Yoga Alliance USA Registered School · Since 2009
Authentic Yoga Teacher Training in Goa & Bali
Maha means great. Mukti means freedom. Our purpose is simple — to help people live a healthy, vibrant, and happy life through the transformative power of Yoga, Pranayama, and Meditation.
Our Purpose
A Yogic Lifestyle, A Great Freedom
Through Yoga we build a strong, healthy physical body. Through Pranayama we keep the subtle body clear and balanced. Through Meditation we reach the calm, alpha state of mind where we can manifest the goals we hold for our life.
We guide people toward integrating Yoga, Pranayama, and Meditation into everyday life — so they can be free from suffering, both physical and mental. This is what a yogic lifestyle offers: a great freedom.

From a 5-day retreat to a full 200-hour certification — every programme at Mahamukti is built around how people actually learn, not what looks impressive in a brochure.

The Great Liberation - Yoga as It Was Meant to Be
In Sanskrit, Mahamukti means the great liberation — the highest state of freedom a human being can realise. Not a phrase chosen for its sound. It is the intention behind every course we teach, every retreat we host, and every student we welcome.
“Yoga is not what you do on the mat. It is what the mat does to you — over time, with patience, and with a teacher who understands why it matters.”
Founded by Yogi Akhilesh Bodhi — trained in the Sivananda Yoga Rishikesh lineage — Mahamukti has guided over 9,000 students across 50+ countries over two decades. Every curriculum carries the depth of a tradition refined across centuries.
Whether you arrive to build a personal practice, begin teaching professionally, or simply need a week to breathe and return to yourself — this is where that shift begins.
Real People. Real Transformations.

“Consistently praised for personal attention, authentic teaching, and life-changing experiences.”
Two Sacred Locations. Chosen With Intention.
The location of a yoga training shapes the practice. We chose Goa and Bali because they make the work quieter, deeper, and more real.
Goa, India
One of the last truly quiet beaches on the Goa coastline. Morning yoga with waves in the background. Evening meditation in genuine silence. A place that makes slowing down feel natural and transformative.
- 🧘 100 Hour YTTC in Goa — 12 Days
- 🏆 200 Hour YTTC in Goa — 24 Days
- 🌊 Yoga Retreats in Goa — 5, 6 & 7 Days
Bali, Indonesia
The spiritual heartland of Bali. Rice terraces, river gorges, and temples active for over a thousand years. The island’s energy draws serious practitioners from across the world — and now it draws you.

The Heart of
Mahamukti Yoga
Yogi Akhilesh Bodhi did not come to yoga through a studio membership. He came to it as a calling — and has treated it as one ever since.
Trained in the Sivananda Yoga lineage at Rishikesh, he began teaching in his early twenties and has not stopped since. Over two decades, he has taught in more than 50 countries across India, Europe, Southeast Asia, the Americas, and beyond. He has personally guided over 9,000 students. Every one of them.
What sets him apart is not the years or the countries. It is the fact that he is still genuinely curious about what yoga does to people — and still moved when a student has a breakthrough.
Our faculty includes dedicated specialists in yoga anatomy, philosophy, and asana. But at the centre of every Mahamukti training, you will find Yogi Akhilesh. That is not going to change.

Yes. All our 100-hour and 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training courses are registered with Yoga Alliance USA — the globally recognised certification standard. On completing your course, you are eligible to register as a 100Hr or 200Hr RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher), allowing you to teach yoga professionally anywhere in the world — studios, gyms, retreats, online, and private sessions.
No prior teaching experience is required. Our programmes welcome both complete beginners and intermediate practitioners. You need genuine interest and a willingness to commit fully. Yogi Akhilesh and the faculty tailor instruction to each group — nobody is left behind, and nobody is held back. Many of our most successful graduates came with no teaching background at all.
The fee covers accommodation for the full duration of training, three vegetarian meals per day, snacks, tea and refreshments, all study materials, certificate of completion, and cultural excursions. The only things not included are your international flights and personal expenses. Everything else — from the mat to the meals — is handled for you.
The curriculum and Yoga Alliance certification are equivalent across both locations. The difference is the environment. Goa offers a beachside training in the warmth of North India’s coastal culture — Mandrem’s quiet beach, yoga by the sea. Bali offers the lush, spiritually-charged landscape of Ubud, surrounded by rice fields and ancient temples. Both are genuinely extraordinary — most students choose based on which location resonates with them most deeply.
Yes. After completing the 200-hour course and registering with Yoga Alliance USA, you are qualified to teach yoga professionally worldwide — in studios, gyms, retreats, corporate wellness, and private sessions. The 200Hr RYT is the international entry standard for professional yoga teaching. Many Mahamukti graduates are now teaching full-time across Europe, North America, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
