The knowledge they shared has given me a much stronger foundation and has inspired me to continue growing on my own yoga journey. I am especially grateful for the support and encouragement we received throughout the entire course. Whenever I had questions or needed guidance, I felt supported and welcomed. It made the whole learning experience feel personal, safe, and truly special. This training was much more than simply learning how to teach yoga. It was a journey of self-discovery, discipline, connection, and personal growth. I leave the course with so much gratitude in my heart and with knowledge that I know I will carry with me for many years to come. Thank you, Dr. Kasi and Madam Rachita, for sharing your knowledge, your energy, and your love for yoga with us. I am truly grateful to have been part of this journey and to have found such a beautiful yoga family. With love and gratitude. 🪷🤍”
“Outstanding Yoga Teacher & Mentor I had the privilege of completing my yoga teacher training under an exceptional head teacher Kasi who made the entire experience truly meaningful and transformative.
What stood out most was the depth of knowledge, professionalism, patience, and genuine passion for yoga. Every session was thoughtfully delivered, combining strong technical guidance with a deeper understanding of yoga, its philosophy, alignment, breath, and mindful practice. What I appreciated most was the ability to create a supportive learning environment where we were encouraged to ask questions, challenge ourselves, and grow with confidence. The guidance and constructive feedback helped me develop not only as a yoga practitioner, but also as a future teacher. I am genuinely grateful for the knowledge, discipline, inspiration, and confidence I gained throughout the training. I would highly recommend this teacher to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and inspiring yoga educator. Thank you for being such an important part of my yoga journey. 🙏🧘♂️✨”
“The program is extremely flexible for this reason very convenient to combine with taking care of the family. The teachers have a lot of experiences in teaching yoga, yoga philosophy, yoga therapy and Ayurvedic practices.
The way of sharing this information is very accessible and interesting. In the first line I learned a lot for myself as a yoga practitioner and secondary the school gave an excellent base to start teaching. Thanks to 1000 Petaled Lotus Yoga Academy for supporting me in my journey of becoming a yoga teacher.”
“Dr.Kasi is very professional , always willing to help and aid with all questions. His 200 hour training course is tailored for everyone and can be adapted to suit all working professionals.”
“Thousand Petaled Lotus is a fantastic yoga school and studio. I have learned so much from Dr Kasi and his wonderful team, and they continue to mentor me even years after training. The community I connected with during this time still hold strong.
I highly recommend Thousand Petaled Lotus to those seeking their teacher training, and also to experienced yogis and novices alike.”
“The 200hr TTC at 1000 Petaled Lotus was truly life changing. Dr. Kasi and his team are a wealth of knowledge and experience. They are professional, kind and most importantly patient. The day the course ended, my heart broke.
Their guidance felt like a warm blanket. And although they prepared us for this moment, I wished the course never ended. It truly changed my life and the team will forever be in my heart. Will definitely be joining another TTC with them soon.”
