Terms & Conditions
Course Progression and Requirements
- 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) is suitable for all levels of yogi, from the absolute beginners to the more advanced. However, it is advisable to learn some basic foundation and have a few months of consistent yoga practice prior to the course.
- 300 hours Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) is an advanced course for those that have already completed the 200hrs or have already been teaching for 3+ years with extensive experience. According to Yoga Alliance’s standard, it requires a 200YTT certification before the course.
- To register with Yoga Alliance as an RYT500, you will need a 200YTT certificate from a Registered Yoga School (RYS), as there is no standalone RYT300 certification.
- The 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) is a comprehensive program that combines both the 200-hour and 300-hour trainings. It is designed for individuals who are deeply committed to pursuing a career in yoga and who already have a well-developed personal practice. It is possible to undertake a 200-hour and 300-hour training back-to-back, provided the student feels ready for the intensity of the journey. If you are considering this pathway, we kindly ask that you connect with our team prior to booking, so we can ensure it’s the right fit for you.
- All participants must be at least 18 years of age at the time of enrollment. This is a requirement for Yoga Alliance certification. By completing your booking, you confirm that you meet this age requirement. House of Om is not liable for certificates that cannot be issued due to non-compliance with this condition.
- Any medical and psychological conditions, dietary requirements, and limitations that may affect the participation in the training must be disclosed and discussed prior to booking. All students will be required to sign a waiver before the training.
- It is the student’s responsibility to ensure their eligibility to travel to and enter Indonesia, Thailand, or India. Cancellations due to non-compliance or ineligibility to travel or enter the country do not qualify as force majeure.
200-Hour/ 300 Hour Hybrid Yoga Teacher Training
1. Program Structure:
The 200-hour/ 300-hour Hybrid Yoga Teacher Training combines online and in-person learning for a flexible training experience.
The 200-Hour / 300-Hour Yoga Alliance-accredited certificate will only be issued once both the online and in-person components have been successfully completed and verified by our team.
2. Online Component Flexibility:
Students may complete the online component before, or after the 10-day/ 14- day in-person immersion.
3. Certification Requirements:
Students must complete both the online and in-person components. Our team will confirm completion before issuing the certification.
-
Students may complete the online (theory) part either before or after the on-site training. Please note that full payment of the course is required to receive the online (theory) certificate before the in-person course.
-
To receive the full 200-Hour Yoga Alliance-accredited certificate during the graduation ceremony, the online (theory) certificate must be presented during the on-site training.
-
If the on-site training has started and the online (theory) certificate has not yet been obtained, only the in-person training certificate will be issued at the graduation ceremony.
-
After the on-site training has concluded, students may continue completing the online (theory) component. Once both components have been completed and officially verified, the full 200-Hour Yoga Alliance certificate will be sent via email.
Accommodation
- Please note that the rooms displayed on the House of Om website are representative examples. The actual room assigned to each student may vary in size, layout, and furnishings. Room allocation is based on availability.
- House of Om provides two or three meals per day, depending on the training location and specific program. Students should refer to their chosen training details to confirm what is included and prepare accordingly.
- The package price is per person. Students who wish to bring a significant other to stay with them during the course are required to book a private room. An additional person fee applies for the entire stay. The additional guest package includes meals and access to the resort’s common facilities.
- Any additional guest per night or per meal is also subject to an additional fee.
- For students staying in shared accommodation, all room arrangements and agreements are the responsibility of the students sharing the space. House of Om is unable to accommodate or intervene in personal matters or disputes arising within shared rooms. Students with specific accommodation preferences are encouraged to book a private room for greater convenience and flexibility.
- Male students travelling alone are required to book a private room. A male student who has accidentally booked a shared room should contact House of Om at care@houseofom.com.
- While accommodation is included in the YTT package, House of Om does not operate as a hotel or resort, and accommodation is provided solely as part of the training package rather than as the primary service.
