लोक Loka Yoga
Loka: 'World', 'Universe', 'Plane', 'Realm'.
Loka can also mean 'a state of light', 'heaven' or 'the ascension of the soul'.
Loka Yoga School is an international yoga teacher training school offering Level 1 (200 hour) teacher training, 100hr YTT, Yin Yoga teacher training, Breathwork Teacher Training, Meditation Teacher Training, Teacher Refresher courses and retreats, as well as Continuing Education courses (YACEP) accredited courses with Yoga Alliance International.
Our courses have been running in Bali and India since 2016 and we are in the process of expanding.
We believe that learning the art of teaching yoga should be taught in stunning natural environments, in turn nourishing the soul.
Be sure to leave having experienced the transformation of a life time.
The Experience of Loka Yoga
An internationally accredited and certified Yoga Teacher Training School
At Loka Yoga School, we offer an enriching yoga teacher training and retreats in Bali.
Setting you up for success
Loka Yoga holds firm in the belief that it’s only when we have developed a true understanding of the potent effects of the practice of yoga on the body, mind and spirit, that we can then effectively share these practices with others.
Until we have cultivated an understanding of the inner self, we are not equipped to be a catalyst in the transformation of our students.
Loka Yoga offers a comprehensive practical Yoga training program in how to teach yoga. These courses are suitable for experienced practitioners who would like to teach yoga in the future and also those who would simply like to deepen their own yoga practice.

Where Science Meets Spirituality...
Indian culture traditionally holds that there are seven planes or plateaus of the Universe,
built by the Supreme Being to represent the heavens, light and becoming.
These seven planes are:
burloka (the material world)
This plane represents our physical reality, the earth, and the tangible matter we interact with daily. In our practice, it connects directly to biomechanics, anatomy, and the grounding of the physical body in the present moment.
bhuvarloka (the world of becoming)
As the subtle space of energy, this plane bridges the physical and the mental. From a modern perspective, it relates to the nervous system and the breath, representing the dynamic flow of prana and life force that we learn to regulate.
svarloka (the world of light)
Known as the realm of light, this plane is associated with the mind, cognition, and intellect. It reflects our mental clarity, our neurological pathways, and the conscious illumination we achieve through focused meditation and mindfulness.
maharloka (the infinite world)
This is the infinite world of deep balance and higher perception. It is where we begin to transcend the individual ego, aligning our internal rhythms with broader universal frequencies to experience profound expansion and emotional regulation.
janaloka (the world of joy of spiritual living)
Embodying the pure joy of spiritual living, this plane represents heart-centred connection and higher creative expression. It is the neuro-somatic bliss we cultivate when living authentically, finding peace within, and sharing that joy with our community.
taparloka (the world of will or conscious force)
Rooted in the concept of tapas, this is the realm of conscious force, discipline, and willpower. It reflects the neuroplasticity of our minds – our innate ability to transform, adapt, and rewrite our limiting patterns through dedicated, continuous practice.
satyaloka (the world of the highest truth of being)
The ultimate peak of existence, where absolute truth and pure consciousness reside. This is the state of complete liberation and unity, where the physical science of our human being and the spirituality of the universe merge entirely as one.
