Spanda Institute grew out of a Yoga School founded in 2009 by Nina Vukas. Since then, we have certified hundreds of Yoga Teachers through our 200-hour, 300-hour, Prenatal Yoga and other education courses. We keep growing, changing, evolving, and finding the common ground where Tradition and Modern Science meet.
You will find different courses on our pages, from fully certified 200-hour, 300-hour and Prenatal Teacher Training courses to individual modules and short refresher courses you might find interesting. We will keep adding different content, so check back soon if you don't find what you are looking for!
Our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training course is perfect for Yoga students who have been practising for a while and are ready to learn more but can’t afford to take the required time off to attend an in-person Yoga Teacher Training course. We will give you the tools you need to deepen your practice or become a confident Yoga Teacher. For more information and application, please visit our website.

This course is an in-depth overview of the Prenatal Yoga foundations. You can expect guidelines for curating classes for each trimester, learn the structure of the Spanda Prenatal Yoga classes, get a detailed insight into the Prenatal Namaskar, and strong foundations in the Anatomy and Physiology of pregnancy, labour, and birth. This course can be counted as CE with Yoga Alliance(18h), and is perfect for those who are not yet ready to commit to a full Prenatal & Postnatal TT.
All our courses at Spanda Institute are created to help you become a more knowledgeable, competent, mindful, and compassionate Yoga Teacher, qualities that will always be essential for teaching Yoga. However, they are often not enough. You will need other tools if you want to reach out to more people who might benefit from everything you know and build a thriving career doing what you love. We hope this module will help you bridge that gap, grow as a Yoga Teacher, and become not only great but also successful in what you do.
